Abstract:The use of Mg is increasing in the automobile and aerospace industries due to its light weight and suitable structural properties that lead to decreased vehicle weight and, consequently, reduced fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. The main obstacle to the use of Mg is its corrosion susceptibility [1]. Mg corrosion is limited to some degree by the relatively slow rate of hydrogen evolution on its surface. However, the rate of corrosion increases significantly when magnesium is galvanically coupled t… 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.
