in this study, the effects of forming method (extrusion) and environmental factors (solution ph and temperature) on the corrosion performance of az91 magnesium alloys were investigated using potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and salt spray techniques. the polarization test results of the specimens showed that simple sh...

due to the great variety of applications of magnesium alloys with superior mechanical properties, recent studies have been focused on the hot deformation behavior and microstructure of magnesium alloy castings. although there have been several recent investigations on the microstructure of wrought magnesium alloys after hot deformation, a limited number of studies have been conducted with regar...

Investigation of the tensile and fatigue properties of cast magnesium alloys, created by the heated mold continuous casting process (HMC), was conducted. The mechanical properties of the Mg-HMC alloys were overall higher than those for the Mg alloys, made by the conventional gravity casting process (GC), and especially excellent mechanical properties were obtained for the Mg97Y2Zn1-HMC alloy. T...

Ti and solution treated Mg alloys such as AZ31B (ST), AZ61 (ST), AZ80 (ST) and AZ91 (ST) were successfully bonded at 475 °C by spark plasma sintering, which is a promising new method in welding field. The formation of Ti₃Al intermetallic compound was found to be an important factor in controlling the bonding strength and galvanic corrosion resistance of dissimilar materials. The maximum bonding...

Magnesium alloys have low corrosion resistance due to their high chemical activity. Therefore, it is necessary improve use in corrosive environments. In the present study, we aimed of AZ91 magnesium alloy NaCl solution, using aluminum sputtering deposition, anodic oxidation treatment and sealing process were examined. To evaluate rate, electrochemical experiments carried out. case just was not ...

Linear polarization is a potentiodynamic method used for electrochemical characterization of materials. Obtained values of corrosion potential and corrosion current density offer information about material behavior in corrosion environments from the thermodynamic and kinetic points of view, respectively. The present study offers a comparison of applications of the linear polarization method (fr...

magnesium alloys as biodegradable materials can be used in body as an implant materials but since they have poor corrosion resistance, it is required to decrease their corrosion rate by biocompatible coatings. in this study, hydroxyapatite (ha) coatings in the presence of an intermediate layer of zrn as a biocompatible material, deposited on az91 magnesium alloy by ion beam sputtering method at...
