Effect of Heat Treatment on Corrosion Behaviour of Welded AA6061 Aluminium Alloy in Seawater

The effect of various heat treatments on the corrosion behaviour of welded AA6061 aluminium alloy was investigated. Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) was used for welding butt joint specimens. Corrosion behaviour was determined in seawater solution using potentiodynamic polarization method. Microstruc...
