Abstract

The effect of Cr replacement for Fe on the kinetics of Cu clustering and on the electrochemical behavior of Fe73.5−XCu1Nb3Si13.5B9CrX amorphous alloys has been studied for improving the corrosion resistance of Fe–Si–B–Nb–Cu Finemet type alloys. The corrosion testing of these materials was performed in 0.5 M KOH solutions using AC impedance measurements. These experimental results are discussed from the thermodynamical point of view, and the optimized microstructure to achieve a high corrosion resistance has been found.
