Abstract

The paper describes results from recently published research focused on production of non-conventional magnesium phosphate Mg₃(PO₄)₂・4H₂O – bobierrite, or MgHPO4・3H₂O – newberyite) coating for both magnesium alloys and/or mild steel. This new kind of coating is categorized in the context of current state of phosphating technology and its potential advantages and crystal structure is discussed. At the same time, the suitable comparison techniques for magnesium phosphate coating and conventional zinc phosphate coating are discussed.
