in the present work the effects of plasma nitridization on the passivation behavior of aisi 316l was investigated. to do this; nitriding treatments were carried out at 420°c for 1, 2, 4 and 16 hours. the phase composition and structure of the nitrided layer were studied by low angle x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. the hardness of samples also was evaluated by vickers microha...

Abstract The drastic distortion of potentiodynamic polarization curves measured at high potential scan rates prevents the extraction accurate kinetic parameters. In this work, we start by measuring AA7075 ranging from 0.167 mV·s ?1 to 100 , in an acidic 0.62 M NaH 2 PO 4 solution and a near-neutral 3.5 wt% NaCl solution. Changes are observed not only different electrolytes but also between repl...

Brass used in heat exchanger is corroded in industrial water. The used inhibitor is extracted from horse tail herb added in different concentrations and temperature to industrial water in which heat exchanger if exposed to these conditions. Brass is studied under the above conditions using potentiodynamic polarization, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction. Potentiodynamic po...

the 17-4ph alloy is a martensitic stainless steel with 3–5 wt% cu, strengthened by the precipitation hardening. due to excellent mechanical properties, corrosion resistance and ease of heat treatment, this alloy has unique applications in nuclear power plants and marine constructions. in this paper, the influence of ageing heat treatment, solution annealing followed by ageing at 480, 550 and 62...

Piperazine and its derivatives such as phosphates, carbonates, benzoates, cinnamate and maleate were developed and investigated as vapor phase corrosion inhibitors by weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization methods for mild steel. All of these compounds have shown good inhibition efficiency for mild steel after 30 days under continuous condensation test (CT). The potentiodynamic polarization ...

This paper focused on the characterization of electrochemical behavior of a martensitic stainless steel in the acidic solutions. For this purpose, electrochemical parameters were derived from potentiodynamic polarization, Mott Schottky analysis and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. The potentiodynamic polarization results showed that corrosion current density of AISI 420 ...

The electrochemical behavior and the corrosion rate of aluminum electrode have been evaluated in different pH solutions in absence and presence of aggressive anion, using open-circuit potential measurements and potentiodynamic polarization technique. Also, the corrosion inhibiting effects of ortho, meta and para toludine in a solution of pH4 containing 0.1M sodium chloride was investigated usin...
