Abstract:The corrosion behavior of the Cu-Ti alloys with different Ti contents in 3.5% (mass fraction) NaCl solution was investigated using electrochemical measurements, immersion tests, mass loss measurements and SEM observation. The results show that Ti dissolved in the Cu matrix changes the corrosion process of the alloys. Pure Cu sample exhibits a typical active–passive- transpassive corrosion behavior. The anodic polarization current densities of the Cu-Ti alloys steadily increase with increasing applied potential, indicating that active dissolution of copper proceeds due to the potential difference in the galvanic coupling of Cu and Ti. The increase of Ti content decreases the corrosion resistance of the Cu-Ti alloys.
Key words: Cu-Ti alloy; potentiodynamic polarization; mass loss; immersion test
