The evolution of the overall microstructure and contribution of constituent second phase
particles during the accelerated corrosion of AA 7075-T651 warrants further scrutiny. A …

This work reports a morphological, mechanical, and corrosion resistance characterization of
WC-12Co and WC-25Co coatings deposited by cold gas spray (CGS) onto AA 7075-T6 …

The effects of mechanical and chemical pre-treatments of AA7075-T6 and AA2024-T3
aluminium alloys were studied in terms of changes of morphology, composition and …

An aluminum alloy 1050 was treated by zirconium-based conversion coatings at different
pHs, immersion times, temperatures and Zr concentrations. Corrosion resistance and …

Aluminium alloys have highly heterogeneous microstructures compared to many other metal
alloys. This heterogeneity originates from alloy additions and impurities which combine to …

The present work investigates the corrosion behaviour of machined AA7150-T651
aluminium alloy. It is found that machining operation introduces a near-surface deformed …

After mechanical grinding, a near-surface deformed layer (NSDL) was observed on the
surface of AA6082-T6 bulk alloy (BA), which exhibits a bi-layered structure. The outer layer …
