摘要
The corrosion behaviors of extrusion, under-aged, peaked-aged and over-aged WE93 alloys in Na HSO3 solutions were investigated by optical microscopy（OM）, scanning electron microscopy（SEM） and X-ray diffraction（XRD）.The weight loss rates, corrosion morphologies and polarization curves were analyzed.The peak-aged specimen in Na HSO3 salt spray had the highest corrosion rate of 0.9787 mg/cm2/d, while extrusion specimen led to the lowest of 0.2184 mg/cm2/d.The specimens could be arranged in decreasing order of corrosion rates： extrusion 〈under-aged〈over-aged〈peak-aged. Polarization curves also gave effective evaluation of corrosion rates in agreement. The NaHSO3 played a great role in the corrosion behaviors of WE93 alloys. The main reasons were that HSO3- developed a reaction： O2＋2HSO3 ＋2e→2HSO42→2H＋＋2SO42- to generate H＋, accelerating the process of corrosion reaction. SO4 2- stimulated corrosion and led to an autocatalytic type of reaction： MgZ＋＋SO4^2-＋7H2O→MgSO4-7H2O. XRD characterized that Mg（OH）2 and MgSO4·7H2O were the main corrosion products.
