It is shown that 5.3% aluminium-zinc alloy (weight ratio) has superior anti-corrosion property. The determined microstructure has displayed amorphous structure composed of nanometer sized particle of the system. The analysis indicated large negative change of Gibbs energy of 5.3% aluminium-zinc system. Molecular dynamics simulation showed that 5.3% aluminium-zinc system has very different behavior from other systems. A phase transition of this particular system was observed from simulation. The transition temperature was determined around 400 K. The simulation indicated that 5.3% aluminium-zinc system is amorphous over temperature range from 300 to 900 K, supporting the inference from experiments that amorphous solid of aluminium-zinc alloy has special anti-corrosion character.展开更多
