Al-xFe-La alloys (x = 0.07, 0.1, 0.2) for aluminum current collectors of lithium-ion batteries were prepared and the microstructure of Al-0.07Fe-0.07La, Al-0.1Fe-0.07La and Al-0.2Fe-0.07La aluminum alloys were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The experimental results showed that with the increase of Fe content, the size of the second phases in Al-xFe-0.07La alloys became finer and more dispersed and that the microstructure of the alloy had improved. The strength and corrosion resistance of Al-xFe-La alloys were studied by tensile tests and electrochemical tests and the morphological investigations of samples were also conducted by SEM and EDS. With the increase of Fe content, the strength and corrosion resistance of Al-xFe-La alloys became better. Compared to Al-0.07Fe-0.07La alloy, the yield strength and tensile strength of the Al-0.2Fe-0.07La alloy increased by 51.19% and 58.48% respectively, and the elongation increased by 88.41%. Moreover, Al-0.2Fe-0.07La alloy had much more positive corrosion potential and much smaller corrosion current than those of Al-0.07Fe-0.07La alloy.

Application Requirements

Al–xFe–Si–La alloys (x = 0.07, 0.2, 0.4 wt. %) were designed as current collectors of positive electrodes in lithium ion batteries, and the microstructure, tensile strength, electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance of the alloys were investigated with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), a tensile test, an electrical conductivity test, and an electrochemical test. It was found that the amount of Fe content greatly affected the quantity of the second phases in the alloys. The higher the Fe content was, the more the second phases were. With increase of the Fe content, the tensile strength and corrosion resistance of the Al–xFe–Si–La alloys were improved, and the electrical conductivity of the Al–xFe–Si–La alloys could meet the application requirements. Compared to the Al–0.07Fe–0.1Si–0.07La alloy, the strength of the Al–0.4Fe–0.1Si–0.07La alloy was greatly enhanced. The Al–0.4Fe–0.1Si–0.07La alloy also had a higher corrosion potential than that of the Al–0.07Fe–0.1Si–0.07La alloy.

Abstract The effect of adding cerium on the microstructure and acid rain corrosion resistance of the AlSi11Cu3 alloy was investigated by means of optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive spectroscopy. The AlSi11Cu3 alloy was doped with varying stoichiometries of cerium to generate AlSi11Cu3-xCe, where x = 0, 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 wt.%. The results show that the α-Al, eutectic Si, and β-Al5FeSi phases in the AlSi11Cu3-1.0Ce alloy are significantly refined. Electrochemical tests demonstrated an increase in the self-corrosion potential value of the AlSi11Cu3-1.0Ce alloy from –670 mV to –628 mV relative to the untreated alloy. In addition, the AlSi11Cu3-1.0Ce alloy has the lowest corrosion current density (8.4 μA × cm–2). Immersion corrosion testing on the AlSi11Cu3-1.0Ce alloy revealed a corrosion rate of 0.71 mg × cm–2 × d–1, constituting a 72% reduction in the corrosion rate compared to the untreated alloy. These results indicate that the AlSi11Cu3-1.0Ce alloy has a high resistance to acid rain corrosion, which is the result of a refinement of the cathode phases.

Fluoride conversion (MgF2) coating with facile preparation and good adhesion is promising to protect Mg alloy, but defects of pores in the coating lead to limited corrosion resistance. In this study, a compact and dense MgF2 coating was prepared by the combination of fluoride treatment and ultrasonic treatment. The ultrasonically treated MgF2 coating showed a compact and dense structure without pores at the frequency of 28 kHz. The chemical compositions of the coating were mainly composed of F and Mg elements. The corrosion potential of the ultrasonically treated Mg alloy shifted towards the noble direction in the electrochemical tests. The corrosion current density decreased due to the protectiveness of MgF2 coating without defects of pores or cracks. During immersion tests for 24 h, the ultrasonically treated Mg alloy exhibited the lowest H2 evolution (0.32 mL/cm2) and pH value (7.3), which confirmed the enhanced anti-corrosion ability of MgF2 coating. Hence, the ultrasonically treated fluoride coating had great potentials for their use in anti-corrosion applications of Mg alloy.

6063 Al Alloy

To improve the corrosion resistance of Al alloy, diethylamine (DEA) was added into the sealing solutions. The electrochemical behavior of sealing coatings formed in different concentrations of diethylamine (DEA) was investigated by means of polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Compared with the coatings with D. I. water and the bare aluminum alloy, the polarization curves show that the sealing coatings formed in 3.0 – 5.0 ml.L-1 diethylamine (DEA) solutions have more positive corrosion potential (Ecorr) and pitting corrosion potential (Epit), and lower corrosion current density (icorr). Electrochemical parameters of EIS indicate that the sealing coatings have higher corrosion resistance. The electrochemical tests present that the prepared sealing coatings have better corrosion resistance.

The Impact

The effect of iron and yttrium additions on glass forming ability and corrosion resistance of Al88Y8-xFe4+x (x = 0, 1, 2 at.%) alloys in the form of ingots and melt-spun ribbons was investigated. The crystalline multiphase structure of ingots and amorphous-crystalline structure of ribbons were examined by a number of analytical techniques including X-ray diffraction, Mössbauer spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. It was confirmed that the higher Fe additions contributed to formation of amorphous structures. The impact of chemical composition and structure of alloys on their corrosion resistance was characterized by electrochemical tests in 3.5% NaCl solution at 25 °C. The identification of the mechanism of chemical reactions taking place during polarization test along with the morphology and internal structure of the surface oxide films generated was performed. It was revealed that the best corrosion resistance was achieved for the Al88Y7Fe5 alloy in the form of ribbon, which exhibited the lowest corrosion current density (jcorr = 0.09 μA/cm2) and the highest polarization resistance (Rp = 96.7 kΩ∙cm2).
