Work by the US Bureau of Mines" involving galvanic couple experiments showed that the normally low corrosion rates of molybdenum were reduced further by contact with aluminium, SAE 1 430 steel or magnesium in aerated solutions of synthetic sea water or 3% sodium chloride. [Pg.847]

The US Bureau of Mines found the chemical and galvanic corrosion behaviour of both the TZM and Mo-30W alloy to be generally equal or superior to that of unalloyed molybdenum in many aqueous solutions of acids, bases and salts. Notable exceptions occurred in 6-1 % nitric acid where both alloys corroded appreciably faster than molybdenum. In mercuric chloride solutions the TZM alloy was susceptible to a type of crevice corrosion which was not due to differential aeration. The alloys were usually not adversely affected by contact with dissimilar metals in galvanic couple experiments, but the dissimilar metals sometimes corroded galvanically. Both alloys were resistant to synthetic sea water spray at 60°C. [Pg.848]
