Summary: The influence of sodium fluoride (NaF) concentration in silicate basic electrolyte on the corrosion resistance and biodegradability of micro-arc oxidation (MAO) coatings on Mg2Zn-Mn (ZM21) alloys was investigated. The results showed that increasing NaF concentration to 1.0 g/L resulted in a thicker and more hydrophilic MAO coating. Adding 1.0 g/L NaF enhanced corrosion resistance and adhesion, while excessive NaF concentration (> 1.0 g/L) reduced breakdown voltage and degraded coating quality. The MAO samples demonstrated reduced weight loss rate and pH value after immersion, indicating certain biological safety; and cytotoxicity and cell adhesion tests confirmed their biocompatibility.

Summary: In this study, Mg-2Zn-Mn alloy was surface modified using micro-arc oxidation (MAO) technique. The influence of potassium fluotitanate (K2TiF6) concentration in silicate basic electrolyte on the corrosion resistance and degradation of MAO coatings was investigated. It was found that TiF62- has a thickening effect on the coatings, and adding 0.25 and 0.50 g/L K2TiF6 results in better corrosion resistance. TiF62- concentration also affects the coating quality through the generation of F-. Anatase TiO2 formed by ionization of TiF62- plays a role in sealing the micro-pores of the MAO coating. The surface-modified Mg alloy exhibits improved hydrophilicity, reduced weight loss rate and pH value after immersion, and improved biocompatibility.

Summary: The long-term corrosion resistance of conventional micro-arc oxidation (MAO) coatings on magnesium alloy is limited by the inherent micro-scale pores. Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) and zinc gluconate (ZnG) loaded ZIF-8 (ZnG@ZIF-8) were synthesized and incorporated into the MAO coating to enhance the corrosion resistance. The (ZIF-8 + ZnG@ZIF-8)/MAO composite coating showed significant improvement in corrosion protection compared to the blank MAO coating.

Summary: Micro-arc oxidation (MAO) is an effective and environmentally friendly method for generating dense and homogeneous coatings with high corrosion resistance on magnesium alloys. However, the porous structure of MAO coatings can lead to reduced corrosion resistance due to the invasion of corrosive media. In this study, a novel one-step in situ growth of a pore-sealing coating on MAO-coated AZ31B alloy was achieved by hydrothermal treatment. The resulting coating effectively seals the micro-pores and micro-cracks of the MAO coating and exhibits improved corrosion resistance.

Summary: The corrosion resistance of micro-arc oxidation coating can be enhanced by surface modification. In this study, LDH/MAO film with a micro-/nano-structure is formed on AZ31 magnesium alloy surface by controlling the composition and concentration of the hydrothermal solution. A superhydrophobic surface is achieved by coating an OTES modifier on the LDH/MAO film. The composite coatings exhibit improved corrosion resistance due to the sealing of defects and superhydrophobic effect.
