5000 Series of Aluminum and Its Alloys Opaque by Inhibitors
Abstract: 5XXX series of alloys are prepared for marine applications. Light weight, strength, low maintenance and inherent tendency to form passivity surfacing have selected these alloys for manufacture of cargo ships. Anti corrosive paints have been traditional protections in these alloys. Workers exposed to chromate residues during sanding of aircraft and recoating have increased risk of cancer to 250,000-fold higher. These paints are hazardous for aquatic life, so eco-friendly corrosion inhibitors …

Corrosion behavior of Friction stir welded aluminum alloys: A review
Abstract: A review on corrosion behavior of Friction Stir Welded aluminum alloys has been presented. Objective of the work is to discuss the behavior of Friction Stir Welded aluminum alloys under chloride environment. The variation of corrosion potential and corrosion rate for the welded portion and base metal and within the welded region for various zones like weld nugget, HAZ and TMAZ has been studied. Alloys of series 2XXX, 5XXX, 6XXX …
