![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: In situ corrosion monitoring of Ti–6Al–4V alloy in H2SO4/HCl mixed solution using electrochemical AFM In situ corrosion monitoring of Ti–6Al–4V alloy in H2SO4/HCl mixed solution using electrochemical AFM](/preview/png/190769.png)
Electrochemical atomic force microscope (ECAFM) was employed for in situ observation of corrosion of solution annealed and furnace cooled Ti–6Al–4V titanium alloy in 0.5 mol l−1 H2SO4 + 1 mol l−1 HCl mixed solution. A scanning electron microscope (SEM) equipped with an energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) was also used for microstructure examination and chemical composition analysis. For solution annealed followed by furnace-cooled Ti–6Al–4V titanium alloy, selective corrosion of α phase and galvanic effect at α/β interface could be clearly observed at open circuit potential under ECAFM. A higher dissolution rate was also found in α phase than β phase on the bare Ti–6Al–4V titanium alloy. The effect of potential on the corrosion behavior was also explored. Negligible corrosion was found after potentiostatic etching at −0.5 and −0.85 VPt for 120 min. However, selective dissolution of α phase with respect to β phase occurred when the potential was controlled at −0.9 VPt. The polarity inversion during potentiostatic etching at −0.9 VPt was also found and discussed in this study.
