Abstract

In this study, the corrosion behavior of Aluminum Alloy 6063 for window and door frames is investigated. Besides that, the implementation of this research is to identify the effect of concentration of aggressive ion or environment, pH and exposure times to the corrosion rate. The purpose of doing this project is to measure the corrosion rate of aluminum alloy 6063 used for window and door frame of residential house constructed nearby the sea. In order to study the corrosion of the aluminum alloy 6063, the immersion testing is used. The corrosive medium used in this study is Natrium Chloride (NaCl) with the various concentrations. The specimen is fully immersed in the beaker with NaCI solution in concentration range of O.lM to 5M against period of 7, 14, 21, and 28 days. Prior to any test, the samples were mechanically polished on a range of abrasive paper to a 1000 grit finish and washed in distilled water. The mass of the specimen is weighted before and after the test to measure the mass loss and further the corrosion rate. The micrographic analysis showed that the alloy suffered from pitting attack on its surface. The corrosion rate of the alloy increased with an increase in test concentration with the higher corrosion rate for the 5M concentration. Result indicated that the intensity of corrosion attack is influenced by concentration and pH of solution but not for the exposure times.
