Abstract: In this paper, Mg-11Gd-3Y-0.6Ca-0.5Zr alloy was taken as the research object, and solid solution and aging heat treatment are performed. Metallographic microscope, scanning electron microscope with energy spectrum, X-ray diffractometer were used to analyze the microstructure and phase of the alloy before and after heat treatment and corrosion, and the static weight loss method and electrochemical test method were used to study the corrosion resistance of the alloy before and after heat treatment. The results show that the as-cast microstructure of the alloy is composed of α-Mg matrix and the coarse eutectic phases Mg5Gd, Mg24Y5 and Mg2Ca, which are distributed along the grain. In 3.5wt% NaCl solution, heat treatment significantly improves the corrosion resistance of the alloy. Among them, the corrosion rate of the aging alloy is the lo-west, the self-corrosion potential is the highest, the corrosion current density is the lowest, and the corrosion resistance of the alloy is the best, followed by the solid solution state and the casting state. The corrosion products on the surface of the alloy are mainly Mg(OH)2.
