Abstract

The invention provides a method for processing the surface of magnesium-lithium alloy. The technique of micro-arc oxidation is successfully applied to processing the surface of the magnesium-lithium alloy. Direct current / DC pulse / alternating current pulse multiplex power supply is used and the magnesium-lithium alloy with different lithium contents in a compound electrolyte system of sodium polyphosphate, sodium silicate, calgon and sodium hydroxide is carried out by micro-arc oxidation for 2-120min. A ceramic oxide film of 10-100Mum with a rigidity higher than 200Hv is formed in situ on the surface of the magnesium-lithium alloy, thus remarkably improving corrosion resistant property compared with an alloy matrix, solving the problem known at home and abroad concerning processing the surface of the magnesium-lithium alloy and broadening the application in the fields of aviation, aerospace, car, electronic, etc.

Description

(1) Technical field [0001] The invention relates to an alloy surface treatment method, in particular to a magnesium-lithium alloy surface treatment method. (2) Background technology [0002] Magnesium-lithium alloy is the lightest metal structure material, its density is only 2 / 3-3 / 4 of that of ordinary magnesium alloy, and 1 / 2-2 / 3 of that of aluminum alloy. While the alloy is lightweight, the magnesium-lithium alloy has high specific strength, specific stiffness, good plastic denaturation ability and electromagnetic shielding ability, and has broad application prospects in aviation, aerospace, automobiles and electronics. However, since the standard electrode potential of lithium is more negative than that of magnesium ( E L i + / Li O = - 3.05 ...
