Effects of substituting ytterbium for scandium on corrosion behaviour of Al-Sc alloy

The localized corrosion and electrochemical behaviour of Al-0.28 wt.% Sc and Al-0.24 wt.% Sc-0.07 wt.% Yb alloys have been studied in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution. The results showed that the impurity intermetallic phases containing Fe can act as cathodes and promote localized corrosion in the surrounding...
