Corrosion and wettability of PEO coatings on magnesium by addition of potassium stearate

Hydrophobic PEO coatings were fabricated in an electrolyte containing potassium stearate. The wetting behaviour of coated samples was studied using dynamic and static contact angle. Also, the corrosion behaviour of the samples was evaluated by polarization method. The dynamic contact angle and hyste...
