Borated water leakage through spent fuel pools (SFPs) at pressurized water reactors is a concern because it could cause corrosion of reinforcement steel in the concrete structure and compromise the integrity of the structure. Because corrosion rate of carbon steel in concrete in the presence of boric acid is lacking in published literature and available data are equivocal on the effect of boric...

nowadays, magnesia carbon refractories are very important for the iron and steel industries. it is dueto their unique properties, such as low wet ability with melt iron and steel. therefore, it is importantto extend the life of the refractory. in this research, the effect of calcined alumina and nano carbon onmechanical strength and corrosion resistance against slag in magnesia carbon refractor...

the formation of nano/ultrafine grained ferrite in low carbon steels containing different amounts of niobiumwas investigated using thermomechanical treatment which consisted of annealing of 85% cold rolled martensite with different parameters. the specimens were characterized by optical and scanning electron microscopy and vickers hardness test. a lamellar dislocation cell structure was formed ...
