The corrosion behaviour of aluminium alloys EN AW-6026 and EN AW-6082 in 0,1 M and 1 M sulphuric acid solutions at different temperatures has been investigated by using gravimetric techniques and a digital microscope. The study revealed that the corrosion rate increases with higher temperature and concentration of H 2 SO 4 . The surface attack increased with the increasing of the concentration of sulphuric acid and the temperature. Alloys EN AW-6026 and EN AW-6082 have a higher corrosion resistance at 25 °C.
