    Study Notes

    Corrosion Control

    Types of Corrosion

    • Rivet "smoking" is an indication of fretting corrosion.
    • Filiform corrosion is usually caused by an improperly cured wash primer.
    • Magnesium is particularly vulnerable to corrosive attack from salt solutions.
    • Intergranular corrosion forms along the grain boundaries within an aluminum alloy.
    • Galvanic corrosion occurs when two dissimilar metals are joined in a structure.

    Corrosion Formation Requirements

    • Presence of a metal that will corrode (anode).
    • Presence of a dissimilar conductive metal (cathode) with less tendency to corrode.
    • Presence of a conductive liquid electrolyte.
    • Electrical contact between the anode and cathode (usually metal to metal contact).

    Electrochemical Reactions

    • In an electrochemical reaction, the anode is eaten away.
    • The basic unit of a chemical element is the atom, made up of a nucleus containing protons and neutrons, surrounded by spinning electrons.
    • Protons carry a positive electrical charge, neutrons carry no charge, and electrons carry a negative electrical charge.

    Corrosion Prevention and Treatment

    • Aluminum alloys are protected from oxidation by the formation of an aluminum oxide film on its surface.
    • Delaying surface quenching during heat treatment can cause intergranular corrosion of aluminum alloys.
    • Shot-peen metal treatment is used to help prevent stress corrosion.
    • Stress corrosion may occur when the metal is subjected to tensile stress in the presence of a corrosive environment.

    Cleaning and Chemicals

    • Stubborn exhaust stains may be removed with a 1:2 mixture of varsol and kerosene.
    • Use of non-recommended cleaning compounds can result in hydrogen embrittlement.
    • Aliphatic and aromatic are the two most common types of naphtha.

    Corrosion Types and Characteristics

    • Oxidation corrosion forms when a metal like aluminum is exposed to a containing oxygen.
    • Metallic ion concentration cell corrosion forms in open areas.
    • Filiform corrosion is usually caused by an improperly cured wash primer.
