Abstract
In this research, the role of B4C-reinforcing particles on the corrosion behaviour of Al5083/B4C nanocomposite has been investigated. Al/B4C nanocomposite powder with weight percentages of 3 and 7 of reinforcing phase was prepared by mechanical milling method. The resulting powder was initially hot-pressed and then hot-extruded. The microstructure of the sample was studied using scanning electron microscopy and their corrosion behaviour was studied using potentiodynamic polarization and scanning electrochemical impedance spectroscopy methods in different immersion time intervals. The results showed a uniform distribution of reinforcing particles and also the scattering of intermetallic particles at the surface of the samples. However, increasing the content of B4C particles in the composite samples enhances the cathodic and anodic reactions by increasing the content of intermetallic particles as cathodic sites on the surface, so that higher corrosion current density is observed in the composite samples with 7 wt% B4C. Finally, it was concluded that increasing the value of B4C decreases the corrosion resistance of the B4C-reinforced composite samples in sodium chloride solution, which makes it unsuitable in marine applications.
期刊介绍:
The Bulletin of Materials Science is a bi-monthly journal being published by the Indian Academy of Sciences in collaboration with the Materials Research Society of India and the Indian National Science Academy. The journal publishes original research articles, review articles and rapid communications in all areas of materials science. The journal also publishes from time to time important Conference Symposia/ Proceedings which are of interest to materials scientists. It has an International Advisory Editorial Board and an Editorial Committee. The Bulletin accords high importance to the quality of articles published and to keep at a minimum the processing time of papers submitted for publication.
