## Abstract The corrosion behaviour of magnesium alloys is not substantially comparable to other metals, such as iron, nickel and copper. It is always accompanied by hydrogen evolution. More hydrogen is evolved at a more positive potential or a higher anodic current density. The ‘strange’ hydrogen

Abstract
In sodium chloride solutions alloy composition, phases, microstructure and grain size influence the corrosion behaviour of magnesium alloys. Concentration and distribution of the critical impurities iron, nickel and copper affect the corrosion performance strongly.
Salt spray tests according to ASTM B 117 or DIN 50021 are used to control quality of magnesium alloys. Results of these tests often estimate alloy subcontractors and are therefore very important to placing.
Standards specify test solution, test temperature and position of specimens during test in the salt spray chamber. Standards not prescribe preparation of test specimens, exposure period, handling of the specimens after salt spray test nor the interpretation of the results. Results of salt spray tests can be only compared, provided that test conditions are exactly given. Whether the standards fulfil the above described criteria, will be shown by extensive investigations. Therefore the influence of exposure period, surface condition and microstructure was investigated.

## Abstract In recent years, magnesium alloys have been proposed as a new class of metallic bioabsorbable implant material. Unfortunately, the production of hydrogen gas and an increase in alkalinity are both by‐products of the degradation process of these materials. This necessitates the developme
The influence of NaCl and CO 2 on the atmospheric corrosion of magnesium alloy AZ91 is studied in the laboratory. Samples were exposed under carefully controlled air and flow conditions; the relative humidity was 95%, the temperature was 22.0 8C and the concentration of CO 2 was < 1 ppm or 350 ppm.
