Research Lab Explores Connection Between Humidity and Corrosion

6/21/2023 6:00 AM

Metal oxides exposed to air form a nanoscale water film over the surface whose thickness depends on relative humidity. All-atom molecular dynamics simulations predict that dissolved aluminum ions inside the film will localize near the water’s surface, where they diffuse much more quickly than they do closer to the oxide. Lowering humidity increases confinement with the thin film, slowing the rate of atmospheric corrosion. Image courtesy of Lawrence Livermore National Library.
