Potentiodynamic Polarization Studies of AN A1-Mg-Li Alloy.
Abstract
Potentiodynamic polarization tests were compared for an Al-Mg-Li alloy and a 7000 series alloy (7050). Tests were performed in various concentrations of sodium chloride, sodium sulfate and sodium nitrate solutions as functions of scan rate, pH, temperature, and degree of aeration. The lithium containing alloy exhibited significantly more active corrosion potentials in neutral and acidic solutions while the pitting potentials were essentially the same for the two alloys.
