Abstract  

The microstructure of Mg-10Gd-2.5Nd-0.5Zr (mass fraction, %) alloy after solid solution and aging treatment were characterized by means of OM, XRD, TEM and SEM. The average corrosion rate in 3.5% (mass fraction) NaCl solution was measured for 0~96 h. The results show that the microstructure of the as-cast alloy is composed of α-Mg matrix and coarse dentritic crystal β phase. After heat treatment, the β phase has experienced a course of dissolution and then precipitation, while the discontinued net-like β-phase transformed into cuboid-shaped particles due to the solution and aging treatment. The heat treatments are beneficial to the corrosion resistant of the alloy in 3.5%NaCl solution, while its corrosion rate was 0.74 mgcm-2d-1 for the as-cast, 0.41 mgcm-2d-1 for the solid solution treated and 0.35 mgcm-2d-1 for the aging treated ones respectively. The corrosion products of the alloy is mainly composed of Mg(OH)2.

Key words:  heat treatment      Mg-10Gd-2.5Nd-0.5Zr alloy      microstructure      corrosion resistance
