9307308 Hebert This research examines the mechanism of surface pitting in aluminum alloys. Surface impurity concentration is varied by annealing and surface dissolution treatments to asses the effect on pit density. Surface impurity and defect concentrations are monitored through surface analytical techniques, including Rutherford Backscattering Spectroscopy, Secondary Ion Mass Spectroscopy, and positron annihilation measurements. Relationships between the importance of candidate defects (e.g., vacancy/impurity clusters, dislocations, surface roughness) as corrosion sites are sought. Early stages of pit initiation are examined through the interaction of chloride ions with aluminum oxide films. The positron measurements are carried out as a function of temperature in order to provide defect migration or bonding energies so that the atomic structure of the defects can be characterized. These measurements are performed on high purity aluminum doped with impurity elements to determine how various impurities behave as corrosion sites. %%% Practical information should result from this research that will assist in controlling corrosion of aluminum and its alloys. ***

9307308赫伯特这项研究研究了铝合金中表面斑点的机理。 表面杂质浓度通过退火和表面溶解处理而变化，以评估对凹坑密度的影响。表面杂质和缺陷浓度通过表面分析技术（包括卢瑟福反向散射光谱，次级离子质谱和肯定歼灭测量值）进行监测。 寻求候选缺陷的重要性（例如，空位/杂质簇，位错，表面粗糙度）是腐蚀位点的关系。 通过氯离子与氧化铝膜的相互作用来检查凹坑启动的早期阶段。 正电子测量是作为温度的函数进行的，以提供缺陷迁移或粘结能，以便可以表征缺陷的原子结构。 这些测量值是对具有杂质元素掺杂的高纯度铝进行的，以确定各种杂质如何作为腐蚀位点进行。 这项研究应产生%%％的实用信息，该信息将有助于控制铝及其合金的腐蚀。 ***
