    2022 - KLUMPP, RAFAEL E.; ARAUJO, JOAO V. de S.; ANTUNES, RENATO A.; VIVEIROS, BARBARA V.G. de; MAGNANI, MARINA; COSTA, ISOLDA
    Aluminum alloys are the state-of-art materials for structural components of aircrafts. As they are susceptible to localized corrosion, this kind of damage can become a major threat for its safe use in aircraft components. Therefore, surface protection of aluminum alloys against corrosion is a core issue in these applications. In this work, an alternative eco-friendly cerium-based surface pretreatment was developed and applied on the AA1230 clad of the AA2024-T3 alloy for corrosion protection. The corrosion resistance evaluation of this modified surface was evaluated by several techniques. The results were compared to chromium based conventional treatments and revealed that the coating layer, composed of spherical nodular nanostructures of cerium, obtained with the proposed eco-friendly treatment, improved the corrosion resistance of the alloy. Moreover, it was comparable to the corrosion behavior of chromate-treated alloy, showing that this treatment is a promising alternative to replace chromate based surface treatments.

    O processo de anodização do alumínio e suas ligas
    2021 - ARAUJO, JOAO V. de S.; SILVA, REJANE M.P. da; KLUMPP, RAFAEL E.; COSTA, ISOLDA
    Al and its alloys are found in several industrial applications. However, like most metals, this material is not immune to corrosion, being necessary to be protected against corrosion. One of the methods most commonly employed to improve the corrosion resistance of Al alloys is the anodizing process, which consists of thickening of the natural oxide (Al2O3) presents in Al through anodic oxidation. The anodizing process is accomplished by immersion of the Al alloy into an acid bath and passing an electric current through it. This process produces two layers: a barrier layer thicker than the natural oxide and a layer with regular arrangement of nanopores (porous layer). This duplex structure forms the anodized layer with a large specific surface area. With the advent of nanotechnology, this layer has been applied in other areas due to its low cost, stability, absence of toxicity, and biocompatibility. In this context, this paper addresses a historical and electrochemical review of the anodizing process of Al and its alloys, presenting the main events that culminated in the development of the current processes and the understanding of the relationship between the chemical reactions and the mechanisms that occur during nucleation and development of the oxide layer.

    Corrosion protection of the AA2198-T8 alloy by environmentally friendly organic-inorganic sol-gel coating based on bis-1,2-(triethoxysilyl) ethane
    2021 - KLUMPP, RAFAEL E.; DONATUS, UYIME; SILVA, REJANE M.P. da; ANTUNES, RENATO A.; MACHADO, CARULINE de S.C.; MILAGRE, MARIANA X.; ARAUJO, JOAO V. de S.; VIVEIROS, BARBARA V.G. de; COSTA, ISOLDA
    In this work, a surface coating composed of organic‐inorganic hybrid sol‐gel based on bis‐1,2‐(triethoxysilyl) (BTSE) ethane was applied on AA2198‐T8 samples, and its effect on corrosion resistance was investigated and compared with that of a chromate layer formed in a solution with hexavalent chromium ions. The corrosion resistance of BTSE coated samples was evaluated by immersion tests in sodium chloride solution (0.005 mol/L NaCl) and monitored by global electrochemical techniques such as electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and local electrochemical techniques such as scanning vibrating electrode technique (SVET) and scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM). The formed coating layers were characterized by X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results pointed out that the BTSE is an effective alternative coating for corrosion protection of new generation Al‐Cu‐Li alloys and could replace chromates obtained in toxic and carcinogenic CrVI containing solutions leading to improved corrosion protection.

    The effect of acid pickling on the corrosion behavior of a cerium conversion-coated AA2198-T851 Al-Cu-Li alloy
    2020 - KLUMPP, RAFAEL E.; DONATUS, UYIME; ARAUJO, JOAO V.S.; REDÍGOLO, MARCELO M.; MACHADO, CARULINE de S.C.; COSTA, ISOLDA
    The effect of acid pickling pretreatments prior to cerium conversion coating process on the corrosion behavior of AA2198-T851 alloy substrates was investigated. Three acid pretreatments were employed: nitric acid (HNO3), phosphoric acid (H3PO4) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4). The cerium conversion coating process was performed using a batch solution composed of cerium nitrate and hydrogen peroxide. Microscopic techniques, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, polarization resistance and open-circuit potential measurements were employed to investigate the effect of each acid pretreatment. The untreated and nitric acid pretreated substrates presented more defective cerium conversion layers than the substrates treated with phosphoric and sulfuric acids. Accordingly, the corrosion resistance of the untreated and nitric acid-treated substrates was very low, while that of the substrates treated with phosphoric acid and sulfuric acids were greatly improved. The sulfuric acid pickling treatment was the best pretreatment before cerium conversion coating among the investigated pretreatments on the AA2198-T851 Al-Cu-Li alloy.

    Effect of surface treatments on the localized corrosion resistance of the AA2198‐T8 aluminum lithium alloy welded by FSW process
    2019 - MACHADO, CARULINE de S.C.; KLUMPP, RAFAEL E.; AYUSSO, VICTOR H.; DONATUS, UYIME; MILAGRE, MARIANA X.; ARAUJO, JOAO V. de S.; MACHADO, GLAUSON A.F.; COSTA, ISOLDA
    In this work, the effect of eight types of surface treatments on the corrosion resistance of friction stir welded samples of an AA2198‐T8 Al‐Cu‐Li alloy were tested and compared in an attempt to find suitable alternatives to toxic and carcinogenic hexavalent chromium treatments. All the samples were anodized and subjected to different post‐anodizing treatments. The post‐anodizing treatments were (1) hydrothermal treatment in Ce (NO3)3 6H2O solution; (2) hydrothermal treatment in Ce (NO3)3 6H2O solution with H2O2; (3) hydrothermal treatment in boiling water; (4) hexavalent chromium conversion coating; and (5) immersion in BTSE (bis‐1,2‐(triethoxysilyl) ethane. The corrosion resistance of the treated samples was evaluated by immersion tests in sodium chloride solution (0.1 mol L−1 NaCl) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) of the friction stir weldment. The results showed that among the alternative treatments, the Ce‐containing solutions presented the best corrosion resistance, especially when used without peroxide.

    The effect of surface pretreatment on the corrosion behaviour of silanated AA2198‐T851 Al‐Cu‐Li alloy
    2019 - DONATUS, UYIME; KLUMPP, RAFAEL E.; MOGILI, NAGA V.V.; ANTUNES, RENATO A.; MILAGRE, MARIANA X.; COSTA, ISOLDA
    The corrosion behaviour of silanated AA2198‐T851 alloy substrates with and with no manufacturing‐process induced near‐surface deformed layer (MPI‐NSDL) has been investigated. Two methods (alkaline etching + desmutting and mechanical polishing) were employed in removing the MPI‐NSDL. Silanization was performed using 2‐bistriethoxysilylethane. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), salt spray test, and microscopy techniques were employed in the investigation of the corrosion behaviours. The studies revealed that polishing appeared to be the best silanating pre‐treatment (compared with degreasing and etching + desmutting) for the new generation AA2198‐T851 Al‐Cu‐Li alloy, and this was reflected in the EIS spectra. The etched + desmutted and the degreased surface with MPI‐NSDL did not respond well to silanization and presented more pitting sites per square millimeter. However, the severity of corrosion per pit was more on the polished sample compared with the other two. Also, the corrosion mechanisms were different for the three cases.
