Abstract: The end grain attack of LDIOCS aluminium alloy plates during chemical milling in hot aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide has been studied.The results show that the microsegregation of some components,i.e.Cu,Si etc.,is the main reason of the end grain at- tack,and it is affected by the conditions of heat treatment as well.The end grain attack significantly diminishes while some technical measures which are beneficial to the reduce of segregation were taken during melting and casting.

Key words: aluminium alloy, chemical milling, corrosion, segregation
