工業用アルミニウムは腐食しますか?

アルミニウムとその合金は、航空宇宙産業にとって不可欠であり、輸送および建築産業において重要です。. アルミニウムは自動車を含む多くの製品に使用されています, 窓枠, キッチン家電など. その強さで知られる, 延性と軽量, 錆びにくいことでも人気です.

Aluminum is Rust-Resistant

Though aluminum is rust-resistant, it can still corrode. Rust and corrosion are two different things. Corrosion happens thanks to environmental elements causing chemical degeneration of metal. Rust, 一方, is a specific type of corrosion whereas iron oxidizes from exposure to oxygen. Aluminum doesn’t contain iron, so it won’t rust.

But It Can Corrode Over Time

それで, aluminum won’t rust but it can corrode over time. Usually, corrosion takes quite a while to occur. Aluminum corrosion is the gradual decay of aluminum molecules into its oxides that degrades its physical and chemical properties.

Ways to Protect Aluminum From Corrosion

If you want to protect your aluminum items from corrosion, store them in a climate-controlled environment to avoid harsh environmental factors. 例えば, a vehicle stored inside a garage will do better than one left out in the snow, rain, wind, など. Natural elements like rain and humidity can cause aluminum to corrode.

What else can you do? Get your aluminum item “clear coated” for protection against corrosion. This involves putting a protective layer over the surface of aluminum protecting it from the surrounding environment.
