Superhydrophobic coatings are highly promising for protecting material surfaces and for wide applications. In this study, superhydrophobic composites, comprising a rhombic-dodecahedral zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8@SiO2), have been manufactured onto AZ31 magnesium alloy via chemical etching and dip-coating methods to enhance stability and corrosion resistance. Herein, we report on a simple strategy to modify hydrophobic hexadecyltrimethoxysilan (HDTMS) on ZIF-8@SiO2 to significantly improve the property of repelling water. We show that various liquids can be stable on its surface and maintain a contact angle higher than 150°. The morphologies and chemical composition were characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FI-IR). In addition, the anticorrosion and antiattrition properties of the film were assessed by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization and HT, respectively. Such a coating shows promising potential as a material for large-scale fabrication.

Magnesium (Mg) alloys are ideal candidates for biodegradable orthopedic implants, whereas the clinical utility is hindered due to excessive corrosion behavior. In this study, the novel hierarchical coating was designed for AZ31 Mg alloy to control corrosion and improve bioactivity. The process involved laser texturing treatment of the Mg substrate, followed by hierarchical coating where the bioactive glass coating (BC) as sublayer and BG-polyvinyl alcohol hydrogel composite (HC) as upper layer. The morphology, structure, interfacial properties and corrosion behavior of Mg specimens with coating treatment were investigated via SEM, EDS, XRD, XPS and electrochemical test. The cytocompatibility and osteoinductivity of MC3T3-E1 cells seeded on Mg specimens was investigated in vitro cell proliferation assay. The results of study demonstrated the mechanically interlocked interface could be created by laser texturing, thus significantly improving coating adhesion. With further coating treatment, the BC layer within crystalline phase could act as stable corrosion barrier, to reduce mass loss of Mg alloy immersed in simulated body fluid (SBF). Based on this, the HC coating was observed to effectively seal pores of BC layer as dense upper layer for hierarchical design (MgL-HC@BC), thus resulting in exceptional corrosion resistance and ability to maintain the pH in the physiological range, and consequently promoting cell adhesion with osteogenic differentiation. As such, this work presented a feasible and highly effective strategy for fabricating advanced bio-functional surfaces on biodegradable magnesium implants.

Composite coatings consisting of polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and 40 nm silicon dioxide (SiO 2 ) nanoparticles (PPS-PTFE/SiO 2 ) with SiO 2 in the range of 0–4 g/l were successfully prepared on AZ31 Mg alloys by a simple spray process. The morphology, composition, water contact angle (WCA), wear behavior and corrosion properties of the composite coatings were measured by using SEM, FT-IR, OCA20, sandpaper abrasion and electrochemical workstation, respectively. Effects of SiO 2 content on the wear behavior and corrosion properties of the coatings were studied. It is found that micro-sized protrusions distribute on the surface of the coatings, and a fibrous-network structure of PTFE arranges on the protrusions. WCAs of the PPS-PTFE/SiO 2 (0–4 g/l) coating are in the range of (152°–145.5°) ± 0.3° and the sliding angles (SAs) are less than 5°. The WCAs of the un-abraded and 10 m-abraded-on-sandpaper PPS-PTFE/SiO 2 (4 g/l) coating are 145.5°±0.3° and 142.5°±0.3°, respectively, implying the PPS-PTFE/SiO 2 coating is a robust superhydrophobic one with good wear resistance. Due to the superhydrophobic characteristics, the PPS-PTFE-based coatings show superior corrosion resistance in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution to pristine AZ31 Mg alloys. Owing to the excellent superhydrophobicity, wear resistance and corrosion resistance properties, the robust PPS-PTFE/SiO 2 coating is regarded to possess great potential to be applied in automobiles and navigation industries in future.

