    Electrochemical characterization of alloy segregation in the near-surface deformed layer of welded zones of an Al-Cu-Li alloy using scanning electrochemical microscopy
    2022 - SILVA, REJANE M.P. da; IZQUIERDO, JAVIER; MILAGRE, MARIANA X.; ARAUJO, JOAO V. de S.; ANTUNES, RENATO A.; SOUTO, RICARDO M.; COSTA, ISOLDA
    The development of heterogeneous electrochemical activity in the welded zones of aluminum alloy 2098-T351 by friction stir welding (FSW) associated with the formation of a near-surface deformed layer (NSDL) upon exposure to an aqueous chloride-containing solution was characterized using scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) in potentiometric operation. A solid-contact Mg2+ ion-selective microelectrode allowed in situ monitoring of the corrosion reactions sites for magnesium dissolution from different zones of the FSW weld upon exposure to a chloride-containing aqueous environment. In this way, localized corrosion reactions developing in the galvanically coupled joint/heat affected zones (WJ/HAZ) of the weld were detected and imaged with spatial resolution. The most active domains for local Mg2+ concentrations were associated with the HAZ of the retreating side (RS), and these corresponded to Mg oxidation from the Mg-enriched oxide bands in NSDL.

    Development of an Al3+ ion-selective microelectrode for the potentiometric microelectrochemical monitoring of corrosion sites on 2098-T351 aluminum alloy surfaces
    2022 - SILVA, REJANE M.P. da; IZQUIERDO, JAVIER; MILAGRE, MARIANA X.; ANTUNES, RENATO A.; SOUTO, RICARDO M.; COSTA, ISOLDA
    A novel potentiometric Al3+−ion selective microelectrode (ISME), with internal solid contact, based on the use of a neutral carrier morin as ionophore is reported. The ability of the ISME to image local ion concentration distributions was tested on aluminum alloy surfaces freely corroding in an aqueous solution containing chloride ions. The microelectrode was then used as the sensing tip for scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) in potentiometric operation to monitor the reactive sites associated with the dissolution of aluminum that developed in the 2098−T351 Al−Cu−Li alloy as a result of welding by the Friction Stir Welding (FSW) process. The ISME detected differences in the local concentrations of Al3+ species arising from the 2098−T351 Al−Cu−Li alloy (base material) and from the coupled weld joint/heat affected zones (WJ/HAZ) of the alloy produced by the FSW process. More active domains for Al3+ dissolution were found in the HAZ regions coupled to WJ, more specially in the HAZ of the advancing side (AS). These results demonstrate that the Al3+−ISME presented in this work can be used to monitor corrosion sites on aluminum alloys surfaces with combined chemical and spatial resolution.

    On the local corrosion behavior of coupled welded zones of the 2098-T351 Al-Cu-Li alloy produced by Friction Stir Welding (FSW)
    2021 - SILVA, REJANE M.P. da; IZQUIERDO, JAVIER; MILAGRE, MARIANA X.; BETANCOR-ABREU, ABENCHARA M.; OLIVEIRA, LEANDRO A. de; ANTUNES, RENATO A.; SOUTO, RICARDO M.; COSTA, ISOLDA
    Localized electrochemical methods supported by surface analytical characterizations were employed to investigate galvanic coupling effects and local electrochemical activity developed along the welded zones in Friction Stir Welded 2098-T351 Al-Cu-Li alloy. The investigation was carried out in the coupled weld joint/heat affected zones (WJ/HAZ) for both, the retreating (RS) and the advancing (AS) sides. The correlation between the surface chemistry, the microstructural characteristics and the electrochemical activity of these welded areas was studied. The results showed the development of galvanic interactions within and between the WJ and HAZ regions, which were imaged using the scanning vibrating electrode technique (SVET), and scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM). SVET analyses showed that HAZ was more susceptible to the development of anodic sites than WJ. SECM in amperometric operation mode showed that WJ coupled to HAZ exhibited higher oxygen consumption and higher cathodic activity compared to HAZ. Furthermore, SECM in potentiometric operation showed alkalinization around WJ and increased acidity in HAZ, mainly at sites of severe localized corrosion (SLC). Based on the SVET and SECM results in combination with the surface analyses, it is proposed that the microgalvanic cells formed within these welded zones are due to the presence of secondary phases in the 2098-T351 alloy and their interactions with the adjacent matrix.
