Abstract: | Mg-6Al-1Zn-xFe (x = 0, 1, 3, 5 and 7 wt%) alloys were prepared by powder metallurgy and followed by hot extrusion. Majority of Fe element exists as insoluble particles in the alloys. The as-extruded alloys showed higher degradable rates but less stable mechanical properties than as-annealed alloys. Corrosion rate of all the alloys increased with increasing Fe concentration, reaching 2.4 mL cm−2 h-1. 0.2% yield strength of all the alloys was higher than 150 MPa. In short, Mg-6Al-1Zn-xFe alloys have an attractive combination of corrosion and mechanical properties, which holds a bright future for fracturing balls applications. |
