Effect of Re Addition on the Ignition Resistance of Pure Magnesium

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper focus on the effect of rare earth elements addition on the oxidation resistance of pure magnesium. The results show that the ignition points of the Mg-RE alloys vary like “V” along with the increase of the rare earth elements. When the content of Y reaches 10wt%, the ignition point of magnesium alloy is 890K, about 40K higher than the ignition point of pure magnesium. After the addition of rare earth elements, dense oxide film forms on the surface of Mg-RE alloys. The outer oxidation film mainly consists of rare earth oxide.
