The results of the corrosion examination reveal that the A13Ti/ADC12 composite exhibited a minimum corrosion rate of 0.081 g.m 2,hl for an Sr content of 0.2wt%, which is two thirds of that of umnodified composite (0.134 g.m4.h 1). This improved corrosion resistaalce was due to galvamc cor- rosion, which resulted from the low area ratio of the cathode to anode regions.
