Abstract
The formation of protective multifunctional coatings on the MA8 magnesium alloy using the method of plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) and subsequent treatment with fluorocarbon materials has been suggested. A complex study of tribological characteristics and morphological features of the obtained composite coatings has been carried out. After the treatment of the PEO-coating with fluoroparaffins the wear resistance has increased by more than 10 times as compared to the base PEO-layer. Hydrophobic properties of the composite coatings have been studied. It was established the contact angle changed in the range from 122° up to 137° depending on the flouroparaffin type.
