A slippery liquid-infused porous surface (SLIPS) was developed, based on MgAl-layered double hydroxide (LDH), in order to improve the corrosion and wear resistance of AZ31 Mg alloys. In particular, different concentrations of SiO 2 nanoparticles were incorporated into the silicone oil to further ameliorate the performances of Mg alloys, which can effectively seal the nanopores constructed by MgAl-LDH. With increasing SiO 2 nanoparticle concentration, the nanosheet microstructure of MgAl-LDH was gradually covered by the hierarchical structure of SiO 2 nanoparticles. The formed composite SiO 2 -SLIPSs exhibited good surface hydrophobicity and superior corrosion and wear resistance. When the concentration of SiO 2 nanoparticle was 10 mg mL −1 , the composite SLIPS showed the best performances, with the lowest corrosion current density of 2.43 × 10 -10 A cm −2 and wear volume of 0.041 mm 3 . The developed composite SLIPSs could find wide applications in effective corrosion and wear protection of Mg alloys in industry.

Purpose This study aims to develop a sol-gel-based coating to provide a long-lasting corrosion protection on AZ31 Mg alloy. Silane-based sol-gel coatings have been successfully applied to Mg alloys for corrosion protection. However, the micro or nano defects formed during condensation and solidification will cause the coating failure during a long-lasting immersion in a saline solution. More durable corrosion-protective sol-gel coatings are needed. Design/methodology/approach A sol-gel-based coating was modified on AZ31 Mg alloy by levodopa (DOPA). The long-lasting corrosion protection mechanism was studied by multiple electrochemical testing methods and surface characterization techniques. Findings Long-term testing by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in aqueous 0.1 M NaCl indicated that the modified DOPA@sol-gel coating exhibited significant corrosion protection performance (>14 days). In comparison, the DOPA-free sol-gel coating failed only after three days of testing. The improved corrosion protection is attributed to the self-polymerized DOPA filling to the micro or nano defects in the glassy cross-linked networks of the sol-gel coating, which greatly improves the compactness of the coating. Originality/value The method of this study is simple and easy to process, the raw materials are green and the protective effect is excellent, which is of significance for the study of magnesium alloy corrosion protection.

Electrophoretic deposition (EPD) coating has become a hot topic due to its simple experiment, wide application, and wide material range. In this study, the PTFE coating was successfully prepared by electrophoretic deposition through the systematic study of electrophoretic deposition kinetics. In particular, in the dispersion system with ethanol as solvent, Nafion and NaOH were simultaneously added as additives to obtain a beneficial synergistic effect on PTFE electrophoretic deposition. And the best additive scheme is: when the concentration of PTFE was 6 g·L− 1 and the deposition time was increased to 20 min, adding 0.10 g·L− 1 Nafion and 0.10 mM NaOH simultaneously. Compared with the scheme with Nafion being only additive, the addition of NaOH can improve the deposition rate from 0.16 mg·cm− 2 to 0.98 mg·cm− 2, and the deposition rate increases by about 6 times. According to electrophoretic deposition kinetics, there is an obvious critical transition time between linear and parabolic regions in the preparation of the coating. Prolonging the arrival of critical transition time is beneficial to effectively achieve stable growth of the coating in a longer time. It is found that a more ideal additive can not only increase the deposition rate of coating, but also significantly accelerate the arrival of critical transition time. Meanwhile, the deposition voltage also has an important influence on the critical transition time. Increasing the voltage can improve the deposition speed but shorten the critical transition time. Therefore, the application of deposition voltage needs to strike a balance between deposition rate and critical time point. The optimal deposition conditions proposed in this work are: deposition voltage 60 V, deposition time 20 min, additive 0.10 g·L− 1 Nafion and 0.10 mM NaOH.

The rapid degradation of magnesium-based implants in physiological environments in vivo not only will quickly deteriorate their mechanical strengths but will also lead to a severe change of the micro-environment around the implants, which may cause the final failure of magnesium-based implants. In this work, a polycaprolactone (PCL) layer was prepared to seal the plasma electrolytic oxidization coating (PEO) to form a PEO/PCL composite coating on a biodegradable AZ31 magnesium alloy, followed by further surface functionalization with polydopamine. The in vitro degradation behaviors of the bare AZ31 alloy and coated samples were evaluated in a simulated body fluid (SBF) using the potentiodynamic polarization curve test and the static immersion test. The bioactivity of the samples was investigated using the SBF soaking test. The cytocompatibility of all samples was evaluated using the cytotoxicity test and analysis of the adhesion and proliferation of osteoblast cells (MC3T3-E1) directly cultivated on the sample surface. The results showed that the PCL layer successfully sealed the pores of the PEO coating, and then the polydopamine layer formed on its surface. The in vitro degradation tests showed that the PEO/PCL composite coating improved the corrosion resistance of the AZ31 alloy in SBF with a more positive corrosion potential and a lower corrosion current density. Due to the protection of the PEO/PCL composite coating, the surrounding environment showed nearly no influence on the degradation of the coated sample, which led to no obvious local alkalization and hydrogen evolution. Moreover, compared with the AZ31 alloy and PEO coating, the PEO/PCL composite coating was more suitable for cell adhesion and proliferation. After further surface functionalization by polydopamine, the corrosion resistance of the composite coating was maintained, while its bioactivity was significantly enhanced with a large amount of hydroxyapatite (HA) formed on its surface after immersion in SBF. The initial cell adhesion and spread were also improved by the polydopamine. By further immobilizing polyhexamethylene biguanidine (PHMB) onto the coating surface via the assistance of polydopamine, good antibacterial ability was obtained. This feasible method for fabricating a cytocompatible and antibacterial composite coating on a biodegradable AZ31 alloy may be promising in implant applications due to the osteointegration and anti-infection properties of these materials post operation.

