Scanning electron microscopy （SEM） images showed that the coating had three layers and X-ray diffraction （XRD） patterns showed that the coating mainly contained Ca3（PO4）2 and （Ca,Mg）3（PO4）2. Elec- trochemical test showed that the corrosion current density （Icorr） of the coated Mg was decreased by about one order of magnitude as compared to that of pure magnesium. The immersion test indicated that the coating could obviously reduce the degradation rate.展开更多
