Corrosion characterization of aluminium-6013 / red mud MMCs

Metal matrix composites are heterogeneous systems containing matrix and reinforcement. Their physical and mechanical properties can be tailored according to the requirement. Because of their increased corrosion resistance, they are used in automobile, aircraft and marine industries. In this research work static weight loss corrosion, open circuit potential, potentiodynamic polarization, stress corrosion and salt spray tests are conducted on aluminium 6013 / red mud metal matrix composites in di ...
