The atmospheric corrosion of carbon steel is an extensive topic that has been studied over the years by many researchers. However, until relatively recently, surprisingly little attention has been paid to the action of marine chlorides. Corrosion in coastal regions is a particularly relevant issue due the latter's great importance to human society. About half of the world's population lives in ...

a constant problem in the production, maintenance, and use of agricultural pesticides, is their physical-chemical corrosive properties in contact with machines and equipment. the present study attempted to increase the corrosion resistance of steel parts to agricultural pesticide with the application of appropriate thin tio2 nanoparticle coatings. this coating was applied on mild steel coupons ...

The impact of pre-corrosion on the performance an imidazoline-based corrosion inhibitor was evaluated with respect to inhibition uniform and localised in CO2-environments. Corrosion protection found be a function two factors, adsorption/film formation presence products. This effect most significant continuous FeCO3-rich layer high coverage steel surface, resulting only providing ?25 % overall a...

A program on coal-ash corrosion is being conducted at Argonne National Laboratory to evaluate the performance of several structural alloys in the presence of mixtures of synthetic coal ash, alkali sulfates, and alkali chlorides. Candidate alloys are also exposed in a small-scale coal-fired combustor at the National Energy Technology Laboratory in Pittsburgh. Experiments in the present program, ...

A program on fireside corrosion is being conducted at Argonne National Laboratory to evaluate the performance of several structural alloys in the presence of mixtures of synthetic coal ash, alkali sulfates, and alkali chlorides. Candidate alloys are also exposed in a small-scale coal-fired combustor at the National Energy Technology Laboratory in Pittsburgh. Experiments in the present program, ...
