Corrosion of magnesium
Abstract
Magnesium alloys have high strength/weight ratios, but poor corrosion resistance affects the viability of increased magnesium usage in aerospace and other applications. This review approaches the problem of magnesium corrosion from the standpoint of corrosion science by discussing the thermodynamics, kinetics, and microstructural factors controlling corrosion behaviour. These conditions are then applied to an examination of the types of corrosion that Mg alloys undergo: general, galvanic, pitting, crevice, intergranular, stress corrosion, corrosion fatigue, and high temperature oxidation. Corrosion control measures developed for Mg alloys include the development of high purity or new alloys, rapid solidification, coatings, and surface modification.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
