Effect of Partial Cladding Pattern of Aluminum 7075 T651 on Corrosion and Mechanical Properties

Figure 1

Schematic cross sections of the three medium sized test panels indicating the location (+) of corrosion products expected after corrosion testing. All test panels have visual exposed areas of 30 × 25 cm to salt spray. Alclad means full clad, while spot clad (partial clad) and unclad were machined to remove part or all of the clad layer.
