Atmospheric corrosion and the resulting mechanical property degradation of 2524-T3 aluminum alloy in marine environments with different environmental factors are investigated. 2524-T3 aluminum alloy exhibits the most severe corrosion in tropical marine atmosphere, attributed to the highest temperature, humidity, rainfall, Cl- deposition rate, and the longest time of wetness. The EIS results are closely related to the corrosion evolution process. The degradation sensitivity indexed by elongation, reduction-in-area, and tensile strength is correlated with the average corrosion-induced surface defect depth (D′ave), while the elasticity modulus is related to the maximum corrosion penetration depth (Dmax).
