    Graphene oxide (GO) integrated composite coatings were deposited on AZ91 magnesium alloys by the PEO (Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation) and the treatment which has a post-PEO hydrothermal process. For the first group samples, PEO was performed in the silicate/phosphate-based electrolyte including 5–10 µm in size the GO particles synthesized using the Tour Method. For the second group samples, after PEO treatment, the post-PEO hydrothermal process was carried out in the oven in the GO-distilled water mixture containing GO produced with the same protocol. The effects of GO on wear behavior, structural and morphological features of composite coatings were examined with a pin-on-disc tribometer, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Raman spectroscopy, respectively. The results showed that the addition of GO improved significantly the adhesion to the substrate material of composite coatings, increased the coating thickness and hardness. Post-PEO hydrothermal process resulted in the formation of partial a thin solid lubricant GO film on the surface of composite coatings and thus exhibited the best wear and friction resistance.

    It is said that plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) is considered as an effective technique to boost the surface properties of light materials by means of forming ceramic films on their surfaces. In this study, three different voltage values were applied to the PEO process to AA2024 so that Al2O3 ceramic coatings were directly supplied for AA 2024 substrates by PEO and it is focused on the adhesion of interface between coating and substrate. All of the cases such as microstructure, phase composition, thickness, roughness and hardness of Al2O3 ceramic coatings were assayed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Atomic-force microscopy (AFM), Eddy Current Non-destructive testing and microhardness test, respectively. The results showed that roughness, hardness and thickness of the coatings were increased as we increased the voltage. Therefore, it could be claimed that the voltage parameters have an important role in the unified coating on the metal surface as it is directly connected with the morphologies of the PEO coating.
