Summary: In this paper, a multi-functional composite coating with low friction coefficient, high wear resistance, and excellent tribocorrosion resistance is fabricated on AZ31 Mg alloys. The composite coating exhibits better long-term corrosion resistance and wear and tribocorrosion resistance compared to the single micro-arc oxidation (MAO) coating. It can effectively protect the substrate from corrosion under sliding conditions.

Summary: In this research, a self-assembled amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC)@curcumin (Cur) loaded polymethyltrimethoxysilane (PMTMS) coating on micro-arc oxidation (MAO) coated magnesium (Mg) alloy was proposed to overcome the issues of rapid corrosion and bacterial infection in using biodegradable Mg alloy for biomedical materials. The coating exhibited favorable corrosion resistance, dual antibacterial ability, and good biocompatibility. Cur was employed as an antibacterial agent and photosensitizer for photothermal therapy. The core of ACC significantly improved the loading of Cur and the deposition of hydroxyapatite corrosion products during degradation, thus enhancing the long-term corrosion resistance and antibacterial activity of Mg alloys.

Summary: This paper investigates the influence of different amounts of phosphoric acid on the protective properties of phosphorylated PVA (PPVA) coatings on a Mg AZ31 alloy. The PPVA coatings and free-standing films were characterized and analyzed. The results demonstrate that PPVA coatings show interesting anticorrosion properties and can be considered as water-based alternatives to polysaccharide coatings.

Summary: In this research work, a Mg(OH)2 coating was formed on the surface of micro arc oxidation (MAO) coated AZ31 alloy through a low temperature hydrothermal method, incorporating sodium alginate (SA) and beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD)@curcumin (Cur). The coating exhibited excellent corrosion protection, multi-antibacterial ability and almost no toxicity to the cells. The photothermal performance of the coating was achieved through the light absorption of encapsulated Cur by beta-CD, while SA enhanced the binding force between the drug and the substrate.

Summary: To improve the corrosion resistance of magnesium alloy, Ca-Ph coatings were prepared on AZ31 alloy substrates by chemical conversion. The morphologies, compositions, and properties of the coatings were adjusted by treatment time and temperature. The coatings demonstrated significant corrosion protection to the substrate in the simulated body fluid (SBF) solution. The results indicated that higher temperatures favored the presence of hydroxyapatite and that the coating thickness had an enhanced influence on the corrosion performance.
