Abstract

The corrosion degradation rate of pure magnesium and forged Mg-Zn-Zr/-Y magnesium alloy was compared by static immersion corrosion weight loss experiment and electrochemical corrosion experiment at constant temperature (37±0.5°C) and room temperature (25±1°C) SBF to simulate the corrosion degradation rate in body fluids. The results show that the corrosion resistance of magnesium alloy can be improved by adding Zn, Zr, Y compared with pure magnesium. The results of static immersion corrosion test and electrochemical corrosion test of forged Mg-Zn-Zr-Y show that the corrosion resistance of magnesium alloy can be improved by adding Zn, Zr, Y element. The average corrosion rate of the forged Mg-Zn-Zr-Y alloy was 0.62mm/a by weight loss method after 240 h immersion corrosion in SBF at 37 ± 0.5 °C, and the corrosion resistance of forged Mg-Zn-Zr-Y alloy was better than Mg-Zn-Zr alloy.
