Christian Vargel, throughout his long career within Pechiney, has been a practitioner of aluminium corrosion and a recognised expert in this field. His first book Le comporte-ment de Valuminium et de ses alliages (The behavior of aluminium and its alloys) was published by Dunod in 1979.

On the other hand the localized corrosion and more specially the role of galvanic coupling is largely discussed for aluminium alloys. In these alloys, microstmctural corrosion e.g. pitting or intergranular corrosion (IGC) can be initiated at the interface between constiment irrtermetallic (IM) particles and the matrix. Most of the constituent particles contained in stractural alloys have a simple cathodic behavior towards the matrix and support reduc-tioa This reduction can be corrsidered, in a simple way, as a fotu-electron process ...
