At low load,the wear mechanism is abrasive wear and oxidation wear.At high load,the wear mechanism changes to delamination wear for all the composites.展开更多

文摘An Al2O3 protective coating on magnesium alloy AZ31 was prepared by a repeated direct sol-gel process annealing at 300℃and a composite coating was also deposited using Al2O3 particles dispersed sol followed by phosphating treatment and annealing at 300℃.The morphologies,structures and critical adhesive loads as well as corrosion properties of the coatings were comparatively investigated by scanning electron microscopy(SEM),X-ray diffractometry(XRD),nanoscratch test and electrochemical measurement.The results show that the composite coating has a more uniform,crack-free layer and improved adhesion to the substrate as compared with that of the repeated direct sol-gel coating owing to its lower heat strain.The main phases in both coatings consist ofγ-Al2O3 andδ-Al2O3 derived from annealed alumina sol,and the composite coating has an anticorrosion performance which is superior to that of the repeated direct sol-gel coating.
