中文摘要

污水清洁的管道内机器人的引入为研究人员提供了管道检查的新选择，如泄漏、裂缝、气体和腐蚀检测，这些都是当前工业场景中常见的标准应用。在所有这些情况下经常被忽视的问题是机器人固有的抗腐蚀能力。基于旋转超声和机械搅拌（RUMS）的铸造方法，讨论了加入不同碳纳米管质量分数（0、0.5wt%、1wt%和1.5wt%）的7075铝的机械、微观结构和腐蚀性能，同时不会影响机器人的机械性能。结果表明，1wt%铝-碳纳米管纳米复合材料表现出良好的腐蚀和机械性能，达到了机器人对污水环境的要求。

Abstract

Abstract

The introduction of in-pipe robots for sewage cleaning provides researchers with new options for pipe inspection, such as leakage, crack, gas, and corrosion detection, which are standard applications common in the current industrial scenario. The question that is frequently overlooked in all these cases is the inherent resistance of the robots to corrosion. The mechanical, microstructural, and corrosion properties of aluminum 7075 incorporated with various weight percentages (0, 0.5wt%, 1wt%, and 1.5wt%) of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are discussed. It is fabricated using a rotational ultrasonication with mechanical stirring (RUMS)-based casting method for improved corrosion resistance without compromising the mechanical properties of the robot. 1wt% CNTs–aluminum nanocomposite shows good corrosion and mechanical properties, meeting the requirements imposed by the sewage environment of the robot.
