Corrosion of Aluminum and Aluminum Alloys
Chapter 4: Intergranular and Exfoliation Corrosion
-
Published:1999
Abstract
This chapter describes the mechanisms, characteristics, and prevention of intergranular and exfoliation corrosion in various aluminum alloys. It discusses susceptible alloys and recommended tempers and presents several examples of exfoliation in aircraft components. It also explains how the two forms of corrosion are related to stress-corrosion cracking.