Biodegradable magnesium and its alloys have attracted much attention, as they have been used as cardiovascular stents recently because of their biodegradation after implantation. However, their corrosion resistance, hemocompatibility and surface biocompatibility are needed for practical applications. In this work, heparinization of the plasma electrolytic oxidation/poly( l -lactic acid) (PEO/PLLA) composite coating on biodegradable AZ31 alloy was achieved by the strong adhesion of mussel-inspired polydopamine (PDAM). The corrosion resistance of the coated substrates was evaluated in simulated body fluid. In particular, the hemolysis ratio and platelet adhesion tests were conducted to evaluate the hemocompatibility of the composite coatings. The in vitro cytotoxicity of the composite coatings was evaluated with human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). The adhesion and proliferation of HUVECs and human umbilical artery smooth muscle cells (HUASMCs) directly incubated on the composite coatings were also investigated. The results showed that although PDAM modification and further heparinization reduced the corrosion resistance of the PEO/PLLA composite coating, the protection of the coating for the substrate was mainly maintained. Moreover, PDAM modification and further heparinization significantly suppressed the adhesion of platelets and had little influence on sustaining a low hemolysis ratio thus resulting in good surface hemocompatibility of the composite coating. The in vitro cell test demonstrated that none of the composite coatings presented obvious cytotoxicity. Significantly, after surface heparinization, the composite coating became more suitable for HUVEC growth and simultaneously inhibited HUASMC growth. The results show that further modification of the PEO/PLLA composite coating on biodegradable magnesium alloy is a promising method to obtain good surface hemocompatibility for anticoagulation and to regulate the cell fate for fast re-endothelialization while sustaining the corrosion resistance of biodegradable magnesium-based cardiovascular stents.

To enhance anti-corrosion property of AZ31 magnesium alloys, slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces (SLIPSs) were prepared on benzoate-intercalated Mg-Al layered double hydroxides (LDHs). The typical morphology of SLIPSs was determined using a scanning electron microscope, and the successful loading of benzoate ions was confirmed by an X-ray diffractometer (XRD). Especially, this work focused on revealing how hydrothermal time affected the resistance to corrosion of SLIPSs. The electrochemical results indicated that when the hydrothermal duration was 24 h, the developed SLIPS exhibited remarkably improved corrosion resistance accompanied by the lowest corrosion current density of 2.5 × 10−3 μA cm−2. Furthermore, the results of immersion test demonstrated the superiority of SLIPSs in anti-corrosion durability. Based on the obtained results, the prepared SLIPSs can be promising candidates for the improvement in anti-corrosion performance of magnesium alloys.

A strategy based on chelating agent addition was used to assist the in-situ growth of MgAl-layered double hydroxides (LDHs) films on magnesium alloy AZ31 in a relatively mild condition. The growth behavior of MgAl-LDH films was studied on the magnesium alloy AZ31 substrate as the sole source of Al 3+ and/or adding aluminum compounds as a supplementary source of respective ions. The composition, structure, corrosion resistance , and formation mechanism of LDH films were investigated and discussed. Results showed that the LDH-coated samples could effectively retard the corrosion of magnesium alloy. A thicker Mg (OH) 2 /MgAl-LDH composite film with larger flake size was formed without additional aluminum source. MgAl-LDH film fabricated with moderate additional Al 3+ concentrations showed better corrosion resistance and an interesting stable network structure on a flat surface both covered/consisting of very fine LDH flakes.

Montmorillonite (MMT) film was prepared on the surface of alkali-heat treated Mg alloys by one-step hydrothermal method. The structure and composition of MMT film were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The corrosion resistance of MMT film in simulated body fluid (SBF) was investigated using electrochemical tests and immersion experiments. The experimental results showed that with the extension of hydrothermal time, the corrosion resistance of film increased and then decreased. With the increase of MMT powder mass fraction in precursor solution, the corrosion resistance of films also increased and then weakened. The best performance of MMT films was obtained at hydrothermal time of 12 h and MMT powder mass fraction of 2 wt%, with an impedance value of 9.77×10 6 Ω·cm 2 , which is an improvement of four orders of magnitude compared to substrate, and the efficiency of corrosion protection was up to 100%. The ion exchange properties, barrier effect and inertness characteristics of MMT provide excellent corrosion protection for magnesium substrates. This study provides a new coating strategy for the preparation of biodegradable magnesium alloys with excellent corrosion resistance and biocompatibility for use as biomedical materials.

A TiO 2 nanofilm was prepared on the surface of AZ31 magnesium alloy with controllable thickness through atomic layer deposition (ALD) technique, which can adjust the corrosion behaviors of AZ31 Mg alloy. Compared with the untreated Mg alloys, corrosion current densities ( i corr ) can decline by 58% in the 200-cycles TiO 2 -covered Mg alloy and further decline by up to 74% with the thickness of nanofilm up to 63 nm (400 cycles). The subsequent modification with a cross-linked conversion layer of 3-amino-propyltriethoxysilane (APTES) by a dipping method can produce a compact silane coating on TiO 2 nanofilm, which can seal pinholes of TiO 2 nanofilm and serve as a barrier to further adjust the corrosion behavior of the substrate. The i corr can decline about two orders of magnitude in the TiO 2 /silane composite coating. Making the adjustable corrosion rate come true, which can be attributed to the precise control on the thickness of metal oxide nanofilm and additional protection from the compact silane coating. In vitro study discloses that the TiO 2 /silane hybrid coating shows higher expression of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and can promote cellular adhesion and proliferation with better cytocompatibility than untreated Mg alloy.

