采用电子探针-能谱分析,场发射扫描电镜X射线衍射等方法研究了稀土元素Ce和La合金化对AM60镁合金结构和耐蚀性能的影响.结果表明,Ce和La的加入可在AM60镁合金中形成了富含稀土元素的γ相(MgAl-RE);能有效抑制析氢,提高镁合金的耐蚀性能;改善镁合金在含Cl^-溶液中的耐蚀性能;腐蚀产物膜的晶态主要成分为铝和锰的氧化物,并含有少量的稀土氧化物和氢氧化物.
The influence of rare earth ( RE ) element Ce and La addition on microstructure and corrosion behavior of AM60 magnesium alloy has been investigated. Microstructure of AM60-RE alloys was charac- terized by FESEM. The result indicated that γ phase with high content of rare earth element was found in AM60-RE alloys. The corrosion rate of AM60-RE alloys was evaluated by hydrogen evolution tests, in comparison with commercial AM60 magnesium alloy. The result indicated that the corrosion resistance of AM60 magnesium alloy can be improved by addition of Ce and La. The surface morphology and the compositions of corrosion product on AM60-RE and AM60 magnesium alloys after 10 days immersion in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution was examined respectively with FESEM and XRD. The XRD result showed that the cor- rosion product of the former alloys mainly consisted of oxides of A1 and Mn and a little oxide and hydroxide of RE. The result of polarization measurements also clearly indicated that the corrosion resistance of AM60 magnesium alloys in solution containing Cl^- ion can be improved by Ce and La addition.
