Özet
Resistance spot welding (RSW) of magnesium alloys is very attractive due to not require filler metal. AZ31 Mg alloy sheets were exposed to RSW by constant weld electrode pressure, constant weld times, and numerous weld currents. The potentiodynamic polarization technique was used for the investigation of the corrosion behavior of the alloys. Results showed that the dendritic structure was promoted at the weld zone. AZ31 base metal is more resistant to corrosion than welded alloys. However, when compared with each other, icorr values of the welded alloys decrease as a function of weld current increases. The corrosion rate was predominantly influenced by the distribution of intermetallic and alloying elements, and RSW weld varied, which was in response to altering the joint microstructure. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG part of Springer Nature.
