Monolithic conversion of AZ31 Mg alloy plates to struvite in saturated ammonium dihydrogen phosphate solutions by Erdem Şahin, Meltem Alp, Ahmed Şeref

“…Close examination of the cross section by SEM revealed formation of mainly prismatic crystals of struvite perpendicular to the rolling direction of the plates, thus intercalating and simultaneously densifying the microstructure. However such long term struvite growth could not be sustained in any of the studied multicomponent solutions of ADP, which highlights the unique pH evolution of saturated ADP solution that is suitable for continuous struvite formation. …”
