TiO2 films were deposited on AZ31 magnesium alloy substrates by r.f. magnetron sputtering. The corrosion behaviors in simulated body fluid (SBF) of the film samples were investigated and compared to the bare AZ31 magnesium alloy. After 3 days’ corrosion in SBF, only part of the TiO2 layer suffered from corrosion and the substrate was prevented from corrosion. In contrast, the bare magnesium alloy suffered from severe corrosion. After 10 days’ corrosion, the TiO2 layer was penetrated and the substrates still did not suffer from corrosion. After 15 days’ corrosion, besides TiO2 layer, the substrate suffered from corrosion to some degree. The depth of the corrosion layer is about 6 m, which is far lower than that of bare magnesium alloy, 40 m. The results show that TiO2 films effectively improve the corrosion properties of magnesium alloys.

AbstractThe purpose of performed tests was evaluation of resistance to electrochemical corrosion of extruded magnesium alloy AZ31 with additive of 4.5% Li. Corrosion tests were performed in 0.01-2.0 M NaCl solutions. Potentiodynamic tests enabled to register polarisation curves. With application of stereoscopic microscope Nikon SMZ745T and electron scanning microscope Hitachi S-4200, the surface of the alloy was observed after immersion tests performed in 1-6 days. Results of performed tests prove explicitly deterioration of corrosion properties of the alloy with the increase of molar concentration of NaCl solution. It can be seen that corrosion process is intensive and that intensity increases with the increase of solution concentration and extension of exposure time.

The purpose of the study was evaluation of electrochemical corrosion resistance of extruded magnesium alloy AZ31. Corrosion tests were performed in NaCl solutions featuring chloride ions concentration from 0.01 to 2 M NaCl. Potentiodynamic tests enabled to register anodic polarisation curves. Immersion tests were performed in NaCl solution and time 1-5 days. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was used to evaluate phenomena that take place on the surface of the tested alloy. Impedance spectra of the system were made in the tests, and obtained measurement data was matched to the equivalent system. The results of all performed tests prove explicitly deterioration of corrosion properties of extruded magnesium alloy AZ31 with the increase of molar concentration of NaCl solution. Options of magnesium alloy AZ31 application in aircraft and automotive industry are connected with the need for application of protective layers on elements made of the tested alloy.
