Laboratory exposure testing of carbon steel to water from different regions of the United States, with varying chemistries and chloride content. The results of chemical analyses conducted in the laboratory, including elemental analysis by SEM/EDS and analysis by x-ray diffraction are correlated to water chemistry.

In this study, enamel-coated steel pipe samples with various levels of cathodic protection were tested to investigate their impedance models by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS).
Cavitation erosion occurring on the rudder, which is induced by cavities from a rotating propeller due to the local pressure decrease of the fluid, has adverse effect on the operation of the vessel. Cavitation resistant paints have been highly considered to prevent the rudder from eroding, because of its relatively easy application and low working cost compared to other preventing methods.
Knowledge of the localized corrosion environment on a metal substrate can provide the critical link between atmospheric data and corrosion morphology and can enable the formation of a framework to predict service life as a function of environment. Over the last few decades the analytical characterization of bare metal surfaces undergoing atmospheric corrosion has improved, resulting in a more complete understanding and consideration of the environmental parameters involved. However, the corrosion processes and the role that the environmental parameters play in what is a multiphase system is rather complex involving chemical reactions and equilibria, ionic transport phenomena, and gaseous, aqueous and solid phases.
The Department of National Defence (DND) in Canada has implemented a revised maintenance program for aircraft weapon systems whose goal is to ensure that essential maintenance is accomplished and to assure the continued airworthiness of aeronautical products during in-service operation. The program especially affects legacy aircraft. A case study is being presented where an adhesion failure was detected during a scheduled inspection.
The Kentucky Transportation Center (KTC) conducted a study funded by the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) to assess the impact of chlorides on bridge coatings performance.
Nuclear energy currently contributes approximately 10 % of the worldwide energy mix.1 Nuclear energy generation is a form of low-carbon electricity, typically run as base-load, which alongside renewables can help nations toward climate change goals. Nuclear fission thermal reactors make up the majority of the reactors operating today. Nuclear fusion on the other hand is a promising alternative which produces less radioactive waste and does not have a reliance on the finite source of uranium fuel. Eurofer-97, a reduced activation ferritic-martensitic (RAFM) steel, will be used as a structural material for fusion reactors. The earliest literature reference to RAFM steels originated from 1994 by Abe et al.2 One option for the European demonstration fusion reactor (DEMO) is to use a water-cooled lead-lithium (PbLi) breeder blanket (WCLL BB) design for heat extraction. Breeder blankets will be used to generate a source of tritium, for the fusion reaction with deuterium.
A major fire in a Reactor Effluent Air Cooler (REAC) of the Hydrocracker Unit (HCU). Visual inspection was made on the failed portion. Metallurgical investigation, macrostructural and microstructural analysis, Scanning Electron Microscopy, and Energy Dispersive x-ray Spectroscopy was conducted on the failed air cooler.
Being one of the most applied nickel alloy in the oil and gas industry, the UNS N07718 (Alloy 718) is mainly composed by nickel, chromium, iron, molybdenum, niobium, titanium and aluminum. UNS N07718 is used in the solution annealed and precipitation hardened condition, where a complex microstructure is formed, which is responsible for its very good mechanical properties, as well as its cracking and corrosion resistance.
Of recent interest in the coatings world, is what to do when an abrasive blasted substrate does not meet the specified profile. For example, if the blast profile on a steel surface exceeds the specification limit, can the surface be reblasted with smaller abrasive blast media to reduce the profile into meeting the specification? At SSPC 2017 a paper was presented which addressed this scenario and found that the profile can be reduced using such reblasting process.
In this study, the effect on coating corrosion resistance after remediating an under-blasted then remediated to standard preparation is undertaken. In this work, it is proposed to under-blast one set of panels (~1 mil profile), blast to standard one set of panels (~3 mil profile) and remediate to standard a set of under-blasted panels (from ~1 mil profile to ~ 3 mil profile).
