Microstructural and electrochemical characterization of environmentally friendly conversion layers on aluminium alloys
Cerium conversion layers (CeCL) have been investigated as a replacement for chromium conversion layers to protect Al alloys against corrosion. In this work the microstructure and the electrochemical behaviour of aluminium alloy 2024 with and without CeCL were investigated using, respectively, SEM-ED...
