Abstract
Long-term effect of plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) coatings on in vitro corrosion of 3D Mg implant specimens has been investigated in simulated body fluid (SBF). Hydrogen evolution rate in PEO-coated specimens was 35 times lower compared to the non-coated alloy during first 2 weeks of immersion (0.04