The conventional slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces (SLIPSs) provide relatively limited corrosion protection and self-healing performance for AZ31 Mg alloys. To this end, 8-hydroxyquinoline (8-HQ) was incorporated into a zirconium-based metal–organic framework UiO-66 through coordination (8-HQ@UiO-66), which was then dispersed into silicone oil to fabricate nanoparticle-enhanced-SLIPSs (8-HQ@UiO-66-SLIPSs). Especially, the influences of 8-HQ@UiO-66 concentration on the surface morphology, surface hydrophobicity, and corrosion resistance were studied. It was found that the surface hydrophobicity first increased and then decreased with increasing concentration, showing the highest water contact angle of 121.2° at a concentration of 1 mg mL–1 (8-HQ@UiO-66-SLIPS-1). This was attributed to the development of well-constructed hierarchical micro/nanostructures. Moreover, it also exhibited the best anticorrosion property, with the lowest corrosion current density of 1.24 × 10–10 A cm–2 and the highest impedance modulus of 9.88 × 108 Ω cm2 at 0.01 Hz, primarily associated with the synergistic interaction of 8-HQ and UiO-66. Further, the self-healing performance was evaluated using the scanning vibration electrode technique (SVET), verifying the superior self-healing performance of 8-HQ@UiO-66-SLIPS-1. Hence, the nanoparticle-enhanced-SLIPSs exhibit considerable potential in the corrosion protection of Mg alloys, thereby accelerating their extensive applications in industry.

NiAl-layered double hydroxide (NiAl-LDH) coatings grown in-situ on AZ31 Mg alloy were prepared for the first time utilizing a facile hydrothermal method. The surface morphologies, structures, and compositions of the NiAl-LDH coatings were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), three dimensional (3D) optical profilometer, X-ray diffractometer (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FT-IR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results show that NiAl-LDH coating could be successfully deposited on Mg alloy substrate using different nickel salts, i.e., carbonate, nitrate, and sulfate salts. Different coatings exhibit different surface morphologies, but all of which exhibit remarkable enhancement in corrosion protection in 3.5 wt % NaCl corrosive electrolyte. When nickel nitrate was employed especially, an extremely large impedance modulus at a low frequency of 0.1 Hz (|Z|f= 0.1 Hz), 11.6 MΩ cm2, and a significant low corrosion current density (jcorr) down to 1.06 nA cm−2are achieved, demonstrating NiAl-LDH coating’s great potential application in harsh reaction conditions, particularly in a marine environment. The best corrosion inhibition of NiAl-LDH/CT coating deposited by carbonate may partially ascribed to the uniform and vertical orientation of the nanosheets in the coating.

A novel CeO 2 /MgAl 2 O 4 composite coating, fabricated via a cathode plasma electrolytic deposition (CPED) technique followed by hydrothermal synthesis, was developed in this study to explore its potential application as corrosion protection for AZ31 magnesium alloys. The microstructure observed through scanning electron microscopy indicated that reducing the duty cycle of the power source within a reasonable range during the CPED process was beneficial to form a uniform and dense MgAl 2 O 4 coating, which served as an ideal adhesive matrix for a uniform CeO 2 coating as the outermost layer. The results of electrochemical impedance spectra and neutral salt spray tests showed that the decoration of the CeO 2 layer significantly improved the corrosion resistance of the CeO 2 /MgAl 2 O 4 composite coating compared to the single MgAl 2 O 4 coating and bare substrate. Cross-cut tests revealed that the adhesion of the MgAl 2 O 4 coating and the CeO 2 /MgAl 2 O 4 composite coating were both excellent due to the strong binding between the MgAl 2 O 4 coating and the substrate.

