Abstract: | Corrosion behavior and resistance of plasma electrolyte oxidation (PEO)-treated AZ31 Mg alloy were investigated by immersion and potentiodynamic polarization tests in 0.5 M NaCl solution in view of the PEO film thickness and sealing treatment of the PEO films in boiling water. The PEO films were formed using pulse current for various durations in 1 M NaOH?+?0.5 M NaF solution. Filiform corrosion was observed during the immersion test while pitting corrosion occurred during the potentiodynamic polarization test, irrespective of sealing treatment of the PEO films. Corrosion resistance of AZ31 Mg alloy was improved remarkably by the formation of thicker PEO films and their sealing treatments. |
