Electrochemical analysis of SiC composite additions at 7.5% weight content on the corrosion resistance of monolithic aluminium alloy in sulphate-chloride solution
Effect of specific SiC particle sizes on the corrosion resistance and metastable pitting behaviour of AA1060 aluminium at 7.5% SiC weight content in 0.05 M H2SO4, 0.3 M NaCl and 0.05 M H2SO4/0.3 M NaCl solution was studied with potentiodynamic polarization, open circuit potential measurement and optical microscopy. SiC slightly increased the susceptibility of aluminium matrix composite...
