Abstract

Magnesium alloys of AZ31 containing (0.5, 1, 1.5) wt.% of initially added CaO particles were cast in air, and their oxidation behavior was studied at $450-650^{\circ}C$ in air. The initially added CaO particles either decomposed to dissolve in the ${\alpha}$-Mg matrix or precipitated as $Al_2Ca$ along the grain boundaries of the matrix during casting. The ignition temperatures were $565.4^{\circ}C$ for AZ31, $608.6^{\circ}C$ for AZ31+0.5 wt.%CaO, and $689.7^{\circ}C$ for AZ31+1 wt.%CaO. No ignition occurred for AZ31+1.5 wt.%CaO up to $700^{\circ}C$, displaying good oxidation resistance. The CaO-rich oxide scales that formed on the surface of the AZ31+(0.5, 1, 1.5) wt.%CaO alloys improved the oxidation resistance of AZ31 alloys.
