Corrosion of Aluminum Alloy Metal Matrix Composites in Neutral Chloride Solutions
The electrochemical behavior of UNS A0332.00S, UNS A0332.20S, UNS A0359.00S, and UNS A0359.20S aluminum alloys were studied in NaCl media through weight loss, potentiodynamic, and cyclic polarization techniques. UNS A0332.20S and UNS A0359.20S were reinforced with SiC, 20% by volume while the other two samples were not reinforced. Scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy...
