Electrochemical behavior of this coating was investigated by an- odic polarization and open circuit potential measurement. Its microstructure and composition were observed by scanning electron microscope and energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry, respectively. The long lasting corrosion performance of coated steels was in- vestigated under the salt fog spray test. From anodic polarization curves and open circuit potential, recycled Al with 8.2 mass% Mg coating performed adequate sacrificial ability. At 0.40 V, current density of recycled Al with 8.2 mass% Mg alloy coating was about 200 000 times higher than that of pure recycled Al coating, and was about 0.5 times lower than that of Zn coating. The microstruc- ture of recycled Al with 8.2 mass% Mg alloy coating on the steel substrate consisted ofAl3Mg2, Al-Fe intermetallic compound and Al matrix. The results from salt fog spray test showed that recycled Al with 8.2 mass% Mg alloy coated steel had similar corrosion resistance ability to Zn coated steel.展开更多

The segregation be- haviors, microstructure morphology and evolution mechanism of iron-rich phases in Mg-A1-Si alloy melts were studied, after AI-14Si-4Fe （wt%） alloys were added and dissolved completely. In the Mg-A1-Si alloys, iron has very little solubility and tends to combine with other elements to form intermetallic phases, which grow into a deposition layer due to the higher density. During the cooling and solidifying process of Mg-A1-Si melts, the needle-like AlsSiFe phase in AI-14Si-4Fe alloy evolved into blocky AI5Fe2 and Al0.7Fe3Si0.3 phases. Besides, the Fe levels of the Mg-AI-Si master alloys were reduced to 0.017 wt% from nominal content of 0.164 wt%. Based on the above results, this work carried out a semi-quantitative phase- compositions analysis for the deposition layer by relative intensity ratio （RIR） method, and evolution mechanism of the iron-rich phases had also been discussed. This study has paved a new way to regen- erate the scrap AI-Si-Fe alloys, which has a great significance of promoting the recycling of aluminum resources.展开更多
