Corrosion behaviour of Aluminium Metal Matrix reinforced with Multi-wall Carbon Nanotube
Compared to other alloys of Aluminium, AA5083 alloy is one of the most promising material which is used in corrosive and cryogenic environment. The effect of the purity and weight percentage of Multi-wall Carbon Nanotube (MWCNT) added to the Aluminium alloy is the widely focused research area in the...

| description | Compared to other alloys of Aluminium, AA5083 alloy is one of the most promising material which is used in corrosive and cryogenic environment. The effect of the purity and weight percentage of Multi-wall Carbon Nanotube (MWCNT) added to the Aluminium alloy is the widely focused research area in the field of Cryogenics in recent years. In this present work, MWCNT having more than 98% purity, 5–20 nm mean diameter (D) and 1–10 μm average length (L) was used with different compositions like 1, 1.25, 1.5 and 1.75 by weight % to improve the corrosion behaviour of the Aluminium Nano Metal Matrix Composite (ANMMC). The results show Aluminium alloy AA5083 reinforced with MWCNT exhibit nominal changes in density than pure AA5083 and the uniform immersion corrosion tests (ASTM-G31) of the same composite in 90 ml of HCl shows increase in corrosion resistance as compared to AA5083 alloy. |
