Abstract:The influence of post-process heat treatment on cold-sprayed Zn coatings on the Mg alloy substrate was investigated at different temperatures (150, 250, and 350 °C) and times (2, 8, and 16 h). Phase, microstructure, microhardness, and tensile strength of Zn coatings were analyzed before and after heat treatment. Corrosion properties of Zn coatings after heat treatment were investigated in simulated body fluid by using potentiodynamic polarization and immersion testing. Results show that although the heat treat… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
