Corrosion and Materials Degradation, Volume 3, Issue 1

A realistic forecast of the impact of CaCl₂-blended acrylic polymer (CP) emulsions on steel reinforcement corrosion is difficult without a detailed study. This is traceable to the conflicting effects of cement additives on the chloride threshold valu...

The corrosion resistance of the AW7075 alloy after RRA treatment was evaluated. The corrosion rate in the NSS test was assessed and the electrochemical parameters were determined. The results were compared with the results obtained for the alloy subj...

Offshore installations, e.g., offshore wind turbines and pipelines, are exposed to various mechanical loads due to wind or waves and corrosive loads such as seawater or mist. ZnAl-based thermal sprayed coatings, often in conjunction with organic coat...

The main objective of this study was to assess the influence of salt concentration on the corrosion behaviour, including the role of hydrodynamic conditions, of two broad classes of ferrous engineering materials. These are comprised of alloys, typifi...

The present work studies the effect of fly ash content (0–25 wt.%), pH (8, 12.5), and steel type (316L, 304L) on the cyclic polarization of stainless steel rebars in electrolytes, simulating fresh concrete exposed to acid rain and corroded concrete c...

Corrosion of mooring chains is regarded as one of main threats to the offshore mooring systems. Localized corrosion is even more dangerous than uniform corrosion because it may not show significant mass loss but it can cause stress concentration and...

The cement industry gains increasing public attention because of the high CO₂ emissions for which it is accountable. One approach to improve the carbon footprint of cement production is the development of alternative binders, which can be produced wi...

Rigorous peer-reviews are the basis of high-quality academic publishing [...]

The corrosion processes of carbon steel immersed in natural seawater are influenced by microorganisms due to important biological activity. An analysis of the corrosion product layers formed on carbon steel coupons in natural or artificial seawater r...
