form. When (non-composite) aircraft are built, most of what we have are alloys of aluminum, iron, copper and nickel. These elements, when compounded with other elements or more complex materials, provide us with characteristics that are better suited than the elements in their un-alloyed form. Things such as strength, ductility, corrosion resistance, weight and conductivity are examples of what may be improved by alloying materials. The galvanic corrosion that we are familiar with requires only a potential voltage diff erence within or across the material and an electrolyte (conductive path — usually water with some dissolved salts). Corrosion really just means being gnawed away by chemical or physical processes.
