Metal degradation due to corrosion is a major challenge in most industries, and its control prevention has maintain balance between efficiency cost-effectiveness. The rising concern over environmental damage greatly influenced this domain, as should comply with the waste regulations of different regions. In respect, fundamental question which modern synthetic materials are more viable from poin...

causes many failures in chemical process installations. These failures generate high costs, therefore an effective corrosion monitoring system obtrudes. This paper focuses on the classification of the most important corrosion processes: pitting, stress corrosion cracking (SCC) and general corrosion. The computations and algorithms involved in the classification of the corrosion time series are ...

A 2-D model for the corrosion of spent nuclear fuel inside a failed nuclear waste container has been modified to determine the influence of various redox processes occurring within fractures in the fuel. The corrosion process is driven by reaction of the fuel with the dominant α radiolysis product, H2O2. A number of reactions are shown to moderate or suppress the corrosion rate, including H2O2 ...

The withdrawal of effective but toxic corrosion inhibitors has provided an impetus for the discovery of new, benign organic compounds to fill that role. Concurrently, developments in the high-throughput synthesis of organic compounds, the establishment of large libraries of available chemicals, accelerated corrosion inhibition testing technologies, and the increased capability of machine learni...

A cyclic wet/dry accelerated corrosion test was used to compare the corrosion behavior of medium-Mn steel and Q345 steel. In terms of scanning electron microscope (SEM), using X-ray diffraction (XRD), electron probe microanalysis (EPMA), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and analysis of the corrosion process, the results showed that the medium-Mn steel did not exhibit higher corrosion res...

Introduction Reliable estimates indicate that corrosion of metals costs the US economy almost $300 billion per year or about 4% of the GNP. Corrosion is a pervasive problem that affects almost all sectors of the economy including transportation (bridges, automobiles, aircraft, ships, pipelines, etc.), energy (power plants, petrochemical industries etc.) and defense (naval applications, aging ai...
