Abstract Bacillus cereus ( B. ) is observed to have varying effects on the stress corrosion cracking (SCC) sensitivity of different microstructures in simulated heat-affected zone (HAZ) X80 steel. At open circuit potential (OCP), SCC increased from 3.40–7.49% an abiotic medium 10.22–15.17% a biotic medium. −0.9 V (SCE), it 22.81–26.51% 35.76–39.60%. The increment upon exposure was highest coars...

Abstract The protection of marine materials against corrosion using bacterial biofilms is a promising strategy. However, little known about the mechanisms this attractive prevention method. In work, behaviors X80 carbon steel (CS) in presence three different Vibrio species were studied. results demonstrated that all spp. displayed significant with weight loss reduction up to 68%. Moreover, thei...
