A Summary of Corrosion Properties of Al-Rich Solid Solution and Secondary Phase Particles in Al Alloys

The heterogeneous structure of Al alloys renders them susceptible to localized corrosion due to the different electrochemical properties existing in the Al-rich solid solution matrix and secondary phase particles. The galvanic interactions between these two phases can result in pit formation either...
