The calculated results showed that La atoms preferred occupying surface sites to the bulk sites, which suggested the La surface segregation. When oxygen atoms adsorbed on a pure or La alloyed Mg （0001） surface, certain amount of heat would release, and La alloying made the heat released less, which might increase the ignition point of Mg alloy. Both Mg and La had strong atomic affinity with oxygen, so the oxidation film of Mg-La alloys consisted of MgO, La2O3. The denser La2O3 turned oxide film into free and close structure, and prevented oxygen from passing through the oxidation film. The La-O covalent bonding could explain why La2O3 was compact, and resulted in good ignition-proof of Mg-La alloys.展开更多
