A novel Mg-Al LDH film was in-situ prepared hydrothermally in an alkaline aqueous solution on an Al-alloyed AZ31 substrate. The structural, chemical and functional characteristics of the film were explored by means of scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS), polarization curve, AC impedance and salt immersion tests, respectively. The anti-corrosion results indicated that the Mg-Al LDH film on the Al-alloyed AZ31 surface could effectively protect the AZ31 from corrosion attack even after 90 days of immersion in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution. The protection performance is surprisingly better than most of the reported coatings on Mg alloys. More interestingly, when the Mg-Al LDH film was scratched, the exposed Al-alloyed surface might gradually release metal ions and re-generate dense LDH nano-sheets in the corrosive environment to inhibit the further corrosion there, exhibiting a self-repairing behavior. The combination of the benign long-term protection and desirable self-repairing performance in this new process of surface-alloying and LDH-formation may significantly extend the practical application of magnesium alloys. |
