Abstract  

Al-Mn alloy coatings were deposited on zinc pre-plated magnesium alloy AZ31B from a bath of inorganic molten salts. Then the microstructure, composition and phase constituents of the coatings were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDX), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The corrosion and wear resistance of the coatings was evaluated by potentiodynamic polarization and microhardness measurements, respectively. The results indicated that the typical processing parameters such as composition of molten salts, cathode currency density and temperature had important effect on the morphology and chemical composition of the Al-Mn alloy, and the alloy coating with various composition present different phase constitution. It showed that the Al-Mn alloy coating exhibited a much higher corrosion potential and lower corrosion rate than that of Mg alloy AZ31B, so it can well protect the magnesium alloy AZ31B against corrosion.
