Influence of the Electrolyte Composition on the Corrosion Behavior of Anodized AZ31B Magnesium Alloy

Abstract:

Investigations have been performed to study the effects of the electrolyte composition on the properties of anodized films grown on AZ31B magnesium alloy. The corrosion protection ability of the oxide layers was explored by using potentiodynamic polarization (PDP) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Film morphology was examined by scanning electron microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscopy. In spite of its higher roughness average, the film formed in the silicate and hydroxide mixed solution enhanced the protective properties of the anodized layer, thus reducing the substrate dissolution rate.
