To improve the corrosion property of magnesium alloys, Zr-based amorphous composite coatings have been fabricated on AZ91D magnesium alloy by laser cladding using mixed powders Zr55Al10Ni5Cu30/SiC. The microstructure of the coating was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The corrosion resistance of the coatings was tested in 3.5wt.% NaCl solution. The results show that the coatings mainly consist of amorphous and different crystalline phases. The coatings compared with AZ91D magnesium alloy exhibit good corrosion resistance because of the presence of the amorphous phase in the coatings.

Anodization is a useful technique for forming protective films on magnesium alloys and improves its corrosion resistance. Based on the rare earth metal (REE) salt solution, the optimum parameter was selected by comparing the anti-corrosion property of anodic film. The structure, component and surface morphology of anodic film and cross-section were analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) coupled with Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS). The corrosion behavior was evaluated by immersion test. In this paper, a dense anodic film approximately 20 µm thick was prepared on a AZ91D magnesium alloy through anodic oxidation coating. The results show that the anodic films were mainly composed of Mg17Al12, Mg17La2, MgO and amorphous compounds. The best corrosion resistance was obtained with specimen anodized in solution containing both lanthanum nitrate and magnesium, whose corrosion resistance is approximately 3 times higher than that of as-received AZ91D magnesium alloy.

Plasma spraying process was carried out to prepare Al2O3+13%TiO2 ceramic coating on AZ9Subscript text1D magnesium alloy by an orthogonal experiment. The microstructural characteristics and properties of coating were investigated. The results reveal that the bonding strength of optimized Al2O3+13%TiO2 coating reach 19.54MPa. The thermal shock failure of the coating is mainly due to fatigue under thermal cycling stress. The corrosion resistance of magnesium alloy is remarkably improved by plasma-sprayed Al2O3+13%TiO2 coating.

Plasma spraying process was carried out to prepare NiCoCrAlY bonding coating and Al2O3-13%TiO2 ceramic coating on AZ91D magnesium alloy by orthogonal experiments. The microstructural characteristics and properties of coating were investigated by SEM,tests of tensile, electrochemical method and weight loss. The results reveal that spraying power is the most important processing parameter to affect the bonding strength of the coating. The corrosion resistance of magnesium alloy is remarkably improved by plasma-sprayed NiCoCrAlY/(Al2O3-13%TiO2) coatings, especially when the coatings were sealed with epoxy resin.

AZ91D magnesium alloy is one of the most widely used magnesium alloys in the production of metal forming, which use the characteristics from liquid state to solid state of metal to form. The present status of the research and application of the semi-solid forming for AZ91D magnesium alloys at present was reviewed in this paper, including the microstructural characteristics, the thixotropic and rheological behavior, the forming process of semi-solid for AZ91D magnesium alloys and the mechanical properties of the parts made of semi-solid magnesium alloys. The developing prospects and the key points of the semi-solid forming for AZ91D magnesium alloys were forecasted, and the industrial application of the alloy were also discussed.
