摘 要 Mg-Gd系合金作为一种性能优异的轻质镁合金,因其高强度而备受关注。为进一步满足材料轻量化的需求,用轻稀土元素Nd替代Mg-Gd系合金中部分Gd元素是一种有效途径。Nd元素含量的变化以及热处理都对合金的腐蚀行为有着显著的影响。本文详细研究了Nd元素含量变化和热处理对合金微观组织以及腐蚀产物膜的影响。研究结果表明:Nd元素的添加使得合金内部析出相转变为Mg-Gd-Nd化合物,并促进形成了Mg41Nd5相。Nd元素含量变化会导致合金腐蚀产物Mg(OH)2的形貌发生改变。当合金中Nd含量达到4%时,合金表面层片状Mg(OH)2转变为块状Mg(OH)2,腐蚀产物膜的致密性得到进一步提升。在540 ℃热处理条件下,合金内部Mg3(Gd,Nd)相和Mg41Nd5相的分解使得合金的耐腐蚀性能显著提升。

Abstract Mg-Gd system alloys, known for their excellent properties as lightweight materials, have attracted significant attention due to their high strength. To further meet the demand for lightweight materials, replacing part of the Gd elements with the light rare earth element Nd offers an effective approach. The variation in Nd element content and heat treatment significantly impacts the corrosion behavior of the alloy. This paper provides a detailed study on how changes in Nd content and heat treatment affect the microstructure of the alloy and its corrosion product film. The results indicate that the addition of Nd transforms the internal precipitates into Mg-Gd-Nd compounds and promotes the formation of Mg41Nd5 phase. The variation of Nd content influence the morphology of the corrosion product of Mg(OH)2. When the Nd content reaches 4%, the surface lamellar Mg(OH)2 transforms into tetrahedral Mg(OH)2, and thereby increasing the density of the corrosion product film. Under heat treatment condition at 540 ℃, the decomposition of Mg3(Gd, Nd) phase and Mg41Nd5 phase significantly improves the alloy’s corrosion resistance.
