Abstract

Rapidly solidified (RS) Pb-Al alloy in H2SO4 solution at room temperature (30 degrees C) was found to, be more corrosion resistant to that of conventional Pb-Sb alloy. Polarization curves, for RS. and as cast Pb-4Al, Pb-5Sb alloys and Pb, indicated that the critical and passive current densities were lowest in Pb-Al alloys. Further, RS alloy showed more corrosion resistant behaviour than all other alloys and metal under investigation Oxygen evolution reaction potential was not affected by aluminium addition to the lead alloy
