Abstract

The mechanical and corrosion characteristics of Al 6092-20 SiC have been investigated. Al 6092-20 SiC shows an excellent combination of mechanical strength and corrosion resistance in highly corrosive Arabian seawater. The micro-analytical studies suggest that the preferred site for localized corrosion is the Al 6092-SiC interface, which has an abundant population of intermetallics.
