Abstract
To enhance the corrosion resistance of magnesium alloys, an anti-corrosion composite film was prepared by combining anodic oxidation and sol-gel technology. Experimental results indicate that after anodization at 17.5V for 3 min, the composite film obtained through sealing with an MPTMS-modified sol exhibited significant improvements in physical properties. The thickness of the film reached 24.3 μm, its hardness was measured at 164.7 HV, and it demonstrated good surface uniformity. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy revealed that the impedance modulus at low frequency (|Z| at 0.01 Hz) increased by nearly two orders of magnitude. Furthermore, this study thoroughly explores the corrosion protection mechanism of the composite film, highlighting the role of the sol-gel layer in occupying micro-pores and micro-cracks to form a denser and more uniform protective layer. The dual-layer protection provided by the combination of anodic oxidation and sol-gel layers significantly enhances the overall corrosion resistance of the magnesium alloy.
