Title Electrochemical response of MgO/Co3O4 oxide layers produced by plasma electrolytic oxidation and post treatment using cobalt nitrate
Type JournalPaper
Keywords AZ31 Mg alloy; Plasma electrolytic oxidation; Co3O4; Hydration; Corrosion
Abstract This work looked into the influence of the sealing treatment on the structural feature and electrochemical response of AZ31 Mg alloy coated via plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO). Here, the inorganic layers produced by PEO in an alkaline-phosphate electrolyte were subsequently immersed for different periods in cold (60 °C) and hot (100 °C) aqueous solutions containing either 1 or 3 gr of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate in the presence of hydrogen peroxide as an initiator.
