The results showed that ZQMn12-8-3-2 had better cavitation erosion resistance than ZHMn55-3-1. After the cavitation erosion for 6 h, the cumulative mass loss of ZQMn12-8-3-2 was about 1/3 that of ZHMn55-3-1. The corrosion current density of ZQMn12-8-3-2 was less than that of ZHMn55-3-1 under both static and cavitaiton condition. The free-corrosion potentials of ZQMn12-8-3-2 and ZHMn55-3-1 were all shifted in positive direction under cavitation condition compared to static condition. In the total cumulative mass loss under cavitation condition, the pure erosion played a key role for the two tested materials （74% for ZHMn55-3-1 and 60% for ZQMn12-8-3-2）, and the total synergism between corrosion and erosion of ZQMn12-8-3-2 （39%） was larger than that of ZHMn55-3-1 （23%）. The high cavitation erosion resistance of ZQMn12-8-3-2 was mainly attributed to its lower stacking fault energy （SFE）, the higher microhardness and work-hardening ability as well as the favorable propagation of cavitation cracks for ZQMn12-8-3-2, i.e., parallel to the surface rather than perpendicular to the surface for ZHMn55-3-1.展开更多
