Magnesium is one of the largely available elements in the earth's crust. It has a low structural
density with high specific strength. This unique material property has forced an increase in …

There remains growing interest in magnesium (Mg) and its alloys, as they are the lightest
structural metallic materials. Mg alloys have the potential to enable design of lighter …

This paper provides a review of recent developments in the field of Mg corrosion and puts
those into context. This includes considerations of corrosion manifestations, material …

Through a simple chemical etching and surface modification, superhydrophobic surfaces
with tunable water adhesion were prepared on rolled Mg-3Al-1Zn (AZ31) and Mg-9Al-1Zn …

Magnesium (Mg) dissolution is distinct from other engineering metals, as Mg can support
cathodic hydrogen evolution on its surface during anodic polarisation. The phenomenon of …

This review summarizes recent insights into the Mg corrosion mechanism, clarifies many
critical controversial points regarding the Mg corrosion behaviour, and updates some efforts …

The corrosion and electrochemical behaviour of carefully prepared ultra-lightweight
magnesium-lithium (Mg-Li) alloys were investigated and compared. The alloy compositions …

The designing idea for the chemical conversion coating with high corrosion resistance (CR)
and low electrical contact resistance (ECR) on AZ91D Mg alloy was presented. The main …

This article provides a contribution towards the mechanistic understanding of surface
phenomena observed during the corrosion of Mg-based substrates particularly in the low …

The accumulation of impurities more noble than magnesium (Mg) during dissolution has
been suggested to be responsible for the enhanced catalytic activity of hydrogen evolution …
