The corrosion characterization of quenched Al -2.5% Zn binary alloy system has been concluded using weight loss technique. Preweighed coupon samples were immersed in 0.25, 0.5 and 1.0M of simulated hydrochloric and tetraoxosulphate (vi) acidic environments, respectively. The set up were allowed to s...
