In the present work the effect of non-isothermal heat treatments on the microstructure and corrosion resistance of a hypoeutectic Al-Si-Cu die-cast alloy was studied. The microstructural aspects were examined by confocal laser scanning microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The corrosion behavior was studied by potentiodynamic polarization tests. In the as-cast condition, the microstructure consisted of needle-like Si particles and Fe-rich intermetallics, besides the Al matrix. The non-isothermal treatments promoted spheroidization of Si particles, decreasing its volume fraction. The corrosion resistance was affected by concentration of the Si particles. The corrosion mechanism is discussed based on the microstructural evolution of the Al-Si-Cu alloy. The main influencing factor was the volume fraction of Si particles. The non-isothermally treated samples exhibited lower corrosion current density than the as-cast alloy, showing superior corrosion resistance. |
