Nanocoating and Electrospraying Techniques Used for Corrosion Mitigation of Aluminum in Nitrogen dioxide Environment
Abstract: Nitrogen gas absorbs moist air to produce nitric acid. It develops acidic medium for aluminum. It forms a corrosion cell on the surface of aluminum. The formation of corrosion cell is written as: Al|Al+3||H+|H2 thus Corrosion reactions accelerate on aluminum surface and Al is oxidized into Al+3 and the H+ ions is reduced into H2. This acid produces various forms of corrosion in aluminum like galvanic, pitting, stress, crevice, blistering, …

Role and Application of Aluminum Alloys
Abstract: Alloy wheels are wheels that are made from an alloy of aluminum or magnesium. Alloys are mixtures of metal and other elements. They generally provide greater strength over pure metals, which are usually much softer and more ductile. Aircraft manufacturers use high-strength alloys (principally alloy 7075) to strengthen aluminum aircraft structures. Aluminum alloy 7075 has Copper (1.6 %), Magnesium (2.5 %) and zinc (5.6 %) added for ultimate strength, but …
