Study of Corrosion Behavior of Mg–Gd-Based Soluble Magnesium Alloys by Qinghua Wang, Zhiquan Huang, Yanchun Zhu, Ling Qin, Jingfeng Zou, Lifeng Ma

“…Microstructural analysis revealed that the extrusion process disrupted the coarse, reticulated second-phase structure observed in the as-cast state, thereby diminishing its corrosion-inhibiting properties. Electrochemical testing further confirmed that the Mg₅Gd second phase, formed through the incorporation of the rare-earth element Gd, exhibited high electrochemical activity.…”
