Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (PEO) was applied to extruded ZM21 Mg alloys to improve their corrosion resistance in a chloride-containing environment. PEO was carried out in DC mode and voltage control in a fluoride-free electrolyte. Potentiodynamic polarization tests in 3.5 wt.% NaCl aqueous solution and neutral salt spray (NSS) tests were carried out. Microstructural and profilometric characterization, as well as NSS tests were performed in different conditions: (i) bare ZM21, (ii) PEO-treated ZM21, (iii) powder-coated ZM21 (without PEO interlayer), and (iv) PEO treated ZM21 with powder coating top layer (carboxyl-functionalized polyester resin). The PEO + powder coating double layer was identified as the best-performing corrosion protection.
L'ossidazione elettrolitica al plasma (PEO) è stata applicata alle leghe estruse ZM21 Mg per migliorare la loro resistenza alla corrosione in un ambiente contenente cloruri. La PEO è stata effettuata in modalità DC e controllo di tensione in un elettrolita privo di fluoruri. Sono stati eseguiti test di polarizzazione potenziodinamica in una soluzione acquosa di NaCl al 3,5 % in peso e test di nebbia salina neutra (NSS). La caratterizzazione microstrutturale e profilometrica, così come i test NSS sono stati eseguiti in diverse condizioni: (i) ZM21 nudo, (ii) ZM21 trattato con PEO, (iii) ZM21 rivestito con polvere (senza interstrato PEO), e (iv) ZM21 trattato con PEO con strato superiore di rivestimento in polvere (resina poliestere carbossilica). Il doppio strato PEO + rivestimento in polvere è stato identificato come la migliore protezione contro la corrosione.

Abstract
Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (PEO) was applied to extruded ZM21 Mg alloys to improve their corrosion resistance in a chloride-containing environment. PEO was carried out in DC mode and voltage control in a fluoride-free electrolyte. Potentiodynamic polarization tests in 3.5 wt.% NaCl aqueous solution and neutral salt spray (NSS) tests were carried out. Microstructural and profilometric characterization, as well as NSS tests were performed in different conditions: (i) bare ZM21, (ii) PEO-treated ZM21, (iii) powder-coated ZM21 (without PEO interlayer), and (iv) PEO treated ZM21 with powder coating top layer (carboxyl-functionalized polyester resin). The PEO + powder coating double layer was identified as the best-performing corrosion protection.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
