Dealloying-driven local corrosion by intermetallic constituent particles and dispersoids in aerospace aluminium alloys

Nanoscopic characterization of heterogeneous intermetallic particles (IMPs) which microstructurally and compositionally evolve during local corrosion is crucial in unravelling the mechanisms and sequence of initial and local corrosion events. Herein, we study site-specific initiation events focused on microscopic constituent intermetallic...
