Microstructure characterization and effect of extrusion temperature on biodegradation behavior of Mg-5Zn-1Y-xCa alloy

Mg-5Zn-1Y-xCa合金的显微组织表征及挤压温度对其生物降解行为的影响（英文）

Microstructure and biodegradation behavior of as-cast and hot extruded Mg-5Zn-1Y alloy containing different amountsof calcium （0.0%, 0.1%, 0.5%, and 1.0%, mass fraction） were explored. The extrusion process was conducted at three differenttemperatures of 300, 330, and 370 ℃. Chemical composition, phase constitution, microstructure, and biodegradation behavior of thealloys were investigated. The macro- and micro-scopic examination revealed that the addition of Ca refines the grain structure andforms an intermetallic phase, Ca2Mg6Zn3. The hot extrusion process resulted in breaking the intermetallic phases into fine particlesrouted to the extrusion direction. Moreover, dynamic recrystallization happened in almost all alloys, and more bimodalmicrostructure was formed in the alloys when the alloys were extruded at 370 ℃. Polarization curves showed no passive region,which indicated that active polarization dominated in the alloys; therefore, grain refining through Ca addition and dynamicrecrystallization over hot extrusion operation increased biodegradation rate. The results show that the as-cast Mg-5Zn-1Y-0.1Caalloy provides the highest corrosion resistance, and the extruded Mg-5Zn-1Y-0.5Ca alloy at 300 ℃ shows the lowestbiodegradation rate among the extruded alloys. Therefore, hot extrusion does not always improve the biodegradation behavior ofmagnesium alloys.

研究不同钙含量(0.0%、0.1%、0.5%和1.0%,质量分数)的铸态和热挤压态Mg-5Zn-1Y合金的显微组织和生物降解行为,挤压温度分别为300、330和370°C。研究合金的化学成分、相组成、显微组织和生物降解行为。宏观和微观检测表明,钙的加入细化了晶粒结构,形成了金属间化合物相Ca2Mg6Zn3。热挤压过程使金属间化合物相破碎为细小颗粒,并沿挤压方向分布。而且,几乎所有的合金中都发生了动态再结晶,且在370°C挤压的合金中形成了更多的双态组织。极化曲线显示无钝化区,表明活性极化在合金中占主导地位,因此,通过添加钙使晶粒细化和通过热挤压发生动态再结晶会增加合金的生物降解速率。研究结果表明,铸态Mg-5Zn-1Y-0.1Ca合金的耐腐蚀性最好,而在挤压态合金中,300°C挤压的Mg-5Zn-1Y-0.5Ca合金表现出最低的生物降解速率。因此,热挤压并非总是能改善镁合金的生物降解行为。
