The potential and advantages of Sn and RuO2 as hybrid activators in Al-Zn-Mg alloys will be studied by using direct (DC) and alternating (AC) current electrochemical measurement techniques. The morphology of the alloys' corroded surface was studied using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). This study showed that the addition of 1.5%wt. Sn as an alloying element gave a stable corrosion free process that can be achieved after 2 ks of immersion. The results also showed that RuO2 catalytic coating applied on the surface of Al-Zn-Mg-Sn alloy slightly shifted the values of open circuit potential (OCP) towards a more electropositive direction as compared to Al-Zn-Mg-Sn without RuO2. The morphology of the corroded surface of Al-Zn-Mg-Sn alloy coated with RuO2 showed a more uniform corrosion attack with the formation of porous and fibrous mud-like cracks on the outer layer. This type of corrosion morphology features were believed to facilitate ionic species adsorption and diffusion through corrosion product layer at solution-alloy interface. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) showed that both Sn and RuO2 are capable to activate Al-Zn-Mg-Sn alloy in sea water by modifying the electrical properties of the oxide layer, reducing resistance to polarisation Rp values and thus, activating and accelerating the aluminium alloy dissolution process. 2014-04-28T14:14:04Z 2014-04-28T14:14:04Z 2013 Defence S and T Technical Bulletin, vol. 6(2), 2013, pages 75-92 1985-6571 http://www.myjurnal.my/public/article-view.php?id=74570 http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/34119 Malaysian Citation Centre & Ministry of Education |