Magnesium alloys are widely used in aerospace and automobile industries because of their lightweight and high strength properties . However, the occurrence of surface corrosion limits their application. Among the protection methods of magnesium alloys, the sol-gel method has received a growing attention recently because of its green economy, high efficiency, and stability. However, the sol-gel method cannot provide corrosion protection for an extended duration in saline solutions. In this study, a novel sol-gel coating via catechol/lysine (CA/Lys) polymerization has been prepared via a facile method and systematically investigated. The CA/Lys co-deposition process was studied by ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy. Corrosion performances of the coating were evaluated in aqueous 0.1 M NaCl by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and hydrogen evolution measurements. The experimental results showed that the CA/Lys-modified sol-gel coating provided corrosion protection for up to 18 days, while the unmodified sol-gel coating failed after only 3 days of testing. The polymerized CA/Lys was adsorbed by and then diffused into the sol-gel coating by filling in the macropores or nanopores and the nano-SiO 2 cross-linked network, greatly improving the compactness of the coating. In addition, albeit the thickness of CA/Lys modified coating being only 9 µm, this material was able to provide a long-lasting corrosion protection. This study introduced a novel approach to greatly improve the corrosion resistance of the sol-gel film for magnesium alloys by adopting phenolamines to modify the sol-gel for anticorrosion. This approach can provide a new strategy for Mg alloy corrosion protection.

A new organic-inorganic composite coating was generated on AZ31 alloy surface with sol-gel method to improve the anti-corrosion performance and biocompatibility of AZ31 alloy in the physiological environment. The results of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic polarization , pH variations in modified-simulated body fluid (m-SBF) demonstrated that the silane/Mg(OH) 2 composite coating significantly enhanced the anti-corrosion ability and slowed down the degradation of AZ31 alloy under in vitro condition. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) showed that the major composition of in-situ formation layer was Mg(OH) 2 . The surface morphology , chemical and phase constitutions of the composite coating were detected using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results demonstrated that the composite coating was uniform and defect-free. X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) was also employed to characterize the corrosion products of all specimens immersed in m-SBF after 30 days. MTT and ALP tests indicated that the composite coating greatly enhanced the cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of osteoblasts on the AZ31 alloy surface.

Controlled corrosion and proper biological response are key demands for biodegradable Mg-alloy based vascular stents. To achieve those properties, herein, a chemical conversion coating was fabricated through layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly via the sequential assembly of poly (dimethyl-diallyl ammonium chloride) (PDDA), epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and heparin (Hep). Each component in the coating played a unique role, in which EGCG chelates Mg ions and enhances the stability of the coating by introducing multiple intermolecular interactions, while PDDA effectively enhances the resistance against chloride corrosion, and Hep provides adequate hemocompatibility and promotes endothelialization. Electrochemical assay and immersion test demonstrated that the synergistic combination of PDDA and EGCG effectively suppressed the corrosion rate. A systematic in vitro and ex-vivo evaluation demonstrated an impressive antithrombotic performance, along with a selective promotion of endothelial cells (ECs) proliferation and inhibition of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) growth and macrophages (MAs) activation. More importantly, subcutaneous implantation and implantation in the abdominal aorta wall indicated that the PDDA/EGCG/Hep-modified implants displayed good corrosion resistance and mild tissue response, enhanced endothelialization and suppressed intima hyperplasia. These promising outcomes revealed the clinical potential of the PDDA/EGCG/Hep coating on AZ31 as biodegradable cardiovascular implants.

In order to improve the corrosion resistance of a biodegradable magnesium alloy, a series of phytic acid/3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (γ-APS) hybrid coatings was prepared on AZ31 magnesium alloys by dipping the magnesium alloy into the mixing solution of phytic acid and γ-APS. During the preparation of hybrid coatings, the pH values of the mixing solutions greatly affected the uniformity of the coatings and subsequently influenced their corrosion resistance. Electrochemical tests indicated that the hybrid coating prepared in the solution of pH = 8.0 could highly improve corrosion resistance of AZ31 magnesium alloys. Meanwhile, corrosion current density of the hybrid coating coated sample was significantly decreased from the uncoated sample of 138.1 ± 11.9 to 8.5 ± 0.8 μA cm −2 . Immersion test in simulated body fluid revealed that the cracks on the surface of the hybrid coating gradually healed up during the lengthy immersion.
