The corrosion of aircraft costs the U.S. Department of Defense more than $20 billion annually and accounts for approximately 20% of all maintenance. Coatings are the most effective way to protect aircraft, but they have a finite lifetime and must be maintained or replaced before the underlying substrate is damaged by corrosion. Current aircraft maintenance practices call for coating inspections and repairs based on elapsed time and not on measurements of coating health.

The corrosion is a spontaneous chemical reaction connected to heat exchangers and pipelines that degrades the strength and quality of utilized steel. The aggressive environment, which is ongoing, intense, and frequently difficult to totally prevent, is the key factor contributing to the metal's deterioration. Additionally, it demonstrates a serious economic problem that causes industrial operational assets to require expensive repairs, ruining the public space.

Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) is a failure mechanism that occurs in susceptible materials exposed to a corrosive environment and submitted to tensile stress above a certain threshold. In the presence of these combined factors, SCC can occur and potentially lead to the failure of an asset. This failure mechanism has been widely reported in several susceptible alloys of carbon steel, making SCC a considerable threat for pipelines in contact with corrosive soil.

Recent Advances in Hybrid Laser-Arc Welding of Thick Steel Plates

Product Number: MPWT19-15295

Author: Mohamed Wahba, Masami Mizutani, Seiji Katayama

Publication Date: 2019

$0.00

With the objective of reducing the number of welding passes in thick plate welding, hybrid laser-arc welding technique was utilized to one-pass weld 25mm thick steel plates. Butt joints were designed with a square groove and 2.5mm air gap. Either ceramic strip or submerged arc welding flux was used for joint backing. The joint gap was filled up with cut-wire particles of the same chemical compositions as those of the arc welding filler wire. Cut-wire particles were inserted to protect the backing material from direct interaction with the laser irradiation. Welding parameters were optimized to obtain full penetration joints without damaging the backing material. Square groove butt joints of 25mm thickness were successfully welded in one welding pass. Similarly, 50 mm thick square groove butt joints could be double-side welded

In a society that strives to reduce its environmental impact, water-based coatings are growing in popularity. Historically, solvent-based coatings have out-performed water-based coatings in some service environments, but advances in coating technology have allowed for higher-performing water-based alternatives on the market. This paper will discuss some of the previous misconceptions surrounding water-based coatings and how newer formulations of these materials can provide a multitude of advantages over their solvent-based counterparts. Also, much discussion will be laid out as to how these materials can provide a more sustainable solution while not compromising service life. After reading this paper, the reader will have a greater understanding of these next generation water-based coatings and their benefits. In addition, there will be an in-depth discussion on some of the applications where these materials are now appropriate, including potable water immersion service and exterior environments where top level color and gloss retention performance is coveted.

Recent Advances On The Influence Of Microstructural Characteristics On Corrosion Resistance In H2SO4 Of Anodized Titanium

Industrial usage of Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (PEO) has grown consistently in recent years, thanks to the improved characteristics imparted to the oxide film in terms of surface adhesion, hardness, crystallinity, uniformity, and corrosion resistance. The metallic substrate is not subjected to elevated temperature and the overall equipment complexity is relatively simple, making the technique a good candidate for surface functionalization. In PEO treatments, high voltages are employed (~ 150-750 V 1) allowing for the formation of an insulating, or at least semiconductive, oxide layer that’s limits ion transport responsible for the initial coating growth. Beyond the spark voltage (prerequisite the enter the PEO regime) oxidation does not occur only as the result of a continuous flow of ions but rather it takes place after the cooling of a plasma discharge.

Recent Developments in the Worldwide Use - Performance of Hot-Dip Galvanized (HDG) Rebar

Product Number: 51324-20825-SG

Author: John Krzywicki

Publication Date: 2024

$40.00

This presentation and accompanying research summary demonstrate hot-dip galvanized (HDG) rebar’s performance protecting reinforced concrete structures and highlight technical research confirming its chloride durability in concrete via a study conducted by the Galvanizers Association of Australia (GAA). The resulting study also produced a model for determining chloride penetration in concrete and concludes that reduced concrete cover can be considered in structures that use HDG rebar, which has a substantial impact on sustainability (raw material usage and length of service). Along with this new research on chloride durability modeling, a review of recent case studies, inspections and installations confirms its longevity and growing popularity amongst specifiers to provide long term corrosion resistance in concrete.

Recent Failures Of Accelerated High Temperature Sulfidation Corrosion In The Oil Refining Industry

High temperature sulfidation is one of the oldest damage mechanisms in the refining process such as crude distillation unit, vacuum distillation unit and hydroprocessing unit. Since corrosion proceeds to general corrosion and occurs in a high temperature environment, it is a type of corrosion that can lead to a large fire explosion when a leak occurs.

Recent Progress in Corrosion Protection of Braking Systems

The manuscript proposes an advanced study of the corrosion resistance of anodic layers obtained by anodizing different Aluminum/Silicon (AlSi) alloys, typically used in the manufacturing of braking systems. Metallography, scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) measurements and electrochemical noise (EN) -based methods allow to depict the complex interplay between the microstructure of each investigated alloy and their corrosion resistance after anodizing. It is demonstrated that a high Silicon concentration in pristine alloys can: a) modulate the impedance of the obtained anodic layers; and b) generate local thickness variations of the coatings with an associated reduction of the corrosion resistance. In addition, electrochemical noise measurements (ENM) demonstrate that the corrosion resistance and anodizability of the proposed materials follow the order EN AW-6082 > EN AC-42200 > EN AC-43200.

It is commonly known that 75% of coating failures can be attributed to improper surface preparation. This figure shows how challenging it is to get this step right. However, education can improve this number. The best learning comes from studying specific cases which illustrate challenging corrosion protection problems. In this paper, we present several examples of recent projects such as tank linings, tank floating roofs, paper mills, and upstream maintenance projects to show that optimizing surface preparation was a key step in success for the owner and contractor alike. In each of these cases, creative ideas and new technology helped achieve success. We will discuss these projects from the perspective of the coating manufacturer, equipment manufacturer and additional technology used to improve the coatings job.

Redefining Conventional, with Biobased Alternatives

Corrosion mitigation is fundamentally a practice of material stewardship, it prolongs service life and safety of both equipment and infrastructure. Conventional corrosion mitigation techniques often diminish these benefits by sourcing and employing harmful chemicals. However, there are alternatives; green chemistries are being utilized in corrosion mitigation techniques, from rust preventatives made with renewable feedstocks and those certified Biobased by the USDA BioPreferred Program, to environmentally friendly disposal pathways. With thoughtful designs, Circular Economy principles can be incorporated into the field of corrosion management. In this paper, a range of corrosion management products, and case histories of their successful adoption will be presented. Some highlights include: The replacement of a solvent-based rust preventative (RP) with a biobased and water-based RP, the use of a canola-oil based rust preventative as a long-term protection solution at a major automotive firm, as well as the use of a biobased vapor-phase corrosion preventative which replaces traditional petroleum-based foam.
