  • Publication number: 20220290304
    Abstract: An aluminum alloy material having a base material formed from an aluminum alloy, and a chemical treatment film on the surface of the base material. In a cathode polarization curve obtained by measuring the aluminum alloy material at a sweeping speed of 20 mV/min by using a saturated KCl silver-silver chloride electrode as a reference electrode in a 5 wt % NaCl static aqueous solution at a temperature of 25° C. and a pH of 5.5, the electrode potential at which the absoute value of the current density reaches 10 ?A/cm2 is ?1350 to ?1150 mV.

  • Publication number: 20210207901
    Abstract: An aluminum alloy heat exchanger includes a core material formed of an aluminum alloy including Mn of 0.60 to 2.00 mass % and Cu of 1.00 mass % or less, with the balance being Al and inevitable impurities, and a sacrificial anode material formed of an aluminum alloy including Zn of 2.50 to 10.00 mass %, with the balance being Al and inevitable impurities. Pitting potential of a sacrificial anode material surface of a tube of the aluminum alloy heat exchanger in a 5% NaCl solution is ?800 (mV vs Ag/AgCl) or less, and pitting potential of an aluminum fin of the aluminum alloy heat exchanger in a 5% NaCl solution is equal to or more than the pitting potential of the sacrificial anode material surface of the tube of the aluminum alloy heat exchanger in a 5% NaCl solution.
