Commercially pure aluminum and aluminum blended with 50vol.% and 75vol.% of the intermetallic Mg17Al12compound feedstock powders were successfully deposited onto as cast AZ91D magnesium substrate using a cold spray process that was employed at low working gas pressure and temperature. The microstructure, mechanical performance and corrosion resistance properties of the Al coatings with and without reinforcement particles were investigated and discussed. The results show that under the same deposition conditions, the coating porosity level can be significantly decreased by adding hard particles into the pure aluminum feedstock. Although, only a small fraction (less than 10vol.%) of the Mg17Al12particles was retained in the coatings, the hardness, was increased from 47±5HV0.1to 58±3HV0.1, while the bonding strength was 2 to 3 times higher than the pure Al coating. The spherical Mg17Al12particles play a role similar to that of the hard ceramic reinforcement particles in the metal matrix composite (MMC) coatings. Electrochemical corrosion experiments also demonstrated that the composite coatings have similar electrochemical characteristics to the bulk Al, and they can provide suitable protection for the as cast AZ91D magnesium material.
