Optimizing SiC Content for Enhanced Corrosion Resistance in Al-5%Cu Alloys Fabricated by Powder Metallurgy

Aluminum–copper (Al–Cu) alloys reinforced with silicon carbide (SiC) are attractive for marine applications, yet their corrosion behavior is reported inconsistently in the literature: SiC has been described as both a physical barrier and a galvanic catalyst, depending on its content and distribution. To clarify this, t...
