LC4铝合金服役环境下点蚀形貌特征及其演变规律

为获取飞机LC4铝合金在服役环境下典型点蚀形貌特征,采用模拟服役环境的加速腐蚀实验环境谱对材料试件进行加速腐蚀实验,定义3个参数蚀坑深度H、蚀坑表面长度L、蚀坑表面宽度W为表征蚀坑形貌特征参量,跟踪测量典型蚀坑不同腐蚀年限下此3个特征参量数值,获取典型蚀坑形貌特征参量数据检测结果。在此基础上,对检测结果分别采用统计分析和分形理论方法进行数据分析,获取LC4铝合金同一腐蚀年限下和不同腐蚀年限下典型点蚀蚀坑的形貌特征及其演变规律。结果表明:同一腐蚀年限下,点蚀蚀坑形貌特征参量符合对数正态分布;随着腐蚀年限的增加,点蚀蚀坑形貌特征参量逐渐体现出明显的分形特征,蚀坑形貌逐渐趋向坑深度较浅、坑表面长度较长、坑表面宽适中的特征。

Pitting Corrosion Topography Characteristics and Evolution Laws ofLC4 Aluminum Alloy in Service Environment

Aircraft aluminum alloy is easy to initiate pitting corrosion in the service environment, the pitting corrosion topography characteristics could directly affect the fatigue mechanical property of structure material.In order to obtain the pitting corrosion topography characteristics of LC4 aluminum alloy in the service environment, the accelerated corrosion test was carried out along the accelerated corrosion test environment spectrum which imitated the service environment spectrum, and the corrosion topography characteristic parameters of corrosion pit depth H,corrosion pit surface length L and corrosion pit surface width W were defined respectively.During the corrosion test process ,the three parameters of typical corrosion pit were successively measured in different equivalent corrosion years for obtaining the corrosion pit damage size data, then the data were analysed through the statistics method and fractal theory.Further more in order to gain the pit topography characteristics in the same equivalent corrosion year and the topography evolution laws during different equivalent corrosion years were gained.The analysis results indicate that LC4 aluminum alloy corrosion pit topography characteristics in the service environment include the following: firstly, the pit topography characteristic parameters conform to the lognormal distributions in the same equivalent corrosion years;secondly,the pit topography characteristic parameters gradually reflect the fractal feature in accordance with the equivalent corrosion year increment, and the pits tend to be shallow, long and moderate wide topography character.
