The inhibitive action of extract of curry leaves (Murraya koenigii) on carbon steel in 1N HCl has been studied using weight loss, gasometric studies and electrochemical polarization and AC impedance measurements. The effect of temperature on the corrosion behaviour of carbon steel in 1N HCl with optimum concentration of inhibitors was studied in the temperature ranging from 30 -80 ̊C. The protec...

The causes and the prevention of carbon steel corrosion in amine systems are reviewed. The corrosive agents are acid gases, oxygen, heat stable salts, amine degradation products, and, in refineries, gas contaminants such as ammonia and hydrogen cyanide. Corrosion mechanisms are provided for carbon steel exposed to amine solutions and for amine regenerator overhead systems containing aqueous con...

Article history: Received 10.9.2012 Received in revised form 10.12.2012 Accepted 10.12.2012 27SiMn steels with different original structures were zero time holding quenched after pretreatments including general quenching and normalizing, respectively, then their tensile strength and hardness were determined and also microstructures were analyzed.. The experimental results show that thus quenche...

Using electromechanical technique, various conductive carbon fibers and graphite and steel filaments/epoxy micro-composites were evaluated by measuring electrical resistivity to investigate the interfacial properties including the microfailure modes and interfiber distance effect with a aid of acoustic emission (AE). Micromechanical techniques, such as pull-out and fragmentation tests, and elec...

Allegheny Ludlum Type 316Ti (UNS S31635) is a titanium stabilized version of Type 316 molybdenum-bearing austenitic stainless steel. It is also known as DIN/EN designation No. 1.4571. The Type 316 alloys are more resistant to general corrosion and pitting/crevice corrosion than the conventional chromium-nickel austenitic stainless steels such as Type 304. They also offer higher creep, stress-ru...

a comparison between design codes i.e. aci and aisc-lrfd in evaluation of flexural strength of concrete filled steel tubular columns (cfts) is examined. for this purpose an analytical study on the response of cfts under axial-flexural loading is carried using three-dimensional finite elements with elasto-plastic model for concrete with cracking and crushing capability and elastoplastic kinemati...
