Abstract

Amorphous alloys also known as metallic glasses appear to have unique corrosion resistant properties. The corrosion characteristics of a (Ti₉₀Ru₁₀)₈₇Si₁₃ alloy have been measured in 0.5 M NaCl and in artificial seawater (ASW) by linear polarization resistance, ac impedance and small amplitude cyclic voltammetry (SACV). Results show a low corrosion rate of the alloy in these media, with the rate of corrosion in seawater slightly faster than the rate of corrosion in sodium chloride.
