| Popis: | Among the various types of recently released composite materials, particle-reinforced metal matrix composites (MMCs), in particular aluminum as the matrix material, have been shown to provide substantial industrial benefits in the automotive and aerospace sectors. The current research focused on the corrosion behavior of an Al7075 hybrid composite in 0.1 M hydrochloric acid (HCl) and 3.5% NaCl media at different temperatures. Electrochemical techniques, such as Tafel polarization (TP) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), were employed to study the corrosion behavior in the respective solutions. The results showed that the corrosion rate of the studied specimen increased from 31.77 to 47.61 mmy−1 in 0.1 M HCl and from 0.26 to 1.28 mmy−1 in 3.5% NaCl with increasing temperature. The corrosion current density of the Al7075 hybrid composite in 0.1 M HCl is on the order of 10−3 Acm2, and that in 3.5% NaCl is on the order of 10−5 Acm2. This confirms the increased rate of composite corrosion in the 0.1 M HCl medium compared to that in the 3.5% NaCl medium. A suitable mechanism was proposed for the corrosion of the Al7075 hybrid composite in both media. |
