Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The effect of hydrofluoric acid (HF) pretreatment on the microstructure and corrosion resistance of PEO coatings on AZ91 Mg alloys was investigated. The results showed that thin fluoride film was formed on AZ91 Mg alloy after pretreatment. The application of ultrasound (US) in the pretreatment made the film more compact and increased its F content. PEO coatings deposited on the pretreated AZ91 become denser with decreased porosity level and have no structural defects. The inner layer (IL) of PEO coating of HF-treated AZ91 with US is more intact and contains more F than those obtained without US. The better quality of IL could facilitate the stable discharge and form compact PEO coating. Therefore, PEO coating deposited on AZ91 pretreated with (HF+US) offered a better corrosion resistance, which is in good agreement with the results of electrochemical measurements.
