Economic analysis and environmental impact of anti-corrosive protection systems in a full-scale aeronautical fuselage part from aluminium – copper – lithium alloy

Roussis P., Vasileiou E., Lazaridou I., Karanika A., Skarvelis P., Vourdas N., (Corresponding) Alexopoulos N.

Topic:

5. ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT AND POLICY

A standard corrosion protection system for aluminium alloys for the aerospace sector typically involves anodization—forming a protective oxide layer on the alloy surface—followed by the application of a coating through spray painting. Hexavalent chromium has traditionally been employed in both...Read more
