Anti-Corrosion Test on Basal Slope Protection Materials

VIII-Metals-J-Corrosion protection-1_ CORROSION PROTECTION OF METALS

Nearly all metals, with the exception of gold and platinum, will corrode in an oxidising environment forming compounds such as oxides, hydroxides and sulphides. The degradation of metals by corrosion is a universal reaction, caused by the simple fact that the oxide of a metal has a much lower energy than the metal itself. Hence there is a strong driving force for the oxidation of metals. For ex...

Titanium and Its Alloys As Key Materials for Corrosion Protection Engineering

This paper describes corrosion resistance of titanium and its alloys by introducing a review paper cited from ASM International, Materials Properties Handbook: Titanium Alloys and four examples of practical applications of titanium materials in corrosion protection engineering, which were taken from papers that appeared in the “Special issue on titanium materials” publication of the Japanese la...

Comparison of the Effects of Different Fire Test Regimes on Passive Fire Protection Materials

In the past, HSE’s Health and Safety Laboratory (HSL) has studied the performance of a variety of passive fire protection (PFP) materials in protecting a part-filled LPG tank subjected to hydrocarbon pool fire engulfment. However, this is only one potential fire incident scenario that can threaten a process vessel; another is a jet fire, perhaps resulting from an ignited release from a leaking ...
