We modified the content of rare-earth elements (REE) in the flux-cored wire used to produce welds of high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steel. The effect of REE addition on the microstructure as well as on the mechanical and electrochemical properties of the welded metal (WM) was investigated. REE-modified welded metals show very different responses during electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and the potentiodynamic polarization tests. The results indicate that the addition of REE of 0.3 wt.% facilitates a more uniform microstructure and improves both mechanical properties and corrosion resistance in welded metals.

Rare earth magnesium alloys and Mg-Zn-Cu alloys were prepared by gravity casting and direct squeezing casting respectively, and the corrosion performances of three kinds of Mg-Zn-Cu alloys were compared in this paper. The results indicate that adding rare earth elements and direct squeezing casting process can significantly increase the mechanical properties of magnesium alloys, and aluminum can improve the corrosion resistance of magnesium alloys.
