abstract = {This study describes the preparation of chitosan-derivatives coatings on AZ31 Mg alloy for corrosion protection in Hank's Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS). The derivatives were prepared by reacting chitosan with natural aldehydes (vanillin, benzaldehyde and cinnamaldehyde) and the coatings were characterized by means of water contact angle, scanning electron microscopy and swelling essays. The corrosion behavior of the samples was investigated using potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and hydrogen evolution essays. All derivatives present superior corrosion protection than neat chitosan and the best performance is observed for the vanillin derivative with the highest modification degree, which present hydrogen evolution rate of 0.05 mL cm−2 day−1, below the tolerance limit for biomedical application, and |Z|max in the order of 104.6 Ω cm2 even after 14 days of exposure to the corrosive solution.},
