Алуминијум и његове легуре су витални за ваздухопловну индустрију и важни у транспорту и грађевинској индустрији. Алуминијум се налази у многим производима, укључујући аутомобиле, прозорски оквири, кухињски апарати и друго. Познат по својој снази, дуктилност и мала тежина, такође је популаран због своје отпорности на рђу.
Aluminum is Rust-Resistant
Though aluminum is rust-resistant, it can still corrode. Rust and corrosion are two different things. Corrosion happens thanks to environmental elements causing chemical degeneration of metal. Rust, с друге стране, is a specific type of corrosion whereas iron oxidizes from exposure to oxygen. Aluminum doesn’t contain iron, so it won’t rust.
But It Can Corrode Over Time
Тако, aluminum won’t rust but it can corrode over time. Usually, corrosion takes quite a while to occur. Aluminum corrosion is the gradual decay of aluminum molecules into its oxides that degrades its physical and chemical properties.
Ways to Protect Aluminum From Corrosion
If you want to protect your aluminum items from corrosion, store them in a climate-controlled environment to avoid harsh environmental factors. Na primer, a vehicle stored inside a garage will do better than one left out in the snow, rain, wind, i sl. Natural elements like rain and humidity can cause aluminum to corrode.
What else can you do? Get your aluminum item “clear coated” for protection against corrosion. This involves putting a protective layer over the surface of aluminum protecting it from the surrounding environment.
