The corrosion behavior of AZ61 alloyed with 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0% Ca were studied by potentiostatic polarization technique in 3.5wt. % NaCl solution and the further effect of corrosion behavior have been studied after aging at different temperature in a controlled environment.The results show that the calcium addition enhances the corrosion resistance.Simultaneously when the alloy is aged at 180°C, the corrosion resistance has improved. This study also reveals the interesting microstructural change that isresponsible for the improved corrosion resistance. Themicrostructural characterization of this alloy was studied using Optical and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM).
