Microstructure and Corrosion Resistance of Microarc Oxidation Coatings on AZ31 Magnesium Alloy Extrusion Profiles
Abstract:
Microarc oxidation coatings were prepared on the surface of AZ31 magnesium alloy profiles. Oxidation time of the coatings was between 5min-10min. The phase structure, surface morphology and corrosion resistance of the coatings were investigated using SEM, XRD, copper sulfate spot test and polarization curve test. The results indicate: the main phase compositions of the microarc oxidation coatings are MgO, Mg2SiO4 and MgSiO3; with increasing pulse voltage, the micropore diameter of the coating surface becomes larger, the micropore number reduces and the coating surface roughness increases; the corrosion current density of magnesium alloy reduces significantly after microarc oxidation treatment. The pulse voltage of microarc oxidation should be controlled between 240V-360V to obtain the best corrosion resistance.
