In recent years, much progress has been made on the development of aerospace materials
for structural and engine applications. Alloys, such as Al-based alloys, Mg-based alloys, Ti …

The 5xxx series (Al-Mg-based) aluminum alloys suffer from intergranular corrosion and
intergranular stress corrosion cracking when the alloy has become “sensitized.” …

Intergranular corrosion (IGC) of sensitized AA5083 was investigated in 0.6 M NaCl solution.
Corrosion of a finite fraction of the anodically active β-phase (Al3Mg2) precipitates triggers …

The effects of the alloying elements Zn on the mechanical properties, intergranular corrosion
behavior and microstructure of Al–Mg alloys have been examined. The type, morphology …

Intergranular corrosion (IGC) of Al-Mg alloys in aqueous solutions is reviewed. Al-Mg alloys
containing more than 3 wt% Mg can form β phase (Al3Mg2) that will precipitate via …

The stress corrosion cracking susceptibility of traditional Al–Mg alloys modified by Zn was
studied by using slow strain rate test both in the air and in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution acidified …

The fine-scale microstructure of an Al 5083 alloy sensitized at 373 K (100° C) for 3, 7, 14, 30,
45, and 90 days has been investigated using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to …

Al–Mg alloys are commonly employed for anti-corrosion parts in marine and rail vehicles.
However, the corrosion resistance of these alloys is affected by the alloy microstructure. In …

To overcome the trade-off between strength and corrosion resistance of traditional 5xxx
aluminum alloys, in this paper, we investigate the evolution of microstructure, mechanical …

mm-thick 5083Al-H19 rolled plates were friction stir welded (FSW) at tool rotation rates of
800 and 200 rpm with and without additional water cooling. With decreasing the rotation rate …
