In this study,
pure Fe and Fe matrix composites (5 wt. % nano-Al₂O₃, 5
wt. % micron-B₄C and 2.5 wt. % nano-Al₂O₃-2.5
wt. % micron-B₄C) were manufactured via powder metallurgy. The
density and phase analysis of the produced samples were performed. The
electrochemical corrosion behaviour of the samples in a 3.5 wt. % NaCl solution
was studied using potentiodynamic polarization at 25, 50 and 75 ºC. The
corrosion rate of the samples significantly increased with increasing test
temperature. Also, the effect of reinforcement particulates leads to
deteriorate corrosion resistance of pure Fe due to the presence of galvanic
reactions.

Bu çalışmada, saf Fe ve Fe matrisli kompozitler (%
5ağ. nano-Al2O3, %5ağ. mikron-B4C ve %2.5 ağ. 
nano-Al2O3-2.5 ağ. % mikron-B4C) toz metalurjisi ile üretilmiştir.
Üretilen numunelerin yoğunluk ölçümleri ve faz analizleri gerçekleştirilmiştir.
Numunelerin elektrokimyasal korozyon davranışı 25, 50 ve 75 ºC’de %3.5NaCl
çözeltisi içinde potansiyodinamik polarizasyon ile gerçekleştirilmiştir.
Numunelerin korozyon hızları artan test sıcaklığıyla önemli ölçüde artmıştır.
Ayrıca, takviye partikülleri galvanik reaksiyonlar sebebiyle saf Fe’in korozyon
dayanımını kötüleştirmiştir.
