Herein, a comprehensive investigation on the effects of the combinations of Zn and Sn in different forms (atom during hot-dip aluminizing and cation during immersion in molten chloride salt) on the microstructure and whisker growth on the hot-dip aluminized coating on Fe-Cr-B cast steel was conducted by hot-dip aluminizing-thermal diffusion treatment, and immersion in molten chloride salts. We demonstrated that all the interactions of the combinations of Zn and Sn in different forms (atom and cation) with the Cr-Al-B MAB phases could partially replace the Al atoms in the Cr-Al-B MAB phases contained in the periodic layered structure, leading to the formation of the corresponding Cr-Al-B MAB phase solid solutions and the spontaneous growth of whiskers. The replacement ability during immersion in molten chloride salt was stronger than that during hot-dip aluminizing under the driving force of formation of the volatile chlorides (like AlCl<sub>3</sub>). The replacement ability of Zn and Sn in different forms as they substituted the Al atoms in the Cr-Al-B MAB phase was in the order: Sn<sup>2+</sup>>Zn<sup>2+</sup>>Sn>Zn. Sn facilitates the formation of Zn vacancy, which promoted that whisker with complex compositions (head being Zn and body being Sn and head being Sn and body being Zn) grew on the Cr-(Al, Sn, Zn)-B MAB phase solid solution. The matter source to feed the growth of whisker played a key role in the spontaneous growth of whisker under the both mechanisms of diffusion and stress.

A self-made 5 KN electronic servo testing machine was used to apply a sinusoidal wave load (stress ratio R = 0.1, frequency = 0.5 Hz) to single-edge notched tensile specimens. The notches were located at the weld, heat-affected zone (HAZ) and steel/aluminium interface (abbreviated as interface). The fatigue crack propagation rate (da/dN) of different micro-regions in steel/aluminium welded joints followed the order of interface > weld > HAZ under corrosive environment and air conditions. Compared with air, the corrosive environment triggered a markedly higher da/dN, irrespective of notch location at the weld, HAZ or interface. This accelerated da/dN resulted from the combined effects of anodic dissolution, chloride ions and galvanic corrosion. The electron backscatter diffraction results indicated that compared with the weld and HAZ specimens, the HAZ specimen exhibited lower da/dN, attributed to its small grains, higher proportion of high-angle grain boundaries and increased geometrically necessary dislocation density. Fatigue striations were clearly observed on the weld and HAZ fracture surfaces, while a brittle fracture pattern was observed on the corrosion fatigue fracture surface for the interface.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":290,"journal":{"name":"Corrosion Science","volume":"241 ","pages":"Article 112536"},"PeriodicalIF":7.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142587233","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
