Glancing angle X-ray diffraction (GAXRD) was employed to examine the phase transformation due to the copper ion implantation. The potcntiodynamic polarization technique was used to evaluate the aqueous corrosion resistance of implanted ZIRLO alloy in a 1 mol/L H2SO4 solution. It was found that a significant improvement was achieved in the aqueous corrosion resistance of ZIRLO alloy implanted with copper ions when the fluence is 5×10^16 ions/cm^2. When the fluence is 1×10^16 or 1×10^17 ions/cm^2, the corrosion resistance of implanted sanaples was bad. Finally, the mechanism of the corrosion behavior of copper-implanted ZIRLO alloy was discussed.展开更多

The effects of Fe content(1.08wt%–2.01wt%) on the microstructure, segregation, and flushing corrosion resistance in simulated flowing seawater as well as the mechanical properties of the alloy tubes were investigated. The results show that when the Fe content is increased from 1.08wt% to 2.01wt%, the segregation degree of Ni and Fe elements increases, and the segregation coefficient of Ni and Fe elements falls from 0.92 to 0.70 and from 0.92 to 0.63, respectively. With increasing Fe content, the corrosion rate of the alloy decreases initially and then increases. When the Fe content is 1.83wt%, the corrosion rate approaches the minimum and dense, less-defect corrosion films, which contain rich Ni and Fe elements, form on the surface of the alloy; these films effectively protect the α-matrix and reduce the corrosion rate. When the Fe content is increased from 1.08wt% to 2.01wt%, the tensile strength of the alloy tube increases from 204 MPa to 236 MPa, while the elongation to failure changes slightly about 46%, indicating the excellent workability of the CuNi10FeMn1 alloy tubes.展开更多
