Abstract

A range of ex situ and in situ analytical techniques were applied to gain insights into the formation and properties of the pre-formed Mefp-1 film on magnesium-1.0 wt.% calcium (Mg-1.0Ca) alloy. The results revealed that the Mefp-1 film pre-formed at pH 4.6 shows a net-like structure, whereas it is more packed at pH 8.5. in situ scanning micro-reference electrode technique results demonstrated the Mefp-1 films formed at both pH can effectively inhibit the localised corrosion of Mg-1.0Ca alloy. Moreover, the film pre-formed at pH 4.6 provides an increasing corrosion inhibition to Mg-1.0Ca alloy during 7 days of exposure.
