Effect of High-Pressure Solution Temperature on Corrosion Resistance of AM60 Magnesium Alloy

Article Preview

Abstract:

As-cast AM60 magnesium alloy was solid dissolved under a high-pressure of 4 Gpa at different temperatures. The microstructure of the products was observed by optical microscope and the corrosion resistance of the products was investigated. The results show that increasing temperature during solution treatment promotes the dissolution into α-Mg matrix of β-Mg17Al12 in the alloy and improves the corrosion resistance of AM60 alloy, especially for over 400 °C.
