Abstract

The effect of cadmium on the galvanic corrosion behavior of AA2024T3/mild steel couple has been studied. Expectedly, cadmium stroking on the mild steel reduced the galvanic corrosion of the couple by as much as 20 µA because of the formation of a CdO/Cd(OH)₂ layer on mild steel. On the other hand, cadmium stroking on AA2024T3 has no positive effect on the galvanic corrosion behavior of the couple, but appears to have a negative effect instead and, hence, may cause increased attack on AA2024T3.
