Abstract
Magnesium and its alloys are considered excellent materials for biodegradable implants because of their good biocompatibility and biodegradability as well as their mechanical properties. However, the rapid degradation rate severely limits their clinical applications. Plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO), also known as micro-arc oxidation (MAO), is an effective surface modification technique. However, there are many pores and cracks on the coating surface under conventional PEO process. The corrosive products tend to penetrate deeply into the substrate, reducing its corrosion resistance and the biocompatibility, which makes PEO-coated Mg difficult to meet the long-term needs of in vivo implants. Hence, it is necessary to modify the PEO coating. This review discusses the formation mechanism and the influential parameters of PEO coatings on Mg. This is followed by a review of the latest research of the pretreatment and typical amelioration of PEO coating on biodegradable Mg alloys in the past 5 years, including calcium phosphate (Ca-P) coating, layered double hydroxide (LDH)-PEO coating, ZrO2 incorporated-PEO coating, antibacterial ingredients-PEO coating, drug-PEO coating, polymer-PEO composite coating, Plasma electrolytic fluorination (PEF) coating and self-healing coating. Meanwhile, the improvements of morphology, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, biocompatibility, antibacterial abilities, and drug loading abilities and the preparation methods of the modified PEO coatings are deeply discussed as well. Finally, the challenges and prospects of PEO coatings are discussed in detail for the purpose of promoting the clinical application of biodegradable Mg alloys.

J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2023; 141:105784.

Abstract
In this research, a composite coating with Al2O3 and ZrO2 particles have been applied on AZ31 magnesium alloy by micro-arc oxidation (MAO) technique. The alkaline electrolyte included a constant based composition and different composition of the Al2O3 and ZrO2 additives. Microstructure observations reveal that the surface pores of composite coating reduced during addition of ZrO2 and Al2O3 ceramic particles. The hardness of coating increased from about 380 for non-added to 620 MPa for Al2O3+ZrO2 added coating and wear rate reduced about 8 times. Wettability of the coating increased by incorporation of Al2O3 and/or ZrO2 particles while, Al2O3 is more effective than ZrO2. Addition of the ceramic particles enhanced the hydrophilicity properties of surface in wettability test and a contact angle of 43° was obtained for coating including Al2O3+ZrO2. The antibacterial properties of MAO coatings showed that S. aureus bacterium is more sensitive to the zirconia and alumina particle than S. typhimurium bacterium after 24 h of incubation.

Abstract
Mg-based alloys have several suitable properties for biomaterials, but they have major problems of being less antibacterial and have a low mechanical strength. To solve these problems, a new combination of Ag/Zn/Mg was prepared in this study, where the presence of Zn and Ag can help to increase the bioactivity. The use of 5 wt.% polymers consisting of PolyCaproLactone (PCL), PolyHydroxyButyrate (PHB) and PolyVinylTriMethoxySilane (PVTMS) is also investigated. DSC, XRD, TEM, FTIR, SEM, and EDAX analysis, as well as mechanical and bioactive behavior, were investigated to characterize the prepared composites. In the comparison, the best behavior was found when PHB was used. The results show that the strength values ranged from ~201 to 261 MPa.

Dual Synergistic Effects of MgO-GO Fillers on Degradation Behavior, Biocompatibility and Antibacterial Activities of Chitosan Coated Mg Alloy. COATINGS 2022.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to establish and characterize chitosan/graphene oxide- magnesium oxide (CS/GO-MgO) nanocomposite coatings on biodegradable magnesium-zinc-cerium (Mg-Zn-Ce) alloy. In comparison to that of pure CS coatings, all composite coatings encapsulating GO-MgO had better adhesion strength to the Mg-Zn-Ce alloy substrate. The result depicted that the co-encapsulation of GO-MgO into the CS layer leads to diminish of contact angle value and hence escalates the hydrophilic characteristic of coated Mg alloy. The electrochemical test demonstrated that the CS/GO-MgO coatings significantly increased the corrosion resistance because of the synergistic effect of the GO and MgO inside the CS coating. The composite coating escalated cell viability and cell differentiation, according to cytocompatibility tests due to the presence of GO and MgO within the CS. The inclusion of GO-MgO in CS film, on the other hand, accelerates the formation of hydroxyapatite (HA) during 14 days immersion in SBF. Immersion results, including weight loss and hydrogen evolution tests, presented that CS/GO-MgO coating enables a considerably reduced degradation rate of Mg-Zn-Ce alloy when compared to the bare alloy. In terms of antibacterial-inhibition properties, the GO-MgO/CS coatings on Mg substrates showed antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli (E. coli), with a large inhibition area around the specimens, particularly for the coating containing a higher concentration of GO-MgO. Bacterial growth was not inhibited by the bare Mg alloy samples. The CS/GO-MgO composite coating is regarded as a great film to enhance the corrosion resistance, bioactivity, and antibacterial performance of Mg alloy implants.

A Novel Processing for CNT-Reinforced Mg-Matrix Laminated Composites to Enhance the Electromagnetic Shielding Property. COATINGS 2021.

