Abstract
The corrosion of a magnesium-based MMC, comprising a AZ91D alloy matrix and 5 vol% titanium carbide particles has been studied in saline environments, using immersion and electrochemical tests. Corrosion was localized initially and developed subsequently into general corrosion , the local corrosion rate of AZ91D/TiCp being faster than diecast AZ91D due to the formation of less protective corrosion products. Galvanic corrosion for AZ91D/TiCp, due to coupling of the matrix and reinforcement, was more severe than diecast AZ91D.
