Corrosion Behaviour of Heat-Treated Aluminum-Magnesium Alloy in Chloride and EXCO Environments

Figure 4

Effect of magnesium addition on the corrosion resistance of aluminum alloy in FeCl3 solution. Note: RRAg and AS-CASTg curves indicate the corrosion responses of heat-treated and as-cast Al-Mg alloy specimens, respectively, in ferric chloride solution as evaluated through the gravimetric technique while RRAe and AS-CASTe curves illustrate the corrosion behaviors of heat-treated and as-cast Al-Mg alloy specimens, respectively, in ferric chloride solution as evaluated through the electrochemical polarization technique.
