The formation process of phytic acid conversion coating was studied through measuring the open circuit potential (OCP) and weight change of the pure magnesium in the different conversion treatment time. The morphologies and compositions of the coatings were determined by SEM and EDS respectively. The conversion coating has the multideck structure with netlike morphology which is similar to the chromate conversion coating, and is mainly composed of Mg, P, O and C. The contents of C and P and the size of the cracks in different layers decrease from the external layer to the inner layer. The hydroxyl groups and phosphate carboxyl groups in the coating which have the similar properties to organic paintcoat are beneficial to the combination of substrate and organic paintcoat. The formation mechanism and thickness variation of the conversion coatings are also discussed.展开更多

Untreated AZ31 magnesium alloys were used as control. The surface morphologies of magnesium alloys were observed by SEM. EDS was used to analyze the surface chemical elemental compositions and elemental concentration distribution. Corrosion properties were evaluated by electrochemical tests. Human osteosarcoma MG-63 cells were used to examine cell viability and proliferation. The results showed that surface phytic acid treatment resulted in a surface coating formation, which did not significantly improve the corrosion resistance of the alloys. The corrosion potential of AZ31 magnesium alloy positive shifted only about 0.04 V (from -1.50 V to -1.46 V);and the corrosion current decreased only 0.354 mA/cm2 (from 2.547 × 10-3 mA/cm2 to 2.193 × 10-3 mA/cm2). However, the cell analysis showed that this coating induced obviously higher MG-63 cell viability and proliferation, and displayed good surface bioactivity.展开更多

The results showed that the composite coating with a unique mesh structure not only inherited the anticoagulant effect of sulfonic acid group and the excellent cyto-compatibility of S-HA with high sulfur content, but also significantly improved the corrosion performance of ZE21B alloy.These results indicate a great application potential of the composite coating in the field of cardiovascular biomaterials.展开更多
