Effects of Zr Ion Implantation on Surface Mechanical Properties and Corrosion Resistance of Pure Magnesium
Source abstract
Abstract
Zirconium (Zr) was implanted into pure Mg by metal vapor vacuum arc (MEVVA) at the dose of 2 × 1016 ions/cm2 at room temperature. The surface characteristics of Zr-implanted Mg were analyzed by the Stopping and Range of Ions in Matter software (SRIM) and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), the surface nanohardness and tribological behavior were measured through nanoindentation and a friction-abrasion testing machine, and the corrosion resistance of Zr-implanted Mg was evaluated by electrochemical measurement and immersion test in simulated body fluid (SBF). The results demonstrated that a gradient modified layer composed of MgO, Mg(OH)2, ZrO2 and Zr was formed on the near surface of pure Mg and the nanohardness of pure Mg was improved by 48%. Furthermore, the Zr-implanted Mg exhibited a more positive corrosion potential of − 1.43 V (versus SCE) and a lower corrosion current density of 19.9 μA/cm2, and localized corrosion was effectively retarded during 24 h immersion in SBF, suggesting that the corrosion resistance of pure Mg was remarkably improved after Zr ion implantation. The mechanisms of surface strengthening and improved corrosion resistance were also discussed in this paper.
