    Welding and galvanic coupling effects on the electrochemical activity of dissimilar AA2050 and AA7050 aluminum alloys welded by Friction Stir Welding (FSW)

    In this work, the effects of friction stir welding (FSW) on the microstructure and electrochemical activities of dissimilar AA2050 and AA7050 aluminum alloys have been investigated. Local electrochemical tests supported by surface analytical characterization were used to study the local electrochemical activities developed along the weld zones of the dissimilar alloys. The investigation was carried out on the cross-section of the welded Al alloys. The results showed that the friction stir welding (FSW) of the dissimilar alloys affected the microstructure and the electrochemical behavior of the different regions (HAZ, TMAZ, SZ) formed by the welding process. Scanning vibrating electrode technique (SVET) and micropotentiometry by using an ion-selective microelectrode showed that TMAZ was the zone with the highest electrochemical activity. This zone corresponded to the transition region between the two welded alloys. The high electrochemical activity observed in this region was associated with the effect of welding on the microstructure and, also, with the galvanic coupling between the two alloys, where the alloy AA7050 acted as an anode and the AA2050 as a cathode. Preferential corrosion attack on the AA7050 alloy was also evident.

    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.
