The corrosion behaviors of magnesium alloy AZ9lC and its Al2O3(short-fibre)-reinforced metal matrix composite (MMC) in alkaline solutions (PH 10.5) containing chloride were compared rising potentiodymnnic polarization measurements, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and immersion tests. Dependence of polarization characteristics (corrosion potential and corrosion current density) on chloride concentration was similar for both materials. The corrosion potential Ecorr decreased linearly with the logarithm of chloride concentration, while the corrosion current density Icorr increased rapidly at chloride concentrations larger than 0.1%, with the Icorr for the MMC consistentIy higher than that for AZ91C, reaching a factor of about 3 in 3.5% sodium chloride solution. EIS data indicated that the protective film on the MMC was inferior to that on the matrix alloy. With stirring and at frequencies higher than 5 Hz, the electrode/electrolyte interface might be described by the simplified Randles model for both materials. Immersion tests showed that the corrosion rate of the MMC, in terms of weight loss, was about 7 times that of the matrix alloy. Thus the present investigation indicated that in alkaline solutions containing chloride ions, the presence of Al2O3 short fibres in the alloy did not drastically alter the corrosion behavior, but significantly reduced its corrosion resistance. Kewyords: magnesium alloy, Al2O3-reinforced metal matrix composite, effect of chloride concentration, polarization, corrosion potential, corrosion rate, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy.
