Organic corrosion inhibitor is one of lower cost technologies that limit the deterioration of concrete structures. The influence of a newly prepared organic corrosion inhibitor on the corrosion behavior of carbon steel in simulated concrete pore solution was investigated by polarization curves, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and so on. The effect of organic corrosion inhibitors on conc...

One of the most frequently corrosion type is the atmospheric corrosion. Carbon steel behavior at atmospheric corrosion is presented on base of the literature data study. This has been reported to account for more failures in terms of cost and tonnage than any other type. About 80% from all degradations produced by corrosion in the metallic constructions are due to the atmospheric corrosion. The...

This study deals with onshore oilfield drilling fluid system to drill corrosion. Corrosion under static and dynamic conditions of the drilling fluid was evaluated. The effect of temperature and pressure on corrosion was examined. Corrosion was more severely affected by temperature compared to pressure. The combined effect of a deoxidizing agent and an inhibitor was observed to exhibit better pr...

statement of problem: many attempts have been made in order to evaluate the amalgam corrosion behavior as an indicator of biocompatibility. purpose: the aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the initial corrosion of four different brands of dental amalgams. materials and methods: four different types of commercial high copper dental amalgam were studied. a special mold was used and twen...

Fuels that biodegrade too easily can exacerbate through-wall pitting corrosion of pipelines and tanks and result in unintentional environmental releases. We tested the biological stability of two emerging naval biofuels (camelina-JP5 and Fischer-Tropsch-F76) and their potential to exacerbate carbon steel corrosion in seawater incubations with and without a hydrocarbon-degrading sulfate-reducing...

This paper studied the effects of reinforcement corrosion on bond performance between rebar and concrete. Tests were carried out to evaluate the degradation of bond between reinforcing steel and concrete for different corrosion levels of reinforcing steel. A series of 20 specimens of different concrete strength with various reinforcing steel corrosion levels were designed and manufactured. Each...

The filling of strand corrosion products during concrete crack propagation is investigated experimentally in the present paper. The effects of stirrups on the filling of corrosion products and concrete cracking are clarified. A prediction model of crack width is developed incorporating the filling proportion of corrosion products and the twisting shape of the strand. Experimental data on cracki...

The corrosion of Ag in an atmosphere of ozone and humidity with or without irradiation by ultraviolet (UV) light was investigated. A modified coulometric reduction technique was used, substituting sulphate solution for chloride solution, to prevent the spontaneous transformation of silver oxide corrosion product to chloride in the reduction solution. The presence of both ozone and UV radiation ...

ost assets depreciate, losing value over time as a result of wear and tear, age, or obsolescence. Corrosion, like depreciation, results in the often hidden cost of a non-cash expense — measurable in terms of reduced operating life — that reduces the value of assets. Many engineers in the chemical process industries (CPI) see corrosion on a “straight-line basis” in terms of repair, maintenance a...
