Titanium and its alloys have been widely used as implant materials due to their excellent mechanical property and biocompatibility. In the present study, the effect of glucose concentration on corrosion behavior of pure titanium TA2 in Hanks' simulated body fluid is investigated by the electrochemical impedance spectrum (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization methods. The range of glucose concen...

This paper reviews recent developments in the prediction of the likely future corrosion losses and of the maximum pit depth for steels exposed to marine environments. A robust mathematical model based on corrosion science principles and calibrated for immersion conditions to an extensive range of literature and new data is described. The model has provided explanations for the effects of steel ...

Culture-independent investigations of the bacterial diversity and activity in district heating systems with and without corrosion did not make it possible to relate one group of microorganisms with the observed corrosion. Fluorescence in situ hybridization by oligonucleotide probes revealed the dominance of beta-proteobacteria, sulphate reducing prokaryotes and alpha-proteobacteria. Analysis of...

As one of the main products produced by oral microorganisms, the role of lactic acid in the corrosion of titanium is very important. In this study, the corrosion behavior of titanium in artificial saliva with and without lactic acid were investigated by open-circuit potentials (OCPs), polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). OCP firstly increased with the amount of ...

Environment safety measurements have resulted in use of peroxide as bleaching chemical in place of chlorine and chlorine dioxide. Concentration and composition of chemicals affects corrosion aspects, the suitability of existing plant metallurgy and materials of construction of bleach plants. Accordingly long term immersion and electrochemical corrosion tests were conducted on stainless steel 30...

The corrosion resistance of high entropy alloys was reviewed in the present work. main focus to explore correlation between alloy composition, passive film stability and properties use this information develop a materials selection procedure based on Ashby approach. Corrosion current densities pitting potentials were design parameters used rank different alloys, careful examination data publish...

A composite material based on the WE43 magnesium alloy and containing nano-sized hardystonite ceramic particles was processed by means of friction stir processing (FSP). Compressive strength strain-at-failure increased as a combined result FSP nanoparticle reinforcement. The results potentiondynamic polarization electrochemical impedance spectroscopy tests indicated that corrosion mechanism nan...

Carbon steel is one of the most important and widely used structural materials, but preventing its corrosion remains a great challenge. Herein, metal–organic framework film consisting Zif-8 nanosheets array was prepared using one-step in situ growth method. This coating can effectively inhibit behavior low carbon seawater, resulting improved resistance (4010 ?·cm?2) current density (23 ?A·cm?2)...
