Corrosion inhibitor-loaded slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces with excellent corrosion resistance and dual self-healing for AZ31 Mg alloys

Key Points

• Corrosion resistance is significantly enhanced through the use of corrosion inhibitors in infused surfaces, creating a protective layer.
• The study highlights that these surfaces exhibit exceptional self-healing properties, effectively repairing damage over time.
• Evaluation involved testing the corrosion resistance of AZ31 magnesium alloys with liquid-infused surfaces under various conditions.
• The findings suggest promising applications for durable coatings in various industrial settings, though scalability remains to be determined.
