Abstract
In this paper, the corrosion resistance behaviour of the eutectoid alloy Zn -Al was studied in chlorinated solutions. Zinalco (80% Zn - 18% Al- 2% Cu), was obtained by several processes (as cast, continuous casting and extrude d) and it is compared your corrosion resistance versus the austenitic stain less steel 316L in oder to substitute this steel in different technological applications. We obtained the polarization curves, rest and corrosion pote ntial. The study of surfaces was performed by scanning electron microscope in order to determinate the damage produced by the corrosion process. Besid es, the metallic ion release from the alloys to chlorinated solution were d eterminated.
