Electrodeposition of zinc on AZ91D magnesium alloy pre‐treated by stannate conversion coatings

Abstract: A stannate chemical conversion process followed by an activation procedure was employed as the pre-treatment process for AZ91D magnesium alloy substrate. Zn was electroplated onto the pre-treated AZ91D magnesium alloy surface from pyrophosphate bath to improve the corrosion resistance and the solderability. The surface morphologies of conversion coating and zinc coating were examined with scanning electron microscope (SEM). The phase composition of conversion coating was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD)… Show more

“…The continuous development of the light industry has increased demand for magnesium alloys, especially Mg-Al-Zn [26]. However, magnesium alloys are prone to be eroded [27,28,29,30], limiting practical applications. There are quite a few reasons that can account for the corrosion of magnesium alloys [31,32,33]; for instance, moist or polluted atmosphere, temperature, microorganisms, concentration of Cl − , Br − , SO 4 2− and NO 3 − , pH, etc.…”

“…6,7 Electrodeposited Zn and Zn based alloys are useful corrosion protective coatings for magnesium alloys. 8 The electrodeposition of Zn coating is usually produced in aqueous solution. Yet, magnesium and its alloys are considered to be water sensitive substrates and difficult to electroplate because of their high chemical reactivity.…”

“…Unfortunately, their poor corrosion properties hinder their widespread use in many applications 1–3. There are a number of technologies including electrochemical plating, conversion coatings, anodizing, hydride coatings, organic coatings, and vapor‐phase processes available which have been used to enhance their corrosion resistance 4–22, but the vapor‐phase processes cost more and cover rather smaller areas than anodization and conversion coating treatment, which limits their applications.…”
