Abstract
The weak corrosion resistance of magnesium and its alloys greatly limited the industrial application.Though functional self-healing coatings have been proposed as countermeasures,repeated damages on coatings under practical installation and complex external environments could require self-adaptive cor-rosion protection against multiple abrasions.In this study,an ultra-high corrosion-resistant Mg-1Zn-1Sc(wt.%)alloy with a corrosion rate of 0.087 mm/y has been designed and prepared,which has fine grains and uniform structure of a nano-scale ScZn phase with low potential.A unique and dense corrosion prod-uct film with a three-layered structure was found and studied on Mg-1Zn-1Sc alloy,providing excellent corrosion protection.In addition,the formation and protection mechanisms of the three-layered corrosion product film on Mg-1Zn-1Sc alloy have been discussed and proposed.The growth behavior of protective corrosion product film could be driven by the synergy of Sc and Zn elements.Furthermore,with the in-crease of Sc content,the strength,plasticity,and corrosion resistance of Mg-1Zn-xSc(x=0,0.2,0.6,1.0,in wt.%)alloys increased simultaneously.The high corrosion resistance and moderate mechanical perfor-mance qualify Mg-1Zn-1Sc alloy as a promising candidate for diverse industrial applications.
