摘要
The research explored ways of improving corrosion behaviour of AZ91D magnesium alloy through heat treatment for degradable biocompatible implant application. Corrosion resistance of heat-treated samples is studied in simulated body fluid at 37 degrees C using immersion and electrochemical testing. Heat treatment significantly affected microgalvanic corrosion behaviour between cathodic beta-Mg(17)Al(12) phase and anodic alpha-Mg matrix. In T4 microstructure, dissolution of the beta-Mg(17)Al(12) phase decreased the cathode-to-anode area ratio, leading to accelerated corrosion of alpha-Mg matrix. Fine beta-Mg(17)Al(12) precipitates in T6 microstructure facilitated intergranular corrosion and pitting, but the rate of corrosion was less than those of as-cast and T4 microstructures.
