Embodiment 1

[0011] Use high-purity aluminum as raw material, add trace alloying elements (weight percentage): zinc 0.75% (wt), gallium 0.10% (wt), silicon 0.75% (wt), other impurities iron + copper + nickel ≦ 0.15%, calcium ≦0.15%, the balance is aluminum. The low driving potential aluminum alloy sacrificial anode of the present invention is produced by casting process: first, put the aluminum ingot into the aluminum melting furnace for melting, then add zinc, gallium, silicon and other materials when all the aluminum ingots are about to be melted, and stir with a graphite rod or a stirring device , and then remove impurities such as oxidized slag on the surface of the molten aluminum, and then it can be cast out of the furnace. The casting process must be continuous, and the molten aluminum can be completely cooled and solidified.

Abstract

The invention relates to a low-driving potential aluminum alloy sacrificial anode. The sacrificial anode comprises (wt%) the components as follows: zinc 0.05-1.0, indium 0.05-0.3, silicon 0.5-1.5, impurities including ferrum, copper and nickel not higher than 0.30, and high purity aluminum as a main raw material in balance. The sacrificial anode is manufactured by casting technique or other metallurgical means. The sacrificial anode has an operating potential in natural seawater of -0.80-(-0.85) V; has the advantages of uniform dissolution pattern, and high current efficiency (not lower than 85%); and can be used for corrosion control of hydrogen embrittlement sensitive materials such as high-tensile steel, stainless steel and titanium alloy.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to a corrosion protection technology for structures of hydrogen embrittlement sensitive materials such as high-strength steel, stainless steel and titanium alloy in a marine environment, in particular to a low driving potential aluminum alloy sacrificial anode. Background technique: [0002] The marine environment is a harsh corrosive environment, and metal structures serving in the marine environment usually adopt cathodic protection corrosion protection technology. With the development of material technology, the strength grade of high-strength steel is getting higher and higher, and its application is becoming more and more extensive. Materials such as high-strength steel, high-strength stainless steel, and titanium alloys are widely used in weapons and equipment, submarine pipelines, and seawater cooling water piping systems. These materials are sensitive to hydrogen embrittlement. As the strength increases, they are prone to...
