摘要
Aluminium alloy(AA) 2024 is an important engineering material due to its widespread use in the aerospace industry. However, it is very prone to corrosion attack in chloride containing media. In the present investigation, AA2024 aluminium alloy rolled plates of 5 mm in thickness were friction stir welded. Corrosion performances of the specimens were evaluated by conducting salt fog tests in Na Cl solution at different p H values, chloride ion concentrations and spraying time. In addition, an empirical relationship was established to predict the corrosion rate of friction stir welds of AA2024 aluminium alloy. A central composite rotatable design including three factors and five levels was used to minimize the number of experiments. Response surface methodology(RSM) was used to develop the relationship. The corrosion rate decreased under neutral p H conditions. The corrosion rate increased in acidic and basic conditions. It was also found that the corrosion rate decreased with the increase of spraying time, but the corrosion tended to be uniform with the increment of time and with the increase in the chloride ion concentration, and the corrosion rate increased in the salt spray corrosion test.
2024铝合金是一种重要的工程材料,被大量应用于航空工业。但是在含氯介质中,2024铝合金易于腐蚀。本研究对5 mm厚AA2024铝合金轧板进行摩擦搅拌焊接。通过Na Cl溶液盐雾腐蚀试验对试样在不同p H值、氯离子浓度和喷雾时间条件下的腐蚀性能进行评价。建立一个经验关系式对摩擦搅拌焊AA2024铝合金的腐蚀速率进行预测。采用含有3因素5水平的中心复合旋转设计以减少实验次数。采用响应曲面法研究实验参数间的关联关系。在中性p H条件下,腐蚀速率降低;而在碱性和酸性条件下,腐蚀速率增加。随着喷雾时间的增加,腐蚀速率降低,但腐蚀趋于均匀,而随着氯离子浓度的增加,腐蚀速率增加。
