Abstract

Abstract The corrosion and electrochemical behaviour of titanium, zirconium and titanium‐zirconium alloys in solutions of sulphuric, nitric and phosphoric acids and also in mixtures of nitric and phosphoric acids, has been investigated. Alloying titanium with zirconium increases the titanium corrosion‐resistance in sulphuric acid solutions at 100° when the concentration of the latter is 80%. At concentrations higher than that neither of the metals nor titanium‐zirconium alloys are stable. In phosphoric and nitric acid solutions, titanium‐zirconium alloys have no advantage over titanium and zirconium.
