1. General: aluminum corrosion
1.1 Thermodynamics: E-pH diagram
Aluminum is one of the highly oxidizable metals with a very low standard electrode potential, E0(Al3+/Al) = –1.66 V/ENH . It can therefore be oxidized by the usual oxidizers such as oxygen gas O2 or H+ ions, but also directly by the water molecule H2O. The E = f(pH) diagram of aluminum in water shows that aluminum metal is not stable in water and is oxidized to solid aluminum hydroxide...
