摘要
An environmental friendly anodizing treatment (Anomag) from a phosphate-based so lution without heavy metals on AZ91D magnesium alloy was studied. The characteri stics of the coatings, such as structure, composition and corrosion resistance w ere investigated. The effects of this anodizing treatment on the mechanical prop erties were examined. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed that the structu re of the coatings is amorphous or glassy. In salt spray tests coatings with an average thickness of 10μm had an anticorrosive performance of over 1000 hours. Fatigue tests revealed that anodizing onto AZ91D magnesium alloy does not affect the fatigue strength. These results demonstrate the utility of this anodizing t reatment on magnesium alloy for application as a structural material, such as in the automotive field.
