Corrosion and wear properties of PEO coatings formed on AM60B alloy in NaAlO2 electrolytes

Wettability and corrosion of alumina embedded nanocomposite MAO coating on nanocrystalline AZ31B magnesium alloy

“…This might be attributed to more heterogeneity of the coating, more unevenness of the coating/substrate interface, and percentage of porosity of the coating. This difference has been also reported by other researchers[18][19][20].…”

Improving the wear properties of AZ31 magnesium alloy under vacuum low-temperature condition by plasma electrolytic oxidation coating

“…It was reported that adding Al ions to the electrolyte made MgAl 2 O 4 forming during the PEO process. And the microhardness of MgAl 2 O 4 is about 1500-1800 HV, it can be expected that the formed MgAl 2 O 4 in the coating will benefit the improvement of wear resistance [27]. Our research shows that the Al ions played a very important role in determining wear properties of the obtained coatings under vacuum low-temperature condition.…”

Silicate-based Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (PEO) coatings with incorporated CeO2 particles on AM50 magnesium alloy

“…Regarding magnesium alloys, most of the electrolytes are based on silicates, phosphates and aluminates containing KOH [13][14][15]. Recent developments on this area are focusing on the use of additives, fluorozirconate-based electrolytes and addition of particles [16][17][18].…”
