Abstract
|
In this paper, the plasma electrolyte oxidation (PEO) technique was applied to modify the AZ31B Mg alloy surface. Effects of various concentrations of ZnO nanoparticles into an electrolyte with nanoparticles of hydroxyapatite (HAp) on the antibacterial and corrosion behavior of coatings were studied. Potentiodynamic polarization tests were done in Ringer’s electrolyte to study the coatings corrosion behavior.
