The effect of shot peening (SP) and Micro Arc Oxidation (MAO) were utilized to characterize the performance of the corrosion resistance process at 0.5 % Nt with add AZ31 Mg alloy. Hot rolling at different rolling speeds has been investigated in this work. The surface of the rolling materials a rolling speed of 4.7 m/min and the rolling materials a rolling speed of 10 m/min were measured to create a clear definition of corrosion resistance physical properties. Experimental results show the surface of the rolling materials a rolling speed of 4.7 m/min had higher surface smoothness values than the one of the rolling at 10 m/min. It was observed that the corrosion rate changed in the first 24 of 168 hours. In the following hours, the corrosion rate showed different results according to the initial microstructure properties of the base materials. Initially, pore size was the dominant factor determining corrosion resistance, although, after coating the corrosion rate was affected by the twins formed, based on rolling speed, which enhanced the corrosion rate between 24 and 168 hours.
