The main problem affecting the life of refractory linings in furnaces is alkaline corrosion formed during biomass combustion, especially systems with SiO2–Al2O3. This effect very intensive compared to using conventional technologies designed for burning traditional fuels. study focuses on development a new type andalusite material higher resistance K2CO3 and fly ash after combustion. original l...

This article analyzes the mechanism of protective layer formation under action alkali in a refractory castable when ground quartz sand (GQS) is used as an admixture to produce conventional castables (CC) and medium cement (MCC). It was found that, independently composition, addition GQS (2.5%) reduces degree K2CO3 dissolution at high temperature, released potassium reacts with silica forms visc...

BACKGROUND Previous studies regarding modular head-neck taper corrosion were largely based on cobalt chrome (CoCr) alloy femoral heads. Less is known about head-neck taper corrosion with ceramic femoral heads. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES We asked (1) whether ceramic heads resulted in less taper corrosion than CoCr heads; (2) what device and patient factors influence taper fretting corrosion; and (3) w...

tarnish and corrosion behavior of three commercial dental amalgams namely am.1, am.2, am.3, have been investigated by utilizing in vitro tests. the corrosion and/or dissolution rate of the three dental amalgams were studied in 0.9 wt% nacl solution, artificial saliva and ringers solution. potentiodynamic polarization technique was employed to study cathodic and anodic polarization behavior, fro...

causes many failures in chemical process installations. These failures generate high costs, therefore an effective corrosion monitoring system obtrudes. This paper focuses on the classification of the most important corrosion processes: pitting, stress corrosion cracking (SCC) and general corrosion. The computations and algorithms involved in the classification of the corrosion time series are ...

Corrosion is one of the major reasons for wear and tear of equipments. It is also responsible for reducing the life of equipments. Many accidents occur because of failure of pipelines due to corrosion. There are many methods to minimize corrosion. Cathodic protection, use of inhibitors, use of anticorrosive coatings is few methods used for this purpose. The presence of moisture in the atmospher...

A 2-D model for the corrosion of spent nuclear fuel inside a failed nuclear waste container has been modified to determine the influence of various redox processes occurring within fractures in the fuel. The corrosion process is driven by reaction of the fuel with the dominant α radiolysis product, H2O2. A number of reactions are shown to moderate or suppress the corrosion rate, including H2O2 ...

The withdrawal of effective but toxic corrosion inhibitors has provided an impetus for the discovery of new, benign organic compounds to fill that role. Concurrently, developments in the high-throughput synthesis of organic compounds, the establishment of large libraries of available chemicals, accelerated corrosion inhibition testing technologies, and the increased capability of machine learni...

A cyclic wet/dry accelerated corrosion test was used to compare the corrosion behavior of medium-Mn steel and Q345 steel. In terms of scanning electron microscope (SEM), using X-ray diffraction (XRD), electron probe microanalysis (EPMA), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and analysis of the corrosion process, the results showed that the medium-Mn steel did not exhibit higher corrosion res...
