Abstract Microarc oxidation (MAO) coatings were obtained on the AZ91D magnesium alloy by AC pulse electrical source in a silicate-aluminate based composite electrolyte containing various concentrations of C3H8O3. The morphologies and thickness of ceramic coatings were characterized by SEM and layer thickness meter, respectively. The corrosion resistance of coatings in a 3.5%NaCl neutral solution was evaluated by the immersion test and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results showed that the striking voltage and final voltage increased gradually with the increase of C3H8O3 concentration during the MAO process. With the increase of C3H8O3 concentration in the electrolyte, the corrosion resistance of the coatings increased at first and then decreased gradually, however, the variation of the coating thickness was not obvious. The EIS results showed that the corrosion resistance of the coatings was influenced by the inner dense layer. The coating exhibited better corrosion resistance in the electrolyte containing 5 mL/L C3H8O3 due to its relatively compact microstructure.
