LA91 magnesium alloy is a super lightweight magnesium -lithium alloy proposed for next generation materials. In addition to the advantages of these alloys such as low density, high strength-to -weight ratio, specific stiffness and brittleness, these alloys also have disadvantages such as low corrosion resistance and the oxide -carbonate film formed on the surfaces of the alloys cannot provide sufficient corrosion protection even in non-corrosive environments. In this study, micro arc oxidation, one of the coating methods, was applied to LA91 alloy. The surface morphologies of the coatings were characterized and it was aimed to increase the corrosion resistance of LA91 alloy. For this purpose, potentiodynamic polarization tests were carried out in 3.5% NaCl solution at room temperature to draw attention to the protection of the coating. As a result of the tests, it was determined that the oxide coatings raised on the surface

Magnesium–lithium alloy is used in different areas of industry and is known as a super light metallic engineering material. However, the use of these alloys is limited due to their surface properties under extreme loads and aggressive environments. Surface treatments can be applied to these alloys to increase their usage areas and improve their weak surface properties. In this study, the micro-arc oxidation method was applied to improve the surface properties of LA91 alloy. The corrosion and adhesion behaviour of the coated samples were investigated. The lowest corrosion current density in the coatings was obtained under Experiment 3. Experiment 3 has the highest Lc2 value due to the coating thickness and the denser and smaller diameter pores of the functional intermediate layer.
