“…Jiang et al formed thick epoxy coatings (~100 ± 10 μm) on AA2024 aluminium alloy [2,3]. Among the methods of protective coating formation on the surface of Al alloys, one of the most promising methods is plasma electrolytic oxidation [5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15]. Serdechnova et al grew layered double hydroxides on PEO-pretreated AA2024 Al alloy [6].…”
