Abstract

In this study, we aim to enhance the corrosion and wear resistance of AZ31 magnesium alloy using electrophoretic deposition (EPD) technology to apply a hydrophobic polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) coating. Polyethyleneimine (PEI) serves as a charged dispersant, facilitating uniform deposition of PTFE particles on the alloy surface. Results demonstrate a significant reduction in corrosion current density (from 67.5 μA/cm2 to 5.2 μA/cm2) and improved wear resistance (wear volume decreased from 0.24167 mm3 to 0.00167 mm3) in a 3.5 wt% NaCl solution compared to uncoated alloy. Moreover, the friction coefficient of the coated sample decreases. These findings underscore the potential of nano-PTFE coatings prepared via EPD in enhancing AZ31 magnesium alloy’s corrosion and wear resistance, providing a foundation for future protective coating design and optimization.
