Corrosion Inhibitors

Used to protect materials, corrosion inhibitors are chemical substances that when present in small quantities inhibit and either minimize or prevent corrosive action.
Corrosion inhibitors are measured in regards to their efficiency and can be easily calculation by making a direct comparison of corrosion rate with and without the presence of the inhibitor.

Corrosion of Aluminum and Aluminum Alloys

Aluminum owes its excellent corrosion resistance and its usage as one of the primary metals of commerce to the barrier oxide film that is bonded strongly to its surface and, that if damaged, re-forms immediately in most environments. On a surface freshly abraded and then exposed to air, the barrier oxide film is only 1 nm thick but is highly effective in protecting the aluminum from corrosion....

Corrosion of Aluminum and Its Alloys: Forms of Corrosion

Corrosion is a significant concern in the field of materials science, particularly for aluminum and its alloys, which are widely used due to their lightweight and strength. This article explores the various forms of corrosion affecting aluminum, including atmospheric corrosion, uniform corrosion, galvanic corrosion, and more specialized types such as pitting, crevice, and intergranular corrosion.

Corrosion of Carbon Steel

This comprehensive article examines the corrosion behavior of carbon steel, the most widely used engineering material globally. It explores various types of corrosion affecting carbon steel, including atmospheric, aqueous, and soil corrosion, while analyzing the impact of environmental factors and alloying elements on corrosion resistance.

Corrosion of Magnesium and Magnesium Alloys

This comprehensive analysis examines the corrosion behavior of magnesium and its alloys, focusing on the crucial factors affecting their degradation in various environments. The study explores the impact of chemical composition, environmental conditions, and surface treatments on corrosion resistance. Special attention is given to the effects of heavy-metal impurities, atmospheric conditions, and chemical environments.

Corrosion of Maraging Steels

Maraging steels can offer good corrosion resistance in particularly tough environments such as industrial and marine atmospheres due to the characteristic precipitation hardening of their intermetallic compounds.
With use in advanced technologies and in sectors such as aerospace, nuclear and gas turbine maraging steels are emerging as an influential material in these specific applications.
