摘要
Magnesium is easily corroded in the presence of saltwater, limiting its use in the automotive industry. The magnesium microstructure greatly affects the corrosion rate, due to various additional elements. In the Center for Advanced Vehicular Systems at Mississippi State University, the effects of immersion and cyclical salt spray testing on various as-cast and extruded magnesium alloys is currently being examined. Previous work on an as-cast AE44 magnesium alloy has demonstrated that individual pit characteristics, such as pit depth, pit area, and pit volume, were deeper and larger following exposure to the immersion environment. However, the data elucidating the corrosion effects on individual pit characteristics has only been seen on as-cast magnesium containing rare earth elements, not on extruded magnesium alloys or zinc-containing magnesium alloys, both common magnesium forms. The research presented here will cover the effects of individual pit characteristics formed on various magnesium alloys due to the different environments.
