Abstract

To evaluate the residual life and safe operation of metallic materials, it is crucial to accurately identify the intensity and depth of corrosion pits. Scanning acoustic microscopy (SAM) using tomographic acoustic microimaging (TAMI) under C-mode was employed to determine corrosion pit morphology and depth on aluminum alloy 7050, and the reults were cross-checked by optical microscopy. Maximum and average pitting depths of 204 μm and 80 μm, respectively, were determined by multilayer scannning, and a pitted area of 30 ∼ 40 % was calculated using binary image processing.
