The purpose of the present study is to investigate the effect of an ‘Anomag’ coating on the fatigue and corrosion fatigue performance of magnesium alloys. The coating - ‘Anomag’, is produced by an anodising method and gives excellent corrosion resistance in chemical media. ...S-N curves were determined for uncoated (die cast surface), 5μm and 25μm thick coatings and 5μm and 25μm coatings with organic sealing. The environments adopted were natural seawater, tap water and air.
