Corrosion Behavior of Hydrotalcite Film on AZ31 Alloy in Simulated Body Fluid

Abstract

The hydrotalcite (HT) film is a promising bioactive coating for magnesium alloys. In the present study, we investigate the corrosion behavior of HT film in the simulated body fluid (SBF), and compare with which in NaCl solution. The HT film can provide a very plummy initial protection to the AZ31 alloy in SBF. The corrosion behavior of the HT film in the two solutions is quite different. When in 0.1 mol·L−1 NaCl solution, the film is dissolved gradually, and filiform corrosion is predominant after 3 days immersion. While in Hank’s solution, the thickness and composition of the film are changed. A corrosion products layer mainly consisted of Mg/Ca–PO43−/HPO42−, and minor of CaCO3 is deposited on the top of HT film, which enhances the barrier effect of the HT film. As a result, except for local pit corrosion at several active places, most of the area of the coated sample still remains integral even after immersion for 15 days. It is demonstrated that the HT film has better corrosion protection effect in SBF than in NaCl solution.

Corrosion and wear performances of hydroxyapatite and boron-containing TiO2 composite coatings on Ti6Al7Nb alloy

“…Moreover, the incorporation of phosphorus and calcium can also be seen in figures 2(b) and figure 2(c), respectively. In the spectrum of P 2p, two peaks at 132.5 eV and 134 eV were detected, indicating PO 4 3− and HPO 4 2− , respectively [81,82]. Because of the spin-orbit splitting, the high-resolution spectrum Ca 2p was divided into The titania layer formed on the surfaces of the specimens after PEO treatment was highly rough and porous (figure 3).…”

Effect of Polyaniline and Graphene Oxide Composite Powders on the Protective Performance of Epoxy Coatings on Magnesium Alloy Surfaces

“…(1) Increased barrier performance of coating. Generally, some layered materials, such as montmorillonite [9], hydrotalcites [10], glass [11], and graphene [12], have attracted intense research interest because their lamellar elements increase the lengths of the diffusion pathways of oxygen, water, and aggressive ions [13]. In recent years, two-dimensional graphene oxide (GO) has attracted extensive attention because of its high specific surface area, nanosheet layer, and excellent barrier ability [14,15].…”
