Abstract
In this work, plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) ceramic coatings were prepared on magnesium AZ31B alloy. Various electrolyte solutions including phosphate, aluminate and silicate as additives and NaOH + Na2SiF6 as constant agent were used to prepare the coatings. Influence of the additives on chemical composition and structure of the PEO coatings were examined by means of scanning electron microscope (SEM) and XRD. From structural analysis it was found that coatings prepared in the aluminate-based electrolyte have the best structural features. Microhardness and tribological characteristics of the PEO coatings were investigated using Vickers hardness test and pin-on-disc test. Microhardness for aluminate-based coating was found to be 1169.63HV while those for silicate-and phosphate-based coatings were 1093.42HV and 285.91HV, respectively. Wear rate of the aluminate-based coating was found to be lowest than all other coatings having a value of 2.78×10−3mg/Nm.
