AbstractAbstract
[en] This work on the compatibility of magnesium alloys with pressurized carbon dioxide has been carried out along three lines: - testing of special alloys containing additions of zirconium, manganese, cerium, zinc, beryllium and yttrium. The results are satisfactory, generally speaking, and the corrosion kinetics are often comparable to those of conventional magnesium-zirconium alloy; - influence of the quality of the carbon dioxide, in particular the presence of water vapour or of carbon monoxide in this gas. It appears that oxidation is reduced if the carbon dioxide contains traces of water vapour, but is more pronounced if carbon monoxide is also present; - study of certain phenomena related to corrosion: size changes in the samples during tests, structural modifications in the alloys (grain-size changes, formation of a cortical zone in the case of alloys containing zirconium). The influence of thermal cycling has also been studied in a few specific tests. The results obtained make it possible to compare the behaviour of various alloys under varying conditions of long-term use, and to choose, if required, the best composition for a given application.

Ce travail sur la compatibilite des alliages de magnesium avec le gaz carbonique sous pression a ete particulierement oriente dans trois directions: - epreuve, d'alliages speciaux comportant des additions de zirconium, manganese, cerium, zinc, beryllium et yttrium. Les resultats sont generalement satisfaisants et les cinetiques de corrosion souvent comparables a celles de l'alliage magnesium-zirconium classique; - influence de la qualite du gaz carbonique, et notamment de la presence de vapeur d'eau ou d'oxyde de carbone dans ce gaz. Il est apparu que l'oxydation est reduite si le gaz carbonique contient des traces d'eau, mais accrue si l'oxyde de carbone est egalement present; - etude de certains phenomenes lies a la corrosion: variations dimensionnelles des echantillons au cours des essais, modifications structurales des alliages (evolution de la taille du grain, formation d'une zone corticale dans le cas des alliages contenant du zirconium). En outre, l'influence des cycles thermiques a ete examinee au cours de quelques essais specifiques. L'ensemble des resultats permet de comparer les comportements des divers alliages dans diverses conditions de service a long terme, et eventuellement de choisir la meilleure formule pour une application donnee.
