This paper reports the results of research on the effect of hydrogen permeation and the absence of passive layers on the variations in the corrosive properties of aluminum alloys. The study demonstrated that such variations contribute to the deterioration of corrosive properties, which in turn contributes to shortening the reliability time associated with the operation of aluminum alloy structures. The analysis involved structural aluminum alloys: EN AW-1050A, EN AW-5754, and EN AW-6060. It was demonstrated that the absorption of hydrogen by the analyzed alloys led to the shift of the electrode potential to the negative side. The built hydrogen corrosion cells demonstrate in each case the formation of electromotive force (EMF) cells. The initial EMF value of the cell and its duration depends on the duration of hydrogenation. As a result of removing the passive layers, the electrode potential also changes to the negative side. Following the removal of the passive layer from one of the electrodes, the cells also generated a galvanic (metal) cell. The duration of such a cell is equivalent to the time of restoration of the passive layer. The formation of such hydrogen and metal galvanic cells changes the electrochemical properties of aluminum alloys, therefore deteriorates the corrosive properties of aluminum alloys.
