Effect of Nd Element of Mg-Nd Binary Alloy on the Corrosion Resistance in Sulfate-Reducing Bacteria Solution

In this paper, the corrosion resistances of Mg-Nd binary alloys with various contents of the neodymium (Nd) element in sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) were studied. In the SRB medium, the results of weight loss experiments showed that the increase in the Mg(12)Nd phase in the alloy increased the gal...

Sumario:In this paper, the corrosion resistances of Mg-Nd binary alloys with various contents of the neodymium (Nd) element in sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) were studied. In the SRB medium, the results of weight loss experiments showed that the increase in the Mg(12)Nd phase in the alloy increased the galvanic corrosion and the corrosion rate. However, when the continuous network distribution of the second phase formed, the corrosion resistance of the alloy improved. The biofilm was formed by the adhesion of the SRB. Meanwhile, the protection from the corrosion improved due to the corrosion products, which prevent the penetration of corrosive ions. On the other hand, the products of biological metabolism accelerated the corrosion of the matrix.
