Abstract

Abstract In order to understand the effect of additive Al 2 O 3 powders on the film corrosion resistance and the microstructure of the micro-arc oxide (MAO) ceramic film of magnesium alloy, AZ91D die cast magnesium alloy was oxidized with a special micro-arc apparatus. Morphological characteristics and phase constituent of ceramic coatings were analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). And the aluminum (Al) element of before and after the Al 2 O 3 accession were analyzed by energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX). The results showed that after adding Al 2 O 3 powders, pores on ceramic coatings decreased, the loose layer became more compact, the new phase of Al 2 O 3 appeared, and the Al element of the ceramic membrane increased. Ultrasonic waves promoted the content of Al 2 O 3 in the layer. Electrochemical corrosion experiments in 3.5% NaCl solution showed that the corrosion resistance of ceramic coatings after adding Al 2 O 3 powders was improved greatly.
