The new method of the composite coating formation on the magnesium alloy is presented. These coatings include the oxide matrix, obtained using plasma electrolytic oxidation, modified with layered double hydroxides (LDH) loaded with a corrosion inhibitor. The formation of LDH consisting of hydrotalcite was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray phase analysis. The electrochemical behavior of the material with protective coatings was established using the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The coating obtained using the synthesis of layered double hydroxide on a preliminarily formed PEO-layer with simultaneous intercalation of sodium oleate into the interlayer space (|Z|f=0.1 Hz = 1.24·106 Ω·cm2) has the best anticorrosive properties.
