Abstract
The microstructure and corrosion behavior of the extruded ZK60 Mg alloys with different Cu content were comparatively investigated. The ZK60 alloy had a microstructure consisting of α-Mg grains with intermetallic MgZn2 and Zn2Zr3 particles. The addition of 1 wt % Cu resulted in the additional presence of CuMgZn particles. In a 0.6 M NaCl solution at 25 °C, the corrosion rate of the alloy with the added Cu appeared to be about 16% faster than that of the alloy without the addition of Cu. The factors affecting the degraded corrosion resistance of the Cu-added ZK60 alloy are discussed.
