Abstract
Commercial Zn-Al alloys are susceptible to Intergranular
Corrosion (IGC) restricting their widespread use for
various applications. In this paper the IGC behaviour of
two important foundry alloys namely Zn-8Al and Zn-12Alhas been studied through microstructural observations
with a view to improving the resistance to intergranular
attack. It has been shown that a special flux
containing boric oxide along with fluoride and chloride
salts employed during the preparation of the alloys significantly improves the resistance to intergranular attack.
