The corrosion behavior of both tin-plated carbon steel and aluminum (Al 1100) in NaCl solutions were studied using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The study objectives were to compare their corrosion behavior in concentrated brine solution, establish the equivalent electrical circuit diagrams of their corrosion phenomena, and consequently develop steady-state corrosion models for ...

Corrosion is the process of degradation or failure of a material resulting from a chemical reaction between the material and its surrounding environment. It is an indispensible research area in material science and engineering, because corrosion resistance characterizes the stability or durability of a material, which is one of the most important material performances in application. Compared w...

The early validation of a 20 year service integrity for the bonded interfaces in low cost solar arrays is an important requirement in the Low Cost So 1 ar Array ( LSA) project. An atmospheric corrosion model has been developed and verified by five months of corrosion rate and cl fmatology data acquired at Mead, Nebraska LSA test site. Atmospheric corrosion monitors (ACMs) installed at the Mead ...

The objective of the work was to undertake a literature review on the subject of corrosion inhibition in the offshore oil and gas industry to understand the current issues. The application of chemical corrosion inhibitors can significantly reduce the rate of corrosion of carbon steel pipelines due to the presence of CO2 and/or H2S. An inhibited corrosion rate of 0.1 mm/year can typically be ach...

Recent advances in characterization tools, computational capabilities, and theories have created opportunities for advancement in understanding of solid-fluid interfaces at the nanoscale in corroding metallic systems. The Faraday Discussion on Corrosion Chemistry in 2015 highlighted some of the current needs, gaps and opportunities in corrosion science. Themes were organized into several hierar...

A series of surveys on the cost and durability anti-corrosion coatings for steel bridges used in Japan was performed. The life cycle during their design service periods examined under different corrosion environments. combinations heavy-duty paint coating system as initial same repair showed lowest when short interval applied work. metal might be reasonable severe environments due to high durab...

The main purpose of this paper is to give an overview of some recent progress made in modelling of deterioration of reinforced concrete structures. The review is not claimed to be complete. It is based on some of the author’s contributions in this research area especially the papers (Thoft-Christensen 2001) and (ThoftChristensen, Svensson and Frandsen 2005). In the paper, corrosion of reinforce...

subsea structures such as manifolds, line pipes and flow lines are important investments. also because of the sensitivity of environmental issues, corrosion of these structures is of vital importance. subsea corrosion management is different from on-shore and shallow water off-shore corrosion management in mainly three factors: materials, corrosion management practice and cathodic protection. t...
