1. General: aluminum corrosion
1.1 Thermodynamics: E-pH diagram
Aluminum is one of the highly oxidizable metals with a very low standard electrode potential, E 0 (Al 3+ /Al) = –1.66 V/ENH . It can therefore be oxidized by the usual oxidizers such as oxygen gas O 2 or H + ions, but also directly by the water molecule H 2 O. The E = f(pH) diagram of aluminum in...
