[ 1 ] - NANO- SCALE LOCALIZED CORROSION STUDIES OFEN AW- 3003ALALLOYBYSEM-EDS, SKPFM AND IN-SITU AFM

Abstract: Localized corrosion of aluminum alloys is often triggered by intermetallic particles, IMP’s. To understandthe role of IMP’s in corrosion initiation of EN AW-3003, efforts were made to combine nano-scale ex-situ analysis ofthe IMP’s by SEM-EDS, SKPFM and in-situ AFM monitoring of the localized attack in chloride containing solution.The results showed that two distinct types of eutectic...
