- Description
- This paper aims attention at characteristics of corrosion of reinforced primary and secondary processed Al6061 based composites along TiC particles. Using potassium hexaflourotitanate (K2TiF6) and potassium tetrafluoroborate (KB4) halide salts, the synthesis of composites was done utilizing in-situ technique using stir casting route at temperature 850 Celsius. Open die forging was subjected upon in-situ composites of cast aluminium alloy at a temperature 500C. Both microstructure studies and salt spray test were subjected upon to forged and cast alloy 6061 and its in-situ composites. In accordance to ASTM B117 standard test procedure, salt spray test was conducted utilizing 5% NaCl test solution. The results impart that, the alloy forged, and respective in-situ composites exhibited enhanced corrosion resistance comparatively. 2019 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
