Magnesium and its alloys are ideal candidates for biodegradable implants.However, they can dissolve too rapidly in the human body for most applications.In this research, high purified magnesium (HP-Mg) was coated with stearic acidin order to slow the corrosion rate of magnesium in simulated body fluid at37{\deg}C. HP-Mg was anodized to form an oxide/hydroxide layer, then it wasimmersed in a stearic acid solution. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy andpotentiodynamic polarization were used to estimate the corrosion rate of HP-Mgspecimens. The results confirm that the hydrophobic coating can temporarilydecrease the corrosion rate of HP-Mg by 1000x.
