Abstract
In order to make magnesium alloys better used in aviation, electronic information and other fields, it is necessary to improve their corrosion resistance and wave absorption properties. In this paper, a composite coating with corrosion resistance and wave absorption properties was prepared on magnesium alloy by micro-arc oxidation-organic coating technology. An organic absorbing coating with a thickness of about 40 μm was sprayed on the MAO coating containing Yb2O3 nanoparticles. Among them, the absorbing fillers in the organic coating are mainly SiO2 and α-Fe2O3. Three different mass ratios of SiO2 and α-Fe2O3 were set to 20%, 22.5% and 25%, respectively, to prepare three different MAO/SiO2@α-Fe2O3 organic composite coatings. The morphology, roughness, microstructure and chemical composition of the organic composite coating are characterized. The results show that after coating the organic composite coating, the roughness of the coating is significantly reduced, and the compactness and interlayer adhesion of the coating are significantly improved. The electrochemical test and SKPFM test of the organic composite coating were carried out. The results showed that with the increase of the mass ratio of SiO2 and α-Fe2O3, the corrosion resistance and stability of the organic composite coating increased, and the Volta potential also gradually moved up. The microwave absorbing properties of organic composite coatings were studied by vector network analyzer. The results show that the microwave absorbing properties of the coatings are positively correlated with the mass ratio of SiO2 and α-Fe2O3.
期刊介绍:
npj Materials Degradation considers basic and applied research that explores all aspects of the degradation of metallic and non-metallic materials. The journal broadly defines ‘materials degradation’ as a reduction in the ability of a material to perform its task in-service as a result of environmental exposure.
The journal covers a broad range of topics including but not limited to:
-Degradation of metals, glasses, minerals, polymers, ceramics, cements and composites in natural and engineered environments, as a result of various stimuli
-Computational and experimental studies of degradation mechanisms and kinetics
-Characterization of degradation by traditional and emerging techniques
-New approaches and technologies for enhancing resistance to degradation
-Inspection and monitoring techniques for materials in-service, such as sensing technologies