Abstract
The microstructure, electrical conductivity, and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding effectiveness (SE) of CNTs/Mg Matrix composites prepared by accumulative roll bonding (ARB) were systematically investigated to understand the effects of CNTs on the electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness property of magnesium. A model based on the shielding of the electromagnetic plane wave was used to theoretically discuss the EMI shielding mechanisms of ARB-processed composites. The experimental results indicated that the methods were feasible to prepare laminated composites. The SE of the material increased gradually with the increase of electrophoretic deposition time. When the electrophoretic deposition time reached 8 min, the value of SE remained 87–95 dB in the frequency range of 8.2–12.4 GHz. The increase in SE was mainly attributed to the improvement in the reflection and multiple reflection losses of incident electromagnetic wave due to the increased amounts of CNTs and interfaces. The methods provided an efficient strategy to produce laminated metal matrix composites with high electromagnetic shielding properties.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to improve the cellular compatibility and corrosion resistance of AZ31 magnesium alloy and to prepare a biodegradable medical material. An aminated hydroxyethyl cellulose (AHEC) coating was successfully prepared on the surface of a micro-arc oxide +AZ31 magnesium alloy by sol–gel spinning. The pores of the micro-arc oxide coating were sealed. A polarization potential test analysis showed that compared to the single micro-arc oxidation coating, the coating after sealing with AHEC significantly improved the corrosion resistance of the AZ31 magnesium alloy and reduced its degradation rate in simulated body fluid (SBF). The CCK-8 method and cell morphology experiments showed that the AHEC + MAO coating prepared on the AZ31 magnesium alloy had good cytocompatibility and bioactivity.

Influence of Cu 2+ Ions on the Corrosion Resistance of AZ31 Magnesium Alloy with Microarc Oxidation. MATERIALS 2020; 13:ma13112647.

Abstract
The objectives of this study were to reduce the corrosion rate and increase the cytocompatibility of AZ31 Mg alloy. Two coatings were considered. One coating contained MgO (MAO/AZ31). The other coating contained Cu2+ (Cu/MAO/AZ31), and it was produced on the AZ31 Mg alloy via microarc oxidation (MAO). Coating characterization was conducted using a set of methods, including scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive spectrometry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. Corrosion properties were investigated through an electrochemical test, and a H2 evolution measurement. The AZ31 Mg alloy with the Cu2+-containing coating showed an improved and more stable corrosion resistance compared with the MgO-containing coating and AZ31 Mg alloy specimen. Cell morphology observation and cytotoxicity test via Cell Counting Kit-8 assay showed that the Cu2+-containing coating enhanced the proliferation of L-929 cells and did not induce a toxic effect, thus resulting in excellent cytocompatibility and biological activity. In summary, adding Cu ions to MAO coating improved the corrosion resistance and cytocompatibility of the coating.

Abstract
The present study was carried out to explore the effect of SiF62− incorporation and concentration on the plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) coatings formed on AZ61 Mg alloy. The coatings were prepared using electrolyte solution with various concentration of Na2SiF6 (0.0–0.7 g/L). Highly compact coatings with minimum porosity were obtained for an optimum concentration of Na2SiF6 ~0.3 g/L added into the electrolyte. The highest corrosion resistance, ~2.04 × 105 Ω·cm2, was obtained for 0.3 g/L of Na2SiF6, in addition to its superior anti-wear properties. However, it was found from the scanning electron microscope (SEM) image analysis that increasing concentration above 0.3 g/L, could cause severe breakdown in the inner layers, and thus the said coatings could not withstand effectively against wear and corrosion.

Abstract
In this study, films with different fluorine contents were prepared on an AZ31 magnesium alloy by using plasma electrolytic oxidation to study the corrosion resistance and cytocompatibility of the alloy. The morphology of the coating surface, phase, and chemical elements were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDS). The changes in the corrosion resistance with different fluorine contents were investigated by electrochemical experiments, hydrogen evolution, and long-term immersion tests. In addition, murine fibroblast L-929 cells were adopted for in vitro cytotoxicity tests using the cell counting kit (CCK)-8 assay, and the morphology of the cells was observed simultaneously by inverted microscopy. The results showed that the main form of the fluorine ions in the plasma electrolytic oxidation coatings was magnesium fluoride (MgF2). In addition, the corrosion resistance and cytocompatibilities of the coatings were improved by the addition of fluoride ions. When the content of potassium fluoride reached 10 g/L, the cell compatibility and corrosion resistance were the best, a finding which provides a basis for the clinical applications of the AZ31 magnesium alloy in the biomedical field.

Investigation on Corrosion Resistance and Formation Mechanism of a P–F–Zr Contained Micro-Arc Oxidation Coating on AZ31B Magnesium Alloy Using an Orthogonal Method. COATINGS 2019.

Abstract
In this study, the synergistic effects of NH4HF2, sodium phytate (Na12Phy), K2ZrF6, and treatment time on corrosion resistance of a micro-arc oxidation (MAO) treated magnesium alloy and the entrance mechanism of P, F, and Zr into anodic coatings were investigated using an orthogonal method. In addition, the roles of NH4HF2, Na12Phy, and K2ZrF6 on coating development were separately studied. The results show that NH4HF2 and Na12Phy, the corrosion inhibitors of magnesium alloys, are beneficial but K2ZrF6 is harmful to developing anodic coatings. The corrosion resistance of MAO coatings is synergistically determined by coating characteristics, though the coating thickness plays a main role. Na12Phy significantly improves but NH4HF2 decreases the corrosion resistance of MAO coatings, while excess high K2ZrF6 is harmful to the coating corrosion resistance. Treatment time can increase the coating thickness but is the least important factor in corrosion resistance. During MAO, NH4HF2, Na12Phy, and K2ZrF6 take part in coating formation, causing P, F, and Zr to compete with each other to enter into anodic coatings.
