Abstract

Magnesium alloy/PC/ABS composites were prepared by hot-press molding technology. The bonding strength is the crucial factor to influence the comprehensive performance of this composite, and it was closely related to the different processing parameters such as temperature, pressure and time. After exploring their relationship, the optimal hot-press processing condition was obtained. The micro- and nano-structure of composites also received attention. Before hot-pressed, the magnesium alloy surface was treated by micro-arc oxidation in order to construct the nano-sized pores. With the aid of scanning electron microscope (SEM) and atomic force microscope (AFM), a refined mechanical interlocking structure was observed with the formation of coordinate bonds at the interface of an alloy-polymer hybrid. The binding energy of the chemical elements at the bonding interface of the composite was also tested by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and the analysis concluded that coordination bonds were formed at the bonding interface. The maximum tensile shear strength of the composite reached 9.48 MPa.
