Characterization of the corrosion performances of as‐cast Mg–Al and Mg–Zn magnesium alloys with microarc oxidation coatings

Abstract: In the present study, corrosion-protective microarc oxidation (MAO) coatings were prepared on AZ31B, AZ80, and ZK60 cast magnesium alloy substrates in an alkaline silicate electrolyte. The corrosion performances of the uncoated and MAO-coated alloys were investigated using electrochemical and salt spray chamber corrosion tests. The microstructure characterization and experimental results show that among the three alloys studied, the ZK60 Mg alloy exhibited the best and AZ31B the least corrosion resistance unde… Show more

“…In general, Fe, Ni, and Cu exist as impurities in Mg-based alloys, which act as highly polarized local cathodes with respect to Mg and accelerate the degradation rate [4]. Moreover, a low Pilling-Bedworth (PB) ratio of MgO/Mg (0.81) leads to the formation of a loose oxide/hydroxide film on the surface, which increases the degradation rate [4][5][6].…”

“…[3,4] The application of high-quality surface barrier layers can effectively improve the corrosion resistance of magnesium alloys, such as protective layers obtained by chemical conversion treatment, micro-arc oxidation treatment, electroplating, and electroless plating. [5][6][7] Chemical conversion treatment has been widely developed due to the concise preparation process. Rare earth conversion coatings are some of the most promising substitutes for traditional chromate conversion coatings, which is a toxic compound and has been prohibited from being used at present.…”

“…To protect Mg alloy against corrosion and to maintain their mechanical integrity, various kinds of anti-corrosion techniques have been developed, such as phosphating treatment, microarc oxidation and polymer coating [8][9][10][11][12]. Although these surface modifications are ways of preventing corrosion and maintaining the mechanical strength of Mg alloy to some extent [13], there are a lack of chemical bonding interfaces between Mg alloy substrate and the protective coating.…”
