Abstract:Titanium alloy plays a crucial role in the electrochemical field due to its excellent corrosion resistance. The passivation and dissolution behaviors of Ti-6.5Al-2Zr-1Mo-1V (TA15) alloy in NaCl solution were studied by simulating the electrochemical machining process in a rotating condition, which made the anode in a state with alternating high and low current density. Electron probe micro analysis, ultra-depth microscope, scanning electron microscope, and X-ray photoelectron spectrometer were used to reveal the evolution of TA15 under fluctuating current density. The existence state of the passivation film on TA15 surface was closely related to the pulse frequency of the periodically fluctuating current density. At higher pulse frequency of 0.20 Hz, the material was hardly dissolved because passivation dominated the electrolysis behavior, while at lower pulse frequency of 0.01 Hz, the passivation and dissolution behaviors occurred alternately with the variation of the current density. Herein, the thickness of the passivation film was inversely proportional to the applied current density. Due to the different electrochemical characteristics of α phase and β phase, the surface of the TA15 changed from being smooth to porous after a period. In addition, the change of microstructure affected the content of O2- and exposed the suboxides of titanium. In a word, the change of pulse frequency and current density affected the electrochemical behavior of TA15, which was different from the conventional steady condition.
