Corrosion Behavior of Copper in Liquid Perfluorocarbon.

Corrosion Behavior of Copper in Chloride Media

The electrochemical behavior of copper in 0.05 M HCl and 0.05 M NaCl carried out at open-circuit potential and at constant anodic potential after one hour has been investigated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) at 20 °C, 40 °C and 60 °C. The formation of copper chloride (CuCl) film does not protect copper from dissolution in the chloride media. The physical properties of the pa...

Corrosion Behavior of Copper in the Presence of Proteins

Copper-bearing intrauterine devices(Cu-IUDs) are being increasingly used all over the world. However, the dissolution of copper in the presence of proteins is not well characterized. Here, with open circuit potential, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements and potentiodynamic polarization test, the corrosion behavior of copper samples in different single-protein simulated uterine s...

Hot Corrosion Behavior of Magnesite – Chromite Refractories Used in Reverberatory Furnaces at Sarcheshmeh Copper Complex

Iran’s Sarcheshmeh copper industries with an annual production of 120,000 tones are the biggest of it’s kind in South Asia. The main method of production is pyrometallurgical matte making in two reverberatory furnaces which use direct–bond magnesite-chromite refractories supplied by German and Austrian companies. Following a recent major overhaul, bricks in contact with slag, matte and furnace ...

The Effect of Simple Shear Extrusion on the Corrosion Behavior of Copper

In this study, corrosion behavior of copper that was deformed by Simple Shear Extrusion (SSE) method was investigated in 3%wt NaCl solution. Modified Williamson-Hall method, applied on the X-ray diffraction patterns of the samples, showed that increase in the number of SSE passes led to increasing in the dislocation density in the copper samples. Moreover, such deformed samples exh...
