Effects of Surface Oxide Coating on Corrosion Behavior of Ti-1023/LY12 Galvanic Couple
Abstract:
Galvanic corrosion behavior of Ti-1023 titanium alloy coupled to LY12 aluminum alloy was investigated in 3.5% NaCl solution. Particular attention was given to the effect of anodized coatings on corrosion behaviors of Ti-1023/LY12 galvanic couple. Galvanic test was conducted on the following couples: Ti-1023/LY12, Ti-1023/anodized LY12 and anodized Ti-1023/anodized LY12, respectively. Corrosion properties including open circuit potential (Eoc) of each material, galvanic corrosion potential (Eg) and galvanic corrosion current (Ig) of the couples were monitored. Corrosion morphology was observed by optical microscope (OM) and corrosion mechanisms were analyzed and discussed. It was showed that anodized coatings significantly decreased Eg and Īg of the couples and provide effective protection of the anode from suffering corrosion attack. Only slight localized corrosion was detected on anodized LY12 alloy in the two anodized couples and the LY12 in anodized Ti-1023/anodized LY12 couple was found to be least susceptible to galvanic corrosion. The LY12 alloy in the bare couple: Ti-1023/LY12, was found to be highly susceptible to galvanic corrosion and suffered severe uniform and localized corrosion attack
