Abstract

In this final year project, the aim of this thesis is to comparison of the Ti-6Al-4V alloy on the microstructure and corrosion rate. This thesis is mainly focus in how to find out the corrosion rate of metal alloy like Ti-6AL-4V alloy through some specific process and research. On the other hand, the microstructure for Ti-6AL-4V alloy is studying to different temperatures by using optical microscope for comparing the microstructures. For the sample preparation, there are 6 samples are prepared to heating up in furnace with different temperatures are setting. This is one of important test for cross-section the Ti-6AL-4V alloy to find out the oxidation of its coating surface after take the image microstructure. From the analysis, another focus to find the corrosion rate of the Ti- 6AL-4V alloy is using the corrosion potential test and tafel technique. This technique measures the impedance of a system over corrosion potential measurements including to the sample area and graph of corrosion rate. Therefore, the study on the capability of corrosion potential standard technique and tafel technique are applying under the Gamry Instrument Framework Software to corrosion rate with more comprehensive and complete for making a professional and specific research. From the findings, analysis to the polarization curves is very important to find out the value corrosion rate and compare with different types of temperature.
