The Influence of Temperature on the Galvanic Corrosion in Multi-Material System in Seawater

Article Preview

Abstract:

The galvanic corrosion behavior of titanium (TA2)/Cu-Ni alloy (B10)/low alloy steel (921A) multi-material system has been studied using a zero-resistance ammeter (ZRA) in seawater at different temperatures. After the tests, the surface morphologies of the samples were detected by SEM. Results showed galvanic corrosion behavior of TA2/B10/921A fulfill the mixed potential theory, 921A acts as the anode and both TA2 and B10 act as the cathodes. The effect of temperature on the galvanic corrosion is important, the corrosion rate increases with increasing temperature.
