Title: CORROSION AND ELECTROCHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF TITANIUM, ZIRCONIUM AND TITANIUM-ZIRCONIUM ALLOYS IN ACID SOLUTIONS. PART II

OSTI ID:4735511

The corrosion and electrochemical behavior of titanium, zirconium, and titanium --zirconium alloys in solutions of sulfuric, nitric, and phosphoric acids and also in mixtures of nitric and phosphoric acids, were investigated. Alloying titanium with zirconium increases the titanium corrosionresistance in sulfuric acid solutions at 100 deg when the concentration of the latter is 80%. At concentrations higher than that neither of the metals nor titanium- zirconium alloys are stable. In phosphoric and nitric acid solutions, titanium-- zirconium alloys have no advantage over titanium and zirconium. (auth)
