Abstract

The micro-arc oxidation protective film has been prepared on the surface of Mg-9%Gd -2%Y-3%Nd-0.7%Zr alloy by using the microarc oxidation technique of “step by step depressurization”. The microstructure of magnesium alloy substrate and micro-arc oxidation film were measured by OM, SEM and XRD, and the properties of the film were evaluated by electrochemical test of film thickness and surface morphology. The results show that the discontinuous network multiple eutectic phases are distributed in the grain boundary and there are dispersed-granular precipitates in the alloy matrix. After the micro-arc oxidation treatment, the thickness and corrosion resistance of the micro-arc oxidation film increased with the increase of oxidation time, and the surface micropore size increased first and then decreased, and the surface morphology of the micro-arc oxidation film changed from no micro-crack to micro-crack, and finally the micro-crack disappeared.
