Abstract
The formation of the conversion layer progressively reduces the Volta potential difference between intermetallics and matrix. This potential difference is completely eliminated for relatively long immersion times. This is associated to an improvement of the corrosion behaviour of AA6016, as shown by potentiodynamic polarization curves. Besides, the deposited conversion layer improves the adhesion of an acrylic paint on the alloy.
