Abstract
The effect of 26 alloying elements on the corrosion resistance of high-purity magnesium in a 0.5-n solution of sodium chloride and in a humid atmosphere (0.005 n) is studied. The Mg – Li, Mg – Ag, Mg – Zn, Mg – Cu, Mg – Gd, Mg – Al, Mg – Zr, Mg – Mn and other binary systems, which present interest as a base for commercial or perspective castable magnesium alloys, are studied. The characteristics of corrosion resistance of the binary alloys are analyzed in accordance with the group and period of the Mendeleev’s periodic law. The roles of the electrochemical and volume factors and of the factor of the valence of the dissolved element are determined.
