Abstract

Rotating bending fatigue tests were carried out by using the 7075-T7351 Al alloy with a microarc oxidation (MAO) coating (h = 10 μm) and with no coating. Tests were conducted in air and 5.0% NaCl aqueous solution conditions. The fatigue microscopic fracture behavior of the metals was investigated by using scanning electron microscope and three-dimensional digital microscope technologies. The empirical formulas between the stress intensity factor ΔK and the fatigue life Nf in the different conditions were obtained. In addition, the reason for data scattering in the fatigue lives of uncoated 7075-T7351 samples under the same stress amplitude in air was analyzed. Furthermore, the fatigue characteristic life of 7075-T7351 alloy was predicted by the three-parameter Weibull distribution model.
