Investigation on the Corrosion Behavior of Cast and Extrude AZ61 Mg Alloys in NaCl Atmosphere at High Temperature and Pressure

Article Preview

Abstract:

We chose cast and extrude magnesium alloy AZ61 as materials and studied the influences of temperature, humidity, pressure and NaCl atmosphere on the corrosion products and corrosion mechanism by means of SEM, EDS and XRD. we could indicate the corr osion rate of extruded AZ61 magnesium is faster than that of cast AZ61 magnesium. Both th e rearrange of second ph ase and smaller grain size, which owing to the extrusion process, change the morphologies of corrosion products.
