MIC in Aluminum Brass Tubes
M - Aluminum BrassP - Seamless tubeAp - MaritimeCd - Preferential Dissolution
Cm - FeCl3+HCl+Ethanol Etched MicroDf - Alpha
Micrography of a transverse section of the tube, close to the leakage point. The thickness is localized reduced where the internal passive layer was ruptured, and the chemical effect of the biological proliferation created a high corrosion rate.
