Aluminum alloys aircraft skins

The resistance to corrosion of some alloy sheet is improved by cladding the sheet with a thin layer of aluminum or aluminum alloy that is anodic to the base alloy. These anodic layers are typically 5—10% of the sheet thickness. Under corrosive conditions, the cladding provides electrochemical protection to the core at cut edges, abrasions, and fastener holes by corroding preferentially. Aircraft skin sheet is an example of such a clad product. [Pg.126]

The aluminum alloys that have been investigated in the previous sections, including [2B], [7B], and [2A], are materials used for aircraft skins. Aircraft skins are readily... [Pg.676]

Improving paint adhesion on aluminum or aluminum alloys, mainly aircraft skins, by treatment with a solution of chromic acid. Also called chromodizing or chromatizing. Not to be confused with chro-mating or chromizing. [Pg.473]
