Abstract
Ferrous sulfate (FeSO4) treatment is a technique used to protect copper and its alloys against corrosion by promoting the formation of a protective surface film. However, the effectiveness of FeSO4 treatment is dependent on a number of parameters relating to how the treatment is applied. This article summarizes the various FeSO4 treatment parameters explored in prior studies, highlighting the significance of key parameters such as fluid flow, media replenishment, and media composition in treating copper-nickel (CuNi) alloys. Furthermore, a series of experiments are conducted to validate the impact of these critical parameters on the formation and composition of the protective film on treated alloys. The results obtained emphasize the importance of these parameters in achieving a successful FeSO4 treatment and improved corrosion resistance for CuNi alloys. Overall, this paper provides an overview of the various FeSO4 treatment parameters and how they affect the treatment outcome for CuNi alloys.
期刊介绍:
CORROSION is the premier research journal featuring peer-reviewed technical articles from the world’s top researchers and provides a permanent record of progress in the science and technology of corrosion prevention and control. The scope of the journal includes the latest developments in areas of corrosion metallurgy, mechanisms, predictors, cracking (sulfide stress, stress corrosion, hydrogen-induced), passivation, and CO2 corrosion.
70+ years and over 7,100 peer-reviewed articles with advances in corrosion science and engineering have been published in CORROSION. The journal publishes seven article types – original articles, invited critical reviews, technical notes, corrosion communications fast-tracked for rapid publication, special research topic issues, research letters of yearly annual conference student poster sessions, and scientific investigations of field corrosion processes. CORROSION, the Journal of Science and Engineering, serves as an important communication platform for academics, researchers, technical libraries, and universities.
Articles considered for CORROSION should have significant permanent value and should accomplish at least one of the following objectives:
• Contribute awareness of corrosion phenomena,
• Advance understanding of fundamental process, and/or
• Further the knowledge of techniques and practices used to reduce corrosion.
