摘要
Observations made during the corrosion of cast aluminum alloys dispersed with graphite/silicon carbide (SiC) particles were analyzed. Corrosion studies were carried out in 3 wt% sodium chloride (NaCl) solution using salt immersion and potentiodynamic techniques. Corresponding base alloys were subjected to identical test conditions to understand the influence of the dispersoid on corrosion behavior. In all cases, the composites exhibited higher corrosion loss over the respective matrix alloy. Weight loss increased with exposure time. The dispersoid/matrix and the precipitate/matrix interfaces were found to be favorable sites for nucleation of corrosion pits. Results were explained with the help of microstructural observations and electrochemical parameters.
