Electrochemical behavior of a magnesium ZK60 alloy processed by high-pressure torsion

Electrochemical behavior of a magnesium ZK60 alloy processed by high-pressure torsion
Electrochemical behavior of a magnesium ZK60 alloy processed by high-pressure torsion

High-pressure torsion (HPT) was used to evaluate the effect of straining on the electrochemical properties of a ZK60 magnesium alloy. The samples were processed using HPT up to 20 turns and the electrochemical responses were examined through polarization, EIS, Mott–Schottky and hydrogen evolution tests. Electron back-scatter diffraction (EBSD) studies showed more homogeneity with finer average grain sizes accompanied by the evolution of a nobler texture when increasing the numbers of HPT turns. Ultimately, this led to improved corrosion behavior for the HPT-processed disks. Post corrosion observations revealed improved protective layers after higher turns of HPT.

Abstract

High-pressure torsion (HPT) was used to evaluate the effect of straining on the electrochemical properties of a ZK60 magnesium alloy. The samples were processed using HPT up to 20 turns and the electrochemical responses were examined through polarization, EIS, Mott–Schottky and hydrogen evolution tests. Electron back-scatter diffraction (EBSD) studies showed more homogeneity with finer average grain sizes accompanied by the evolution of a nobler texture when increasing the numbers of HPT turns. Ultimately, this led to improved corrosion behavior for the HPT-processed disks. Post corrosion observations revealed improved protective layers after higher turns of HPT.
