Samples before and after the thermal treatment exhibit similar results on cyclic polarisation curves, electrochemical impedance measurements in 3.5 wt% NaCl, and tensile and hardness tests. However, electron microscopy characterisation reveals that the application of this temperature for sufficient time causes most of the grain limits to be decorated by Al3Mg2 particles which in turn provokes the sensitization of the alloy to intergranular corrosion processes due to microgalvanic coupling}, organization = {SEM and TEM data were obtained at SC-ICYT University of Cadiz.
