Abstract: | Chromium Conversion Coatings (CCCs) are widely used for the protection of magnesium alloys against the corrosion but this approach is limited due to the toxicity of hexavalent chromium. Alternative conversion coatings are based on solutions containing chromium (III), permanganate, phosphates, Rare Earth Elements (REEs) or vanadium. This review details the deposition and protection mechanisms of CCC technology and other promising processes. Permanganate/phosphate-based coating presents a corrosion resistance equivalent to CCC and REEs have self-healing properties but no coating present all the properties of CCCs. The development of new non-toxic conversion coatings remains a priority. |
