Why Do Die Cast Camera Housings Corrode? Leak & Pore Physics
Why Do Die Cast Camera Housings Leak and Corrode Outdoors? Reference Standard: ASTM B117 Salt Spray (Fog) Testing & ISO 20653 Road vehicles — Degrees of protection (IP code) Short Answer Aluminum alloy camera housings fail primarily due to the fracture of the protective Al2O3 passivation layer during high-shear CNC machining, which creates kinetic sites for intergranular corrosion. Furthermore, sub-micron internal porosity allows for capillary condensation of water vapor during thermal “breathing” cycles, leading to irreversible internal lens fogging and electrolytic circuit failure.
