Popis: | Al−Zn−Mg alloys with different Zn/Mg mass ratios were evaluated as sacrificial anodes for cathodic protection of carbon steel in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution. The anodes were fabricated from pure Al, Zn and Mg metals using casting technique. Optical microscopy, SEM−EDS, XRD and electrochemical techniques were used. The results indicated that with decreasing Zn/Mg mass ratio, the grain size of α(Al) and the particle size of the precipitates decreased while the volume fraction of the precipitates increased. The anode with Zn/Mg mass ratio >4.0 exhibited the lowest corrosion rate, while the anode with Zn/Mg mass ratio |
