Corrosion of Copper Microalloyed with Yttrium

Materials Science Aims and scope

Abstract

We investigate the corrosion behavior of copper microalloyed with yttrium. We show that microalloyed copper containing 0.02–0.03% yttrium is not susceptible to intercrystalline corrosion, while the rate of general corrosion of microalloyed copper containing 0.015–0.02% yttrium is a factor of three to four lower than that of M0b oxygen-free copper.
