Abstract

These days the use of Al is ever-increasing as a building block for construction as well as aerospace industry and electronic home appliances because of its high strength with light weight and good surface appearances. However as the strength of the Al alloy increases, it is more susceptible to hydrogen which is incorporated in the melt through the decomposition of the humidity in the ambient. The object of this study is to achieve a stable electrochemical hydrogen sensor which can be used in a harsh environment of Al alloy melts.
