Unravelling the characteristics of Al-alloy corrosion at the atomic to nanometre scale by transmission electron microscopy

The localised corrosion associated with Mg2Si in the Al-matrix of an Al-Mg-Si alloy was studied in 0.1 M NaCl at pH 6 by quasi in-situ transmission electron microscopy. Herein, physical imaging of corrosion at the atomic to nanometre scale was performed. Phase transformation and subsequent chemical...
