Corrosion behaviour of pure Mg, AS31 and AZ91 in buffered and unbuffered sulphate and chloride solutions
Source abstract
Abstract
The low corrosion resistance of magnesium limited its application in industrial affairs. The main corrosive anions for magnesium are sulphate and chloride. This paper deals with their effect at low concentrations on the corrosion behaviour of Mg and Mg based alloy (AS31 and AZ91) in presence/absence of buffer solutions (pH 8). The electrochemical measurements used are open circuit potential and potentiodynamic polarisation. The results exposed that in the absence of a protective layer, general corrosion is observed to occur at greater rate than when sulphate is present; however, the general corrosion is transformed to localised corrosion faster in presence of chloride. In the presence of a protective layer, the localised corrosion is perceived in the case of chloride more than sulphate. The presence of aluminium in the alloys has two contradictory actions. One increases the passivity of the formed layer and the other increases the localised corrosion. The percentage of aluminium in the alloy controls these actions.
