Methionine (Met) was introduced to modify the Li-Al layered double hydroxides (LDHs) film prepared on 6063 aluminum alloy by in situ method for the first time. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray diffraction confirmed the successful insertion of Met into LDHs film and revealed that the introduction of Met could make the LDHs film much denser. Electrochemical tests illustrated that the corrosion rate of the Met modified LDHs film was reduced by more than an order of magnitude compared with the bare Al alloy. Moreover, the corrosion rate of the modified LDHs film after immersion in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution for 21 days was almost the same as that without immersion, which indicates that the modified film has good corrosion durability. The corrosion resistance of the scratched modified film could recover to the level without a scratch on the 14th day based on the scratch test results, meaning the modified film has a good self-healing property. Finally, the anti-corrosion mechanism of the Met was proved by molecular dynamic simulations and found that the enhanced corrosion resistance may be attributed to the addition of Met that slowed the diffusion of the corrosive medium Cl− and water molecules.
