Abstract

The corrosion behaviour of pure Mg in simulated body fluid (SBF) and the effect of chemical treatment on the corrosion resistance property were investigated using DEIS (dynamic electrochemical impedance spectroscopy), EIS (electrochemical impedance spectroscopy), PDP (potentiodynamic polarization), SEM (scanning electron microscopy), AFM (atomic force microscope), and pH measurement techniques for 30 h. NaOH or H2O2 were utilized for the chemical treatment. The DEIS was used for the first time in the investigation of Mg corrosion in SBF. Results obtained disclosed that the chemical treatment benefitted the anticorrosion property immensely. Results from both the electrochemical and surface analysis techniques are consistent.
