Description
Summary:AA6060 aluminum is an alloy widely used in the electrical and marine industries. However, its corrosion resistance can be compromised in certain aggressive environments. This study examines the combined effect of magnetic field and imposed potential on the corrosion of AA6060 aluminum wire in seawater. Electrochemical tests and surface analyses were carried out in free immersion, in the presence of a magnetic field, under an imposed potential, and in the simultaneous presence of a magnetic field and an imposed potential. The corrosion kinetics and the mechanisms involved were analyzed by mass loss measurements and microscopic observations.
