Magnesium alloys have received great attention as a new kind of biodegradable metallic biomaterials. However, they suffer from poor corrosion resistance. In this study, Mg–Ca alloy was coated with nano-fluorine-doped hydroxyapatite (FHA), and brushite (DCPD); via electrochemical deposition (ED). Coatings were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The results revealed that nano-fluorine-doped hydroxyapatite coating produced more dense and uniform coating layer, compared to the brushite coating. The compression tests of the ED-coated Mg alloy samples immersed in simulated body fluid for different time periods showed higher yield strength (YS) and ultimate tensile strength (UTS), compared to those of the uncoated samples. The degradation behavior and corrosion properties of the ED-coated Mg alloy samples were examined via electrochemical measurements and immersion tests. The results showed that FHA coating could effectively induce the precipitation of more Ca2+ and PO43− ions than DCPD coating, because the nanophase can provide higher specific surface area. It was also found that FHA and DCPD coatings can significantly decline the initial degradation rate of the alloy. A corrosion mechanism of the ED-coated alloy is proposed and discussed in this paper.
