AZ31 magnesium alloy was anodized in an environmental friendly electrolyte containing 50 g/l NaOH + 40 g/l Na2B4O7·10H2O + 60 g/l Na2SiO3·9H2O. The voltage transient was recorded in anodizing process. The surface morphology of anodizing film was examined by SEM. The corrosion resistance of the anodizing film was characterized by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and potentiodynamic polarization techniques. The results show that the anodizing process can be divided to four stages according to the voltage transient. The anodizing film obtained at a current density of 20 mA·cm-2 for 15 minutes has the optimum corrosion resistance.

Al-based coating on ZM5 magnesium alloy was prepared by Supersonic Particles Deposition (SPD). Electrochemical working station was utilized to test polarization curve, corrosion potential and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy etc. The results indicted that corrosion potential of Al-Si coating was about-767.6mV, much higher than that of ZM5 Mg-substrate; And corrosion current density of the coating sample decreased three order of magnitude than that of the uncoated. Compared to Mg-substrate, the radius of capacitive impedance arc of the coating enlarged and impedance modulus improved two order of magnitude.
