Corrosion

During the past 15 years of R&D program in seawater desalination at KISR, many metals and alloys have been studied for their corrosion behavior. Stainless steels, nickel-base alloys, titanium among the groups of alloys that were evaluated. Linear polarization, cyclic polarization, open-circuit poten

The paper describes a fundamental investigation of the corrosion behaviour of Cu-Ni-Fe-Mn alloys, containing nominally 10% Ni and 30% Ni, in distilled water. The study involved exposure of specimens to distilled water (1.5–7 µS/cm) at 20–80°C with and without injected carbon dioxide. At 20°C upon in

Stainless steels are the largest tonnage alloy materials used for industrial and domestic purposes. The primary property, which determines their use in many applications, is their corrosion resistance in a wide variety of aqueous environments. There are many varieties of stainless steel, but in all
