Corrosion Characteristics of Magnesium Alloys Produced by Several Method

Corrosion and Surface Treatment of Magnesium Alloys

The need for fuel efficiency and increased performance in transportation systems continually places new demands on the materials used. The design criteria which automobile and aerospace industries are primarily concerned with are density, strength, stiffness, and corrosion resistance. Low-density materials may reduce fuel costs, increase range, and allow larger payloads. High strength and stiff...

A Review of Magnesium/Magnesium Alloys Corrosion and its Protection

A review is provided about the current research on magnesium/magnesium alloys corrosion in the industry. Except for reviewing the kinds of corrosion on galvanic corrosion, stress corrosion, and corrosion fatigue, its corresponding mechanisms are also explained, such as the influence of metallurgical factors, and environmental factors. Furthermore, the protection of magnesium/magnesium alloys co...

Study of Copper Bearing Alloys Corrosion Characteristics

This paper addresses investigation of the corrosion behavior of copper bearing anodes with high nickel content. Anodes are produced from different solid wastes formed during the copper or nickel row materials treatment. Nickel content in anode samples had values up to 10 mas %. The content of tin, lead and antimony was up to 1 % for each of elements. Sulphuric acid solution, concentration of 17...

Bio-Corrosion of Magnesium Alloys for Orthopaedic Applications

Three Mg alloys, Mg-1.34% Ca-3% Zn (MCZ), Mg-1.34% Ca-3% Zn-0.2% Sr (MCZS), and Mg-2% Sr (MS), were examined to understand their bio-corrosion behavior. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and polarization scans were performed after 6 days of immersion in cell culture medium, and ion release and changes in media pH were tracked over a 28 day time period. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of...
