This paper analyzes the corrosion resistance and mechanical microstructural properties of a welded joint ductile cast iron using AISI316L stainless steel as filler material three different heat treatments: preheating at 250 450 ºC post-weld annealing treatment. The results show presence ledeburite interface between weld bead affected zone root pass, along with loss strength ductility when weldi...

Corrosion rate is known to be a factor affecting the distribution of current in cathodic protection (CP) applications. This paper demonstrates effect different corrosion rates embedded steel concrete on polarization and during CP application. A specimen was cast with separate bars at fixed distance from centralised anode. The are sections containing admixed chloride concentrations create varyin...

The microstructural characteristics of cast Mg-x Sn (x = 0.5, 1.0, 2.5 wt.% and 4.0 wt.%) alloys were systematically evaluated, as well the electrochemical behavior discharge properties in 3.5 NaCl solution. micro-morphological results show that grains are obviously refined Mg2Sn phase distribution is uniform with increase content. In four tested alloys, effect content on corrosion resistance w...
