As-cast AM60 magnesium alloy was solid dissolved under a high-pressure of 4 Gpa at different temperatures. The microstructure of the products was observed by optical microscope and the corrosion resistance of the products was investigated. The results show that increasing temperature during solution treatment promotes the dissolution into α-Mg matrix of β-Mg17Al12 in the alloy and improves the corrosion resistance of AM60 alloy, especially for over 400 °C.

Mg-7.3Al magnesium alloys were investigated in the paper. The paper presents microstructural characterization of Mg-7.3Al alloy after casting and heat treatment. The casting temperature was 740°C and heat treatment was performed at 420 °C for 24 h with aging at 180 °C for 8h,16h,24h. The microstructure of the casting alloy consists of α-Mg phase matrix with a primary β phase (Mg17Al12) at grain boundaries. After solution treatment β phases were soluted in α-Mg phase matrix . Aging treatment caused β phases precipitation. The corrosion resistance of magnesium alloy was determined in 3.5 % NaCl by immersion tests and polarization curves. The results shows that the corrosion resistance of magnesium alloy after solution treat is the best than that of the others heat treatment in polarization curve tests and the samples with aging for 16h and 24h presents higher corrosion resistance than those with solution and aging for 8h in immersion tests. Solution treatment plays a main role for corrosion resistance of Mg-7.3Al magnesium alloy in short term corrosion, but more continuous β phases in Mg-7.3Al alloy after ageing act as a barrier and play a main role in long term corrosion.

HA and HA/Col were prepared by a solution treatment on AZ31 magnesium alloy. The microstructure and composition of coatings were studied by SEM, XRD. In vitro study was performed by immersion the sample In Hank’s solution for 7 days. The H2 evolution of the HA/col coating was as low as 0.24 ml/cm2 which can insignificant increase the corrosion resistance of AZ31.

The microstructure and mechanical properties of Mg–2Zn–0.5Ca–1.0Mn alloy under different treatments were investigated. Nano-TiO2 with biological activity was added to the self-optimized silicate electrolyte in order to enhance the corrosion resistance and the activity of micro-arc oxidation (MAO) coatings formed in the aged bio-magnesium alloy silicate electrolyte. Results show that the tensile strength and micro-hardness of solution treatment alloy were 194 MPa and 40.55 HV, respectively, which were increased by 11% and 30% comparing with as-cast alloy. Subsequently, the experimental alloy was aged at 175 °C from 0.5 h to 36 h, the tensile strength of the alloy reached 229 MPa when the alloy was aged to 16 h, which was 55 MPa higher than the as-cast alloy. Besides, the fracture mechanism transformed from the cleavage fracture to quasi-cleavage fracture after heat treatment. Different content of modified nano-TiO2 (1, 3 and 5 g/L) is added into based silicate electrolyte has been utilized to modify the bio-magnesium coatings for precoated metals. The sealing processes on MAO coatings surface effectively improve the corrosion resistance property of the bio-magnesium alloy. As the concentration of nano-TiO2 increases from 0 g/L to 5 g/L, the corrosion potential of MAO ceramic film increases gradually. When the concentration of nano-TiO2 is 5 g/L, the corrosion potential of the formed ceramic film is the highest, reaching – 1.3601 V, this shows that the ceramic membrane has good corrosion resistance.
