The present study is aimed to conduct the experiments in various corrosive environments at various temperatures and constant partial pressures of carbon dioxide (CO2) under dynamic condition to understand the basic mechanism and corrosion resistance of carbon steel. Usually, API grade steels are used in the pipeline for carrying the crude oil and gas. Corrosion problems constitute the major ope...

Under the circumstances of low-carbon economy, the theoretical applications of the green supply chain management of steel and iron manufacture are to reform and innovate the present manufacturing process, enhance the controlling and reclaiming, and recycling using of the waste steel and iron, steel slag, and dust emissions, establish the green supply chain structure oriented to the cycle of “re...

535] A new and unique building vibration isolation pad has been developed utilizing alternating layers of elastomer and carbon fiber mesh. The carbon mesh reinforcement provides several distinct advantages over traditional steel plate reinforcement. Lower natural frequencies and/or smaller operating heights can be obtained for a given load. In addition, the carbon mesh forms both chemical and m...

The lack of complete understanding of the substrate effects on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) growth poses a lot oftechnical challenges. Here, we report the direct growth of nanostructures such as the CNTs on stainless steel 304and brass substrates using thermal chemical vapor deposition (TCVD) process with C2H2 gas as carbon sourceand hydrogen as supporting gas mixed in Ar gas flow. We used an especi...

The epoxy coatings containing multi-walled carbon nanotube/ poly ortho aminophenol nanocomposite were prepared and used as anticorrosive coatings. The nanocomposites with different contents of carbon nanotube were synthesized in a solution of sodium dodecyl sulfate and ammonium peroxy disulfate as a surfactant and an oxidant, respectively. The morphology and structural properties were confirmed...

Stainless steels have good corrosion resistance in many environments but welding or aging can decrease their resistance. This work focused on the effect of aging time and ultrasonic nano-crystal surface modification on the passivation behavior of 316L stainless steel. In the case of slightly sensitized 316L stainless steel, increasing the aging time drastically decreased the pitting potential, ...

The unique properties of air-cooled bainitic steels have been described. A series of Mn containing air-cooled bainitic steels invented by authors is presented in this paper: including low carbon granular bainitic steels, low carbon grain-boundary allotriomorphic ferrite/granular bainite duplex steels, medium and medium high carbon bainite/martensite duplex steel, and low carbon carbide free bai...

Using C2H2, 112 and As gases at 550'C, carbon nanotubes were fabricated on the surfaces of twosubstrates coated by nano thin layers of metal catalysts by DC magnetron sputtering. AYStamless steel andFe/CteAl, by thermal chemical vapor deposition (TCVD) The surface properties of the substrates wereparticularly investigated, and the effect of treatment of the substrates on the CNT's growth is cri...

Purpose: The aim of the paper is to design heat treatment conditions of dual-phase steel and to determine their influence on the structure and mechanical properties of steel. Design/methodology/approach: The heat treatment of the C-Mn steel in order to obtain a dual-phase ferritic – martensitic structure of desirable phase fractions was realized. To investigate the influence of heat treatment p...
