Abstract
Microarc oxidation coated magnesium attracts increasing attention recently, owing to its excellent anti-corrosion and wear-resistance properties. However, some drawbacks like micropores on the MAO surface reduce the corrosion resistance of the coatings, which requires post treatment. In the present work, a specific double layered structural MAO/rGO-CaP coating was produced to seal the micropores on the MAO coating and further enhance the corrosion resistance. The structure, cytocompatibility, electrochemical properties, and long-term corrosion behavior of the composite coatings were investigated. XRD results show that the coatings are mainly composed of CaHPO4 (DCP) and Ca5(PO4)3OH (HA). Cytocompatibility evaluation indicates that the rGO in the coating shows no cytotoxicity. Corrosion potential of the bottom MAO coating is enhanced significantly by the rGO-CaP top coatings from -1.58 V to -1.02 V. Long term soaking test reveals that a longer chemical stable coating was produced. The results suggest a potential application of the MAO/rGO-CaP coating in practice.
