In this paper, the corrosion residual strength of the AZ91D magnesium alloy in the presence of sulfate-reducing bacteria is studied. In the experiments, the chemical composition of corrosion film was analyzed by a scanning electron microscope with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. In addition, a series of instruments, such as scanning electronic microscope, pH-meter and an AG-10TA materials...

This paper studies the corrosion behavior of B10 copper-nickel alloy in marine environment. Accelerated degradation test under marine environmental conditions was designed and performed based on the accelerated testing principle and the corrosion degradation mechanism. With the prolongation of marine corrosion time, the thickness of Cu₂O film increased gradually. Its corrosion product was Cu₂(O...

Since many household systems are fabricated out of metallic materials, changes to the household environment that accelerate corrosion rates will increase the frequency of failures in these systems. Recently, it has been reported that homes constructed with imported wallboard have increased failure rates in appliances, air conditioner heat exchanger coils, and visible corrosion on electrical wir...

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 ...

Acoustic emission with near-field detection and optical video microscope monitoring was proposed to investigate the pitting corrosion caused by a small magnesium-chloride droplet. Four types of the detected waveforms were characterized by the wavelet analysis to investigate the corrosion of work-hardened SUS304 stainless steel. After high-activity AE signals observed, the corrosion product shee...

2-phosphonobutane-1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid is(pbtc) a member of phosphonate family, and used as corrosion and scale inhibitor in cooling water systems. phosphonocarboxylates as a member of organophosphorus compounds have c-p and p-o bonds in their structures. pbtc is mainly used as carbonate scale inhibitor (caco3), sulphate scale inhibitor (caso4), corrosion inhibitor of low alloyed steel, eff...

The corrosion of carbon steel in the chloride-dominated groundwaters anticipated inside a failed spent fuel waste container has been studied in the presence of small concentrations of added hydrogen peroxide. Solutions with peroxide concentrations in the micro-molar range were found to accelerate steel corrosion slightly leading to the formation of Fe-containing corrosion product deposits but n...
