초록
There is an increased interest in the development of lightweight materials with corrosion-resistant coatings in industries such as aerospace, automobile, ship, and electronics. In this study, a Zn thin film is fabricated on a magnesium alloy (AZ91D) sub-strate by thermo-electron activated ion plating, which is a modified physical vapor deposition (PVD) method that is environmentally friendly and capable of controlling nano-phase particles. The effect of gas pressure and substrate bias voltage on the morphology and crystal orientation of the Zn thin film was analyzed by X-ray diffraction and field emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Additionally, the corrosion behavior of the Zn thin film was evaluated by an electrochemical anodic polarization test using a deaerat-ed 3% NaCl solution. All the deposited Zn films showed good corrosion resistance as compared to the bare substrate of AZ91D. It was observed that the morphology of the Zn film was changed from column structure to granular structure by gas pressure. The mor-phology of the films was affected not only by Ar gas pressure but also by the substrate bias voltage. The effect of increasing bias voltage was similar to reducing gas pressure. Finally, the corrosion resistance of AZ91D was greatly improved by the Zn thin film obtained by optimizing the crystal orientation and the morphology through the plasma ion plating technique.
