Structure of Oxidation Film on Ignition-proof ZM5 Magnesium Alloys with MM (Mitschmetal) Addition
Ignition point of ZM5 magnesium alloy with 0.1%MM addition can be increased by approximately 206℃. Microstructure of the ZM5 magnesium alloy with 0.1% MM addition was observed by SEM (scanning electron microscope)
EDS (energy dispersive spectrum and XRD (X-ray diffraction). The results indicate that compact oxidation film composed of RE2O3
MgO
Al

O

and Mg17Al12 phase is created on the surface of the ZM5 magnesium alloy
on which MM exhibits obvious enrichment. Thermodynamic analysis of the forming process of oxide film reveals that interaction between RE and MgO can increase the RE2O3 content in middle layer
resulting in the improvement of compactness of middle layer
which is responsible for the improvement of ignition-proof effects of ZM5 magnesium alloy.
