Abstract

Plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO), as a cost effective and environmentally friendly technology, has been applied on magnesium and its alloys to improve wear and corrosion resistance. Additionally, combining with particles addition in the electrolyte and/or various post-treatments could diminish the intrinsic structural defects of the PEO coatings and provide multifunctionalities, including wear resistance, corrosion resistance, self-lubrication, and self-healing. This paper reviews recent progress on PEO composite coatings prepared by in situ incorporation of functional particles and/or post-treatments on magnesium and its alloys. The focus is given to the microstructural and functional changes of the PEO coatings, particularly on the wear and corrosion behaviors.
