Abstract
This study investigated the microstructural and corrosion resistance modifications in Mg–0.8% Si alloy with Sn addition. Sn effectively refined Mg2Si morphology and distribution. Mg–8% Sn–0.8% Si consisted of α-Mg, Mg2Si, and Mg2Sn phases, with Mg2Sn enriched at grain boundaries. Sn significantly enhanced corrosion resistance by 14–17 times, with limited improvement beyond 8% Sn. Mg2Sn formation, SnO2 layer, and fine Mg2Si barrier contributed to improved corrosion resistance.
期刊介绍:
Protection of Metals and Physical Chemistry of Surfaces is an international peer reviewed journal that publishes articles covering all aspects of the physical chemistry of materials and interfaces in various environments. The journal covers all related problems of modern physical chemistry and materials science, including: physicochemical processes at interfaces; adsorption phenomena; complexing from molecular and supramolecular structures at the interfaces to new substances, materials and coatings; nanoscale and nanostructured materials and coatings, composed and dispersed materials; physicochemical problems of corrosion, degradation and protection; investigation methods for surface and interface systems, processes, structures, materials and coatings. No principe restrictions exist related systems, types of processes, methods of control and study. The journal welcomes conceptual, theoretical, experimental, methodological, instrumental, environmental, and all other possible studies.
