Relation between Metallic Corrosion and Corrosive Environments

Corrosion of Metallic Biomaterials in Cell Culture Environments

41 Metallic materials are used in biomedical devices for various parts of the human body (Fig. 1). The implanted material is exposed to body fluids, such as intercellular fluid and blood depending on the surrounding tissue. Body fluid consists of inorganic ions (Na+, Cl-, Ca2+, HxPO4 etc.), amino acids, proteins, and organic acids. The pH of body fluid is buffered at 7.15~7.35 but it decreases ...

Thermal Sprayed Coatings Used Against Corrosion and Corrosive Wear

Coatings have historically been developed to provide protection against corrosion and erosion that is to protect the material from chemical and physical interaction with its environment. Corrosion and wear problems are still of great relevance in a wide range of industrial applications and products as they result in the degradation and eventual failure of components and systems both in the proc...

Corrosion Inhibition: Synergistic Influence of Gluconates on Mild Steel in Different Corrosive Environments. Synergetic Interactions of Corrosion Inhibition Tendency of Two Different Gluconates on Mild Steel in Different Corrosive Environments

Susceptibility of mild steel to corrosion attack has restricted its industrial applications, despite its numerous advantageous characteristics. Comparison of the inhibitive tendency of a mixture of zinc gluconate (ZG) and ferrous gluconate (FG) on the corrosion behavior of mild steel in acid and saline media was investigated using electrochemical and weight loss techniques. The FG:ZG ratio was ...

from historical facts to geo-political realities: relation between turkey and armenia ( 1915 – 2010)

armenias geopolitics and its historical experience have had a determining impact on the character of its foreign policy .present-day armenia is a small, landlocked country with _11,620 square miles area armenias landlocked nature makes it dependent on the benevolence of its neighbors for access to the outside world a fact that gives it a sense of isolation and vulnerability. as it was indic...
