Electrochemical corrosion behavior of Mg-Al-Sn alloys with different morphologies of β-Mg17Al12 phase as the anodes for Mg-air batteries

Effects of Deformation Microstructures on the Electrochemical Properties of Mg-Hg-Ga Alloy Anode

“…Previous studies have shown that the addition of appropriate amouts of alloying elements to magnesium can inhibit the hydrogen evolution selfdischarge of magnesium and change its corrosion behavior, thereby improving the anode performance of magnesium alloy. [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] At present, common magnesium alloy anodes for seawater-activated batteries include AZ31, AP65 and Mg-Hg-Ga alloys, 1,2,11,12 etc. Due to the dissolution-deposition mechanism, Hg and Ga can effectively strip the oxide film on the surface of magnesium alloy, negatively shift the anode discharge potential of magnesium alloy.…”
