Corrosion resistance in a dilute Harrison's solution was evaluated using a non-electrochemical drop test and electrochemical techniques. Surface analysis supported the electrochemical findings obtained with the chosen RSM conditions. Unlike zinc and cold-rolled steel, AA5754 exhibits heightened sensitivity to the interplay of pH, conversion time, and H$_2$ZrF$_6$ concentration, which is attributed to the presence of intermetallic particles governing cathodic reactions and the subsequent conversion processes.</dc:description><dc:date>2025</dc:date><dc:date>2025-03-04 10:54:00</dc:date><dc:type>Članek v reviji</dc:type><dc:identifier>167612</dc:identifier><dc:language>sl</dc:language></rdf:Description></rdf:RDF>
