Corrosion Resistance of RE-AZ91 Magnesium Alloys

Article Preview

Abstract:

Rare Earth (RE) were added to industrial AZ91 magnesium alloy, so that RE-AZ91 Mg alloy was produced by the process of die casting, so as to study the effect of RE on corrosion resistance and tensile strength of Mg alloy. The experiment results show that RE addition could improve the tensile strength and corrosion resistance of magnesium alloy at a certain amount of RE. RE-AZ91 had a good heat resistance, corrosion resistance at a high temperature or in the environment applied constant voltage, with a high tensile strength.
