Corrosion resistance of a superhydrophobic dodecyltrimethoxysilane coating on magnesium alloy AZ31 fabricated by one-step electrodeposition

Abstract

A superhydrophobic and corrosion-resistant coating with a hierarchical macro/nanostructure was constructed by one-step electrodeposition of dodecyltrimethoxysilane (e-DTMS) on Mg alloy AZ31.
