Abstract

A method of selecting a corrosion-inhibiting substance includes selecting a corrosion-inhibiting substance to include a non-tungstate anodic corrosion inhibitor with respect to an amount of zinc in an aluminum alloy substrate that is to be coated with the corrosion-inhibiting substance.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A corrosion resistant article comprising:
an aluminum alloy substrate having greater than 5 wt % zinc and 2 wt % or less of copper, the aluminum alloy substrate; and
a layer in contact with the surface of the aluminum substrate, the layer including a non-tungstate anodic corrosion inhibitor and a cathodic corrosion inhibitor, non-tungstate anodic corrosion inhibitor including at least one of a vanadate compound or a molybdate compound and the cathodic corrosion inhibitor including a Group IIIB Periodic Table element.

2. The corrosion resistant article as recited in claim 1 , wherein the aluminum alloy substrate includes 5.1-6.1 wt % of the zinc.

3. The corrosion resistant article as recited in claim 2 , wherein the aluminum alloy substrate includes about 1.2-2 wt % of the copper.

4. The corrosion resistant article as recited in claim 3 , wherein the aluminum substrate comprises manganese, magnesium, silicon, iron, chromium, and titanium.

5. The corrosion resistant article as recited in claim 4 , wherein the aluminum alloy substrate comprises 2.1-2.9 wt % of the magnesium.

6. The corrosion resistant article as recited in claim 5 , wherein the aluminum alloy substrate comprises 0.18-0.35 wt % of the chromium.

7. The corrosion resistant article as recited in claim 6 , wherein the non-tungstate anodic corrosion inhibitor is zinc molybdate.

8. The corrosion resistant article as recited in claim 7 , wherein the cathodic corrosion inhibitor is cerium citrate.

9. The corrosion resistant article as recited in claim 1 , wherein the non-tungstate anodic corrosion inhibitor is zinc molybdate.

10. The corrosion resistant article as recited in claim 9 , wherein the cathodic corrosion inhibitor is cerium citrate.

11. The corrosion resistant article as recited in claim 10 , wherein the aluminum substrate comprises manganese, magnesium, silicon, iron, chromium, and titanium.

12. The corrosion resistant article as recited in claim 11 , wherein the aluminum alloy substrate comprises 0.18-0.35 wt % of the chromium.

13. The corrosion resistant article as recited in claim 12 , wherein the aluminum alloy substrate comprises 2.1-2.9 wt % of the magnesium.

14. The corrosion resistant article as recited in claim 13 , wherein the aluminum alloy substrate includes 5.1-6.1 wt % of the zinc and the aluminum alloy substrate includes about 1.2-2 wt % of the copper.

15. A corrosion resistant article comprising:
a substrate formed of aluminum 7075, the substrate having a surface; and
a layer in contact with the surface of the aluminum substrate, the layer including a non-tungstate anodic corrosion inhibitor and a cathodic corrosion inhibitor, non-tungstate anodic corrosion inhibitor including a vanadate compound or a molybdate compound and the cathodic corrosion inhibitor including cerium citrate.