In this study, we aim to enhance the corrosion and wear resistance of AZ31 magnesium alloy using electrophoretic deposition (EPD) technology to apply a hydrophobic polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) coating. Polyethyleneimine (PEI) serves as a charged dispersant, facilitating uniform deposition of PTFE particles on the alloy surface. Results demonstrate a significant reduction in corrosion current density (from 67.5 μA/cm2to 5.2 μA/cm2) and improved wear resistance (wear volume decreased from 0.24167 mm3to 0.00167 mm3) in a 3.5 wt% NaCl solution compared to uncoated alloy. Moreover, the friction coefficient of the coated sample decreases. These findings underscore the potential of nano-PTFE coatings prepared via EPD in enhancing AZ31 magnesium alloy’s corrosion and wear resistance, providing a foundation for future protective coating design and optimization.

A super-hydrophobic anti-corrosion film was facilely prepared via in situ growth of layered double hydroxides (LDHs) on the etched AZ31 magnesium alloy and then modification by 1H, 1H, 2H, 2H-perfluorooctyltrimethoxysilane (PFOTMS) in this work. The morphology, structure, composition, surface roughness and water contact angles (WCA), and the anti-corrosion performance of the samples were investigated. The results revealed that the micro/nano hierarchical surface morphology of the films was composed of island structures obtained after chemical etching and MgAl-LDH nanowalls grown in situ. The best hydrophobicity (CA = 163°) was obtained on the MgAl-LDHs with the maximum surface roughness. Additionally, the potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and immersion test indicated that the super-hydrophobic LDH films provided better corrosion resistance to AZ31 magnesium alloy due to the double-protection derived from the LDHs and super-hydrophobic properties. Furthermore, the contact angle could be kept at above 140° after dipped in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution for 6 days.

In this work, a novel stearic acid modified nickel-based (NiSA) superhydrophobic composite coating with good anti-corrosion properties was prepared on magnesium alloy AZ31 surface through electroless nickel-phosphorus plating, electrodeposition of porous nickel, and decoration with stearic acid. Surface topography, chemical groups, and structural compositions of the NiSA coating were characterized through scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray diffraction (XRD), respectively. Adhesion of the NiSA coating was evaluated by a tape test method, and corresponding water contact angle (WCA) and water sliding angle (WSA) were tested by a contact angle meter. Results indicate that WCA value of the NiSA coating was 154.6° ± 3.7°, and WSA value was 5.9° ± 1.7°, indicating a high superhydrophobicity. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and Tafel fitting reveal that the corrosion current density of the coating ( j corr = 1.41 × 10 −8 A cm −2 ) was three orders of magnitude lower than that of the bare magnesium alloy, and the corresponding low-frequency impedance modulus (| Z | f = 0.01 Hz = 554.65 kΩ cm 2 ) increased by three orders of magnitude, verifying high corrosion resistance. Moreover, all contact angles (CA) of common liquid stains in life were higher than 150°, indicating the good anti-fouling capability of the NiSA coating.

Mg alloys have excellent mechanical and physical properties. Unfortunately, the poor corrosion resistance becomes the main disadvantage of the application of such materials in aqueous and atmospheric media. Although the sol-gel-based coating has attracted significant attention for alloys in corrosion protection, most of the existing sol-gel coatings are unable to give a long-term protection for the substrate against corrosion in saline solutions due to micro-/ nano-pores contained in its glassy sol-gel networks. To address this issue, a new sol-gel coating was prepared by utilizing the strong adhesion property of polydopamine (PDA) to provide a highly condensed sol-gel-based coating (PDA@sol-gel) on Mg alloy AZ31. Long-term corrosion testing by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in aqueous 0.1 M NaCl indicated that the prepared PDA@sol-gel coating exhibited a substantially improved corrosion protection performance with a test duration of over 20 days. In comparison, the unmodified coating failed after 3 days of immersion in aqueous NaCl. The improved anti-corrosion performance may be attributed to the self-polymerized PDA filling the micro-/ nano defects in the cross-linked network of the SiO 2 sol-gel, which greatly improves the compactness of the coating. This work presented a new approach to significantly improve the corrosion protection performance of magnesium alloys by dopamine-modified sol-gel coating, which can find ample applications in a wide range of industries.

Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have been widely used as “smart” containers in the field of metal corrosion protection, and have broad industrial prospects. It is environmentally friendly and feasible to use aliphatic carboxylates and corresponding acids as substitutes for harmful corrosion inhibitors. However, previous studies rarely involved comparing the anti-corrosion mechanisms of different aliphatic acids modified on the LDH surface, and the durability of the prepared coatings also needs to be improved. In this work, MgAl-LDH laminates were grown in situ on AZ31 substrates by a hydrothermal method, and then modified by sodium laurate (SL) and sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS). Due to the physical barrier effect of the LDH layers, the spatial repulsion effect of the air film and the ion exchange reactions in the interlayer galleries, the functional coatings prepared exhibit smart and superior anti-corrosion performance on the magnesium substrates in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution. Compared with LDH-SDBS-8 coating, the obtained superhydrophobic LDH-SL-8 coating shows more excellent long-term corrosion protection owing to the stronger intercalation capacity.
