On the quantitative assessment of corrosion damages of aluminum at the early stages using confocal laser scanning microscopy
Despite being widely used in such industries as chemical, aviation and food ones, aluminum and its alloys are known to be prone to localized corrosion, and this remains a problem to be solved, especially when it comes to pitting corrosion. Therefore, there is a necessity to detect traces of corrosion at the earliest stages and to quantify the extent of corrosion damage. The simplest solution for assessing the overall corrosion rate is to use the gravimetric method, which, however, does not provide information for assessment of localized corrosion. This paper is devoted to the consideration of the possibilities of using the method of confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) for assessing corrosion resistance using high-purity aluminum. The CLSM method, due to its high resolution (especially along the vertical axis), enables to obtain quantitative data on the volume of corroded metal, determine the depth of corrosion damage including building their profilograms, and analyze the morphology of the surface damaged by corrosion. Owing to the high sensitivity of the CLSM method, corrosion losses were detected within 21 days, contrary to the standard gravimetric method, which failed to determine the loss of metal even after 160 days of corrosion testing.
期刊介绍:
The aim of "Letters on materials" is to provide a fast publication of short research and review articles on various topics in materials science and related areas of material physics and mechanics. The editorial board sees it''s own task in rapid informing of the readers on the state-of-the-art challenges and achievements in materials science. The editorial board does its best to select high quality papers reporting new scientific results that are of interest for researchers in materials science, physics, and mechanics. "Letters on materials" invites Russian and foreign researches to publish papers in both the Russian and English languages. The scope of the journal covers the following research areas: structure analysis of materials, mechanical and physical properties of materials, production and processing of materials, experimental methods of investigation of materials, theory and computational methods in solid state physics. "Letters on materials" is designed for researchers, engineers, lecturers, and students working in the areas of materials science, mechanical engineering, metal forming, physics, and material mechanics.
