Abstract
Friction stir processing (FSP) was performed on as-cast biodegradable Mg-2Zn-xGa (x = 3, 5, 7 wt%) alloys and the effects of Ga on the corrosion behaviors of FSPed Mg-2Zn-xGa were systematically investigated in this work. Increasing Ga content in the alloys could remarkably refine the microstructure and weaken the texture of FSPed Mg-2Zn-xGa due to stimulated recrystallization and grain-growth hindrance induced by increasing Mg5Ga2 precipitates. FSPed Mg-2Zn-3Ga had the lowest corrosion rate (0.23 mm/y) due to the almost complete dissolution of Mg5Ga2 precipitates, strongest (0001) basal texture, and largest number fraction of low angular grain boundary induced by FSP. With increasing Ga content, FSPed Mg-2Zn-xGa showed finer grains but faster corrosion rate due to the existence of increasing Mg5Ga2 precipitates, weaker (0001) basal texture, and lower number fraction of low angular grain boundary. The corrosion products presented a double-layer structure with an outer layer dominated by Ca3(PO4)2 and an inner layer dominated by Mg(OH)2.
