51317--9809-The Influence of Scale Formation on the AC Corrosion of API Grade X65 Pipeline Steel Under Cathodic Protection

Product Number: 51317--9809-SG

ISBN: 9809 2017 CP

Author: Elmira Ghanbari

Publication Date: 2017

$20.00

In a previous investigation, AC corrosion rate data from weight loss experiments was compared with the results from a model for AC corrosion developed using a modified Butler-Volmer approach. In the present work, an extension of this is presented to investigate the influence of scale formation on AC corrosion rates.
