The fabricated functional coatings were investigated using scanning electron microscopy(SEM), X-ray diffraction(XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR). A triple-layered structure, which is composed of Ca_3(PO_4)_2,(Ca, Mg)_3(PO_4)_2, SnO_2, and MgHPO_4·3 H_2O, is evident and leads to the formation of Ca_(10)(PO_4)_6(OH)_2 in Hank's solution. Electrochemical measurements, hydrogen evolution tests and plating counts reveal that the corrosion resistance and antibacterial activity were improved through the coating treatment. The embedded SnO_2 nanoparticles enhanced crystallisation of the coating.The formation and degradation mechanisms of the coating were discussed.展开更多

The results demonstrated that exfoliation corrosion occurred on extruded Mg-1 Li-1 Ca alloy due to elongated microstructure parallel to surface, and delamination of lamellar structure resulted from galvanic effect and wedge effect. Skin layer with fine grains exhibited better corrosion resistance, whereas the interior with coarse grains and the intermetallic compound,Mg2 Ca particles existing in a fibrous structure, dispersed along grain boundaries and extrusion direction in a line. Furthermore, galvanic effect between Mg2 Ca particles and their neighboring a-Mg matrix facilitated dissolution of Mg2 Ca particles and a-Mg matrix; wedge effect was caused by formation of corrosion products. Exfoliation corrosion of extruded Mg-Li-Ca alloys might be a synergic effect of pitting corrosion,filiform corrosion, intergranular corrosion and stress corrosion. Finally, exfoliation corrosion mechanism was proposed.展开更多

The temperature field and plastic material flow pattern were analyzed on the basis of experimental and finite element simulation results. Microstructure and tensile properties of the repaired specimens were studied. The results showed that the entire crack repairing was a solid-phase process and plastic materials tended to flow toward the shoulder center and then resulted in the repairing of cracks. Meanwhile, the coarse grain structures were refined in repaired zone (RZ), while the grains in thermal-mechanically affected zone and heat-affected zone were elongated and driven to grow up. Meanwhile, large phases are crushed into small particles and dispersed inside the RZ. Finally, the strength of the repaired specimens can be restored dramatically and their ductility can be partially restored. After heat treatment, the tensile properties of the repaired specimens can be further enhanced.展开更多
