Optimization of corrosion resistance of AZ31 Mg alloy through hydration-driven interaction between quinolin-8-ol and plasma electrolytic oxidation-formed MgO layer by Mosab Kaseem, Talitha Tara Thanaa, Ananda Repycha Safira, Alireza Askari, Arash Fattah-alhosseini

“…DFT calculations further suggested that the hydration treatment provided multiple active sites, enabling effective contact with 8HQ and rapid electron transfer, creating ideal conditions for charge-transfer-induced physical and chemical bonding. This study shows that hydration and 8HQ treatments significantly enhance the corrosion resistance of Mg alloys, highlighting their potential for advanced anticorrosive coatings.…”
