RT Journal Article SR Electronic A1 Dvorský, Drahomír A1 Kubásek, Jiří A1 Kristianová, Eva A1 Vojtěch, Dalibor T1 Corrosion Resistant Magnesium-Based Composite Material with MgF2 Continuous Network Prepared by Powder Metallurgy JF Manufacturing Technology Journal YR 2018 VO 18 IS 5 SP 737 OP 741 DO 10.21062/ujep/169.2018/a/1213-2489/MT/18/5/737 UL https://journalmt.com/artkey/mft-201805-0007.php AB This paper enhances an innovative way of preparation of the composite materials by powder metallurgy. Magnesium-fluoride composite material prepared by spark plasma sintering exerted improved corrosion resistance. Magnesium powder was coated by boiling of Mg powder in concentrated NaOH and subsequent immersion in HF. Treated powder was successfully compacted via spark plasma sintering. The composite material with a continuous network of MgF2 is prepared and it exerts improved mechanical and highly enhanced corrosion resistance compared with the pure magnesium.
