The aerospace industry mostly uses the aluminum alloys 2xxx and 7xxx series for their fuselage construction, some of them are assembled using structural bonding because it is strong, easy during fabrication process, resistant to corrosion, non-toxic. anodization process a proven surface treatment method bonding. Phosphoric Sulfuric Acid Anodizing (PSA) an eco-friendly alternative as chromate-fr...

Electrochemical deposition of silicon at room temperature is problematic due to the intrinsically low conductivity deposits. This study reports photoelectrochemical (PEC) (Si) and silicon–carbon (Si–C) layers from an ionic liquid 40 °C using tetrachloride (SiCl4) as a precursor. Amorphous are deposited on p-type (p-Si), gallium arsenide (p-GaAs), aluminum–copper alloy AA2024. The semiconductor ...

Abstract Fillet welds made by the corner stationary-shoulder friction stir welding process between AA7050-T7451 and AA2024-T4 sheets were characterized using different metallographic techniques mechanical testing. Robotic of an aircraft’s skin-to-internal stiffeners examined Barker’s electrolytic Keller’s etching correlated with electron backscattered diffraction results energy-dispersive micro...

Liquid-phase transmission electron microscopy (LP-TEM) has provided corrosion scientists with a unique opportunity to directly correlate nanoscopic morphological and compositional evolutions the corresponding electrochemical response of corroding thin TEM specimens. Electrochemical liquid cell designs are key components LP-TEM study towards an implementation which is representative for realisti...
