Localised corrosion of 2124SiCp composite

Abstract

Influence of alternate immersion in Sodium chloride solution, exposure to salt spray, EXCO test (ASTM-G34), Electrochemical test and marine exposure on 2124 aluminium alloy composite plates reinforced with 10 vol.% SiC particulate and the 2124 base alloy, were studied, and also the localised corrosion like pitting and exfoliation behaviours were reported in this paper
