Abstract  

In view of the corrosion of 3A21 Al-alloy in glycol coolant, this paper studied the influence of trace amounts of Cl- and Cu2+ ions on the corrosion behavior of 3A21 Al-alloy in ethylene glycol-water coolant at 50 ℃ by immersion experiments and surface analysis technology. The results indicated that Cl- ions resulted in pitting corrosion of the alloy, and the pitting corrosion susceptibility increased with the increase of the concentration of Cl-. Cu2+ ions could promote the breakdown of the passive film, and react with Al resulting in a deposition of metallic Cu on the Al-alloy surface, which in turn accelerated the corrosion of Al-alloy owing to the galvanic effect. 3A21 Al-alloy took place serious corrosion owing to the overlapping effect of the breakdown of the passive film and the galvanic effect in the case of co-existence of Cl- and Cu2+.
