Abstract	The present investigation focuses on the corrosion and wear behavior of AluminIum 6082 alloy under a sodium sulphate environment. Experimental work involved preparation of specimens, heat treatment, and immersion in a 0.5M Na2SO4 solution for various durations. Specimens were evaluated for corrosion effects through visual inspection and mechanical tests including impact, bending, and sliding wear tests. The results revealed that prolonged exposure increases corrosion severity and affects mechanical strength. Taguchi orthogonal array and ANOVA methods were used to analyze the parameters influencing wear rate. The study provides insights into the influence of sodium sulphate exposure and heat treatment on the degradation behavior of AluminIum 6082.
