The corrosion inhibitive action of flower extracts of Clitoria ternata flower on mild steel corrosion in 0.5 M H2SO4 solution was studied using weight loss method, potentiodynamic polarization and EIS measurements. The results obtained indicate that the extracts functioned as good inhibitors in 0.5 M H2SO4 solution. Inhibition efficiency was found to increase with extract concentration. The ads...

The objectives of this study were to investigate the corrosion behavior of conventional and self-ligating stainless steel brackets and the surface structural changes in response to salad dressing. Damon, In-Ovation,Smart clip, Discovery, OMNI and Masel brackets were all included in the study. For the control group, the brackets were placed in Petri dishes with Potassium Ferrocyanide (Fe [CN]6K4...

A mechanistic model is developed to predict the general corrosion rate at the top of a gas pipeline. This model covers the three main processes involved in the Top of the Line Corrosion (TLC) phenomena: the dropwise condensation, the behavior of the chemistry in the condensed water and the corrosion at the steel surface. The dropwise condensation process is modeled based on the heat and mass tr...

The behavior of corroded steel–concrete composite beams under hogging moment was studied by experimental investigation and theoretical analysis. A total of eight specimens, six of which had corroded shear studs, were tested. The corrosion rate of studs ranged from 0 to approximately 50%. The constant-current accelerated corrosion method was adopted to accelerate the corrosion process. The loadi...

The presented paper studies the effect of the casting technology on the corrosion resistance of Co-Cr-Mo alloy. The investigations were conducted on a commercial alloy with the brand name ARGELOY N.P SPECIAL (Co-Cr-Mo) produced by Argen as well as the same alloy melted and cast by the lost wax casting method performed by a dental technician. The corrosion behavior of the dental alloys in an art...

The corrosion inhibitive action of oxystelma esculentum stem on mild steel corrosion in 0.5 M H2SO4 solution was studied using weight loss method, potentiodynamic polarization and EIS measurements. The results obtained indicate that the extracts functioned as good inhibitors in 0.5 M H2SO4 solution. Inhibition efficiency was found to increase with extract concentration. The adsorption of consti...

The morphology and corrosion behavior of electrochemically prepared Ag nanostructures (NSs) have been examined in the absence and presence of potassium citrate, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and polyoxyethylene(20) sorbitan monolaurate (Tween-20). These additives give rise to morphologically distinct Ag NSs. The presence of citrate increases the dissolution of Ag and creates finer nanostructured A...

nanosized tio2 particles were prepared by sol–gel method. the tio2 particles were co-deposited with chromium using electrodeposition technique. in investigating of coating surfaces by scanning electron microscope (sem), the results showed that the morphology of the coating surface was changed by adding tio2 nanoparticles to the chromium coating. the corrosion behavior of the coatings was assess...

in this study, the corrosion resistance of a bituminous coating reinforced with different ratios ofnanoclay pigment was studied. to make nanocomposite coatings, 2, 3, and 4 wt.% of clay (cloisitena+) were incorporated into water emulsified bitumen. the coatings were applied to steel 37. opticalmicroscopy and x-ray diffraction (xrd) were used to characterize the nanocomposite structure. inorder ...

The inhibition behavior of N,N′-bis(2,4,6-trihydroxyacetophenone)-propandiimine (THAPP) as an environmentally friendly Salen Ligand on the corrosion inhibition of mild steel was studied in alkaline solution (pH=10) containing 3% NaCl. Measurements were carried out using electrochemical and surface techniques. The experimental results suggested that this compound was an ...
