Abstract

This study investigates the multifunctional properties of magnesium (Mg) plates coated with a nickel/polydimethylsiloxane (Ni/PDMS) layer using a layer-by-layer technique. Surface morphology analysis reveals the successful formation of micro/nanostructured patterns on the coated surface, enhancing hydrophobicity and corrosion resistance. Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy confirms the elemental composition, providing crucial insights for optimising the coating process. The modified Mg plates exhibit a significant increase in contact angle, indicating enhanced hydrophobicity. Self-cleaning tests demonstrate the superior self-cleaning effect of the coated surface. Wear and corrosion resistance evaluations reveal the durability and reliability of coatings. Furthermore, the electromagnetic wave absorption capacity analysis suggests the potential application of Mg/Ni/PDMS samples as efficient anti-electromagnetic interference materials in the 2–18 GHz frequency range.
