Effect of heat treatment on corrosion behavior of AZ63 magnesium alloy in 3.5 wt.% sodium chloride solution

Abstract: The as-cast, homogenized, and peak-aged AZ63 alloys are investigated via microstructure observation, EDS analysis, hydrogen evolution, and electrochemical tests. The results suggest that the heat treatments exert an influence on the corrosion behavior of AZ63 alloy via the microstructure transformation. The corrosion of homogenized alloy is retarded by protective oxide layer at first, but achieves highest corrosion rate among the three alloys owing to the less protective products film. The micro-galvanic coupl… Show more

“…In the last few years, the automotive, aerospace and electronic products industries, among others, have triggered renewed interest in magnesium alloys as structural materials due to properties such as low density (1.74 g/cm 3 ), high specific strength and stiffness, electromagnetic shielding capacity, excellent machinability and good castability [1,2].…”

“…Here, R s , R ct , R f , and CPE represent the solution resistance, charge transfer resistance, film resistance, and electric double-layer capacity, respectively. In general, higher values of R ct and R f indicate better corrosion resistance, while lower values of CPE 1 and CPE 2 indicate a Please check if the original meaning is retained and thicker film on the surface of the alloys [25,26]. The Mg-7Li-3Al-0.4Ca, Mg-7Li-3Al-0.8Ca, and Mg-7Li-3Al-1.2Ca alloys exhibited higher R ct and R f values than the Mg-7Li-3Al alloy, implying that the corrosion resistance of the extruded Mg-7Li-3Al alloy can be increased by the addition of Ca.…”
