a new anti-corrosion compound, melamine formaldehyde (mf), was formulated by the addition of proper amount of formaldehyde to melamine under specific conditions. this compound was mixed with a novel nano powder, which was extracted from corn cob ash containing sio2 particles, in order to improve its corrosion inhibition efficiency. this inhibitor provides a high level of protection for steel su...

Dental alloys as CoCrMo, SS 316L stainless steel and NiTi were electrochemically investigated in artificial Fusayama saliva, unmodified and modified with two different concentrations of natrium fluoride. Electrochemical tests include measurements of open circuit, measurements of linear polarization, potentiodinamic polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectra. The best electrochemi...

The corrosion behavior of mild steel in the presence of acetic acid (CH3COOH) and carbon dioxide (CO2) has been investigated using electrochemical techniques and weight-loss measurements. Electrochemical measurements have shown that the presence of acetic acid affects predominantly the cathodic reaction. The acetic acid effect is much more pronounced at elevated temperatures when catastrophic c...

in this investigation, attempts were directed to study the inhibitive effects of nitrite and phosphate base inhibitors for the carbon steel alloy samples, which are used in an acid gas treatment process (the sulfiran® solution), in fe-edta solution. electrochemical techniques, i.e. polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis), were used to evaluate the inhibition efficie...

this work is aimed to evaluate the role of nanoclay in the protective performance of an eco-friendly silane sol-gel layer applied on mild steel substrate in 0.1m sodium chloride solution. at the first step, the effect of ph of the silane solution, consisting of a mixture of γ-glycidoxypropiltrimethoxysilane and methyltriethoxysilane and tetraethoxysilane, on the coating performance was evaluate...

This Module consists of ten Web pages of required reading. The pagination is visible at the bottom of each page with direct links to adjacent pages. Introduction Thermodynamic principles can help explain a corrosion situation in terms of the stability of chemical species and reactions associated with corrosion processes. However, these principles cannot be used to predict corrosion currents or ...

the effect of mentha spicata l. extract on the corrosion behaviour of carbon steel in 1.0 m hcl solution was investigated using polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis) and electrochemical noise (en) techniques. the solution containing 250 ppm of the ethanolic solution of extract showed the highest inhibition efficiency (ie). the effect of temperature on the rate of corrosion ...

The corrosion inhibition properties of the benzothiazole BTH and benzotriazole BT inhibitors on the aluminum in 0.25 M HCl solution were studied. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy EIS, electrochemical noise EN and potentiodynamic polarization techniques were used to investigate the inhibition properties of the inhibitors. Scanning electron microscope SEM was also utilized in order to inves...

In this paper, the level of corrosion and the corrosion rate of 304 stainless steel induced by sulfatereducing bacteria were studied using electrochemical noise. The noise data were analyzed by time domain and frequency domain combined with the observations of optical microscope. And the corrosion was divided into four categories: passivation, pitting induction period, pitting and uniform corro...

this paper focused on the characterization of electrochemical behavior of a martensitic stainless steel inthe acidic solutions. for this purpose, electrochemical parameters were derived from potentiodynamicpolarization, mott schottky analysis and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis) techniques.the potentiodynamic polarization results showed that corrosion current density of aisi 420 sta...
