Two methods for impeding the detrimental impact of iron (Fe) impurity in magnesium (Mg)
alloys on the corrosion properties are studied: the addition of manganese (Mn) and the …

The factors determining corrosion are reviewed in this paper, with an emphasis on iron
tolerance limit and the production of high-purity castings. To understand the iron impurity …

Significant improvements in the corrosion resistance of commercially cast magnesium-
aluminum alloys have been achieved during the past decade by reducing the heavy metal …

The effect of Y addition on Fe-removal effect in magnesium melt was investigated using pure
magnesium with a high level of Fe impurity. It was confirmed that Fe concentration was …

The corrosion of commercial die-cast Mg–Al alloys was elucidated by a study, of the
corrosion in 3% NaCl, of (i) high-pressure die-cast (HPDC) model Mg–Al alloys,(ii) low-purity …

In the present study, the corrosion behavior of AXJ530 magnesium alloy with different iron
and manganese contents is investigated in 3.5 wt% sodium chloride solution in order to …

Tooling materials used in the synthesizing of Mg alloys can introduce impurities, which can
severely degrade the anticorrosion properties for the final Mg products. To address this …

Manganese (Mn) and zirconium (Zr) are two common alloying additions in Magnesium. Both
of these elements have very low solubility in Mg, but serve a specific purpose. Mn is known …

Four Mg alloys with variations in the ratio of Mn, Zr and Fe additions were cast and their
microstructures analysed via electron microscopy. Thermodynamic calculations of the …

The development of secondary magnesium alloys requires a completely different concept
compared with standard alloys which obtain their corrosion resistance by reducing the levels …
