The results show that silane coupling agent KH-570 has significant influence on the compactness and homogeneity of cerium conversion films, and the process of film forming is promoted by increasing the content of tervalent and tetravalent cerium oxide. The impedance value of the cerium conversion film, especially modified with KH-570, is greater than that of the base metal, which reveals that it is necessary to add silane coupling agent to the film-forming solution in order to improve the corrosion resistance of the conversion film.展开更多

The composition ot the cenum conversion layer on magnesium was investigated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS）, It was revealed that the composition predominately consisted of a three-valent state cerium compound with a relative abundance around 90%. Some of Ce^3＋ was oxidized to Ce^4＋. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy results revealed that the total impedance of cerium-treated samples increased for a short immersion time in NaC1 solution before coating deteriorating. This deterioration was due to the coating porosity increasing and the breakdown of the conversion layer展开更多

The spectroscopic properties show that both Mn2＋ ions and Mn4＋ ions exist in Mn：YA103 and Ce,Mn：YAlO3 crystals. The Mn2＋ ions have a broad emission band of 60 nm in Mn-doped YAlO3 crystal at 530 nm. The luminescence spectra also indicate that there is significant energy transfer between Ce3＋ and Mn4＋ in Ce,Mn：YA103 crystal. Because of the energy transfer, the first decay component in Ce,Mn：YAlO3 decreases from 24.5 to 10.8 ns, which is much faster than that of Ce：YAlO3.展开更多
