The corrosion inhibitive performance of the IA-AG-SMAS on Q235 carbon steel in artificial seawater was assessed by the weight loss experiment, morphology evaluation as well as electrochemical analysis at different temperatures by varying inhibitor dosage. Experimental results showed that IA-AG-SMAS achieved a maximum 89.58% corrosion inhibition efficiency at 400 mg/L for 30°C as a mixed-type inhibitor. The adsorption behavior of IA-AG-SMAS on Q235 steel surface obeys the Langmuir isotherm with a physisorption mechanism. According to potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurement, the inhibition performance was significantly improved, while the anticorrosion mechanism was not affected by increasing the concentration of inhibitors. Moreover, the dispersion test confirmed that IA-AG-SMAS efficiently prevented Fe2O3 from deposition on a metal surface, which further retarded corrosion. At a concentration of 16 mg/L, IA-AG-SMAS exhibited an Fe2O3 solubility of 97.90% with complete sediment disappearance. Molecular dynamics simulation was employed to investigate the affinity of IA-AG-SMAS inhibitor on Fe(110) surface in the ASW environment. Theoretical results aligned with the experiments and confirmed the promising anticorrosion ability of IA-AG-SMAS by adopting a parallel adsorption configuration on an Fe(110) surface, thus inhibiting the corrosion.","PeriodicalId":10717,"journal":{"name":"Corrosion","volume":"81 8","pages":"776-787"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147909316","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, the morphology-controlled magnetic hollow mesoporous Fe3O4 nanocarriers (MHMNs) with saturation magnetization of ca. 77 emu/g were fabricated by self-template etching route. Serial characterization results showed that the sample (MHMNs-7.0), obtained by etching MHMNs with 7.0 mg/mL of the oxalic acid solution, presented the largest cavity volume and a rich pore structure, which promotes its high loading capacity of 77.6% for 2-mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT) inhibitor. The resulting material could be used as the carrier for loading various types of inhibitors, e.g., MBT, Ce3+, benzotriazole (BTA), and under negative vacuum treatment. The release behavior of the obtained composite inhibitors was detected by UV-vis spectroscopy, and the inhibition behavior of the composite inhibitors for mild steel in 3.5% NaCl solution was evaluated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and immersion tests. The results showed that all of the as-obtained composites presented magnetic-controlled release properties and good inhibition performance. Without the external magnetic field (no MF mode), the release of MBT from MHMNs-7.0/MBT mainly involved Fickian diffusion. Under the application of a magnetic field (MF ON mode), the release behavior was dominated by a swelling mechanism, Fickian diffusion, and diffusion between magnetic particles. The nanocomposite inhibitor had good inhibition efficiency for carbon steel in 3.5% NaCl solution with a maximum of 93.66%, and its continuous release properties enabled it to exhibit long-term corrosion inhibition performance.","PeriodicalId":10717,"journal":{"name":"Corrosion","volume":"81 4","pages":"405-422"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147912406","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the reduced zinc powder content tends to reduce the degree of connectivity in the layer, which leads to a reduction in the corrosion resistance of the coating. The effective zinc powder content was also reduced. Therefore, it is important to increase the connection capacity of the zinc powder in the coating while reducing the amount of zinc powder. In this paper, an epoxy coating with low zinc content is prepared by using flake zinc powder instead of spherical zinc powder. It also uses graphene to connect zinc powder in the coating to increase the electrical conductivity of the zinc powder in the coating. This results in an increase in the protection of the coating determined, although the cathodic protection of the coating was not prolonged by the results of OCP and EIS. In addition, when the zinc powder in the coating is cleanly consumed, the complex nature of corrosion product formed with graphene can increase the barrier resistance of the coating thereby increasing the corrosion resistance.","PeriodicalId":10717,"journal":{"name":"Corrosion","volume":"41 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139442422","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Richardson, R. Melchers","doi":"10.5006/4453","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5006/4453","url":null,"abstract":"\u0000 Mild steels exposed to marine immersion conditions in which carbonate solubilities are exceeded, leading to deposition of calcareous material, have been shown to exhibit much reduced corrosion rates compared with corrosion under conditions in which there is no exceedance of solubility limits and therefore no calcareous deposition. However, the differences in corrosion including the potential effect of MIC in these conditions have not been examined systematically in the literature. The study reported herein involves short- to medium-term marine immersion exposures (up to 18 months) of mild steel coupons in natural seawater (control) and in environments using the same seawater source dosed with: 1) CaCO3, acting as an inorganic particulate suspension representative of that encountered in seawater with elevated calcareous content, and 2) a nitrate salt, acting as an industrial pollutant and bacterial nutrient source. The results show the extent to which the deposition of particulate CaCO3 from suspension in seawater onto and into the rusts reduces the rate of corrosion of mild steel; a rate that was found to be dependent on the coupon orientation within the seawater. Coupons which were permanently buried beneath a cap of settled CaCO3 particles exhibited a 70% reduction in corrosion rate compared with the representative control coupons. The results also show that for these exposure durations and conditions, while IRB and SRB bacterial species were identified in high concentrations (respectively ~1 × 106 cfu/g and ~1 × 102 to 4 × 106 cfu/g, depending on coupon orientation) within the rust products themselves after 18 months of exposure, there was no clear evidence of MIC. These findings indicate that short and medium term (non-accelerated) studies of MIC for mild steel are insufficient or even mis-leading for the prediction of long-term corrosion rates in these environments.","PeriodicalId":10717,"journal":{"name":"Corrosion","volume":"9 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139441742","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, it is necessary to study the corrosion behavior of pipeline steel under dynamic DC interference. Therefore, the corrosion behavior of X80 steel under dynamic DC interference were studied by mass loss test, AC impedance, circuit simulation, XRD, and Pourbaix diagram. Combined with the corrosion efficiency and Pourbaix diagram of the Fe-H2O system, the reversible process and reduction process mechanism in the Faraday process are proposed. The reason why the corrosion efficiency slows down in the process of non-Faraday is analyzed by the electric double layer model of equivalent circuit calculation. In addition, based on the above corrosion process, the corresponding conceptual model of the corrosion mechanism is proposed. The experimental results show that with the asymmetry of positive and negative half cycle interference duration and the increase of current density, the corrosion efficiency and current corrosion efficiency of X80 steel decrease, and local corrosion intensifies. The length of negative half cycle interference affects the capacitive charge-discharge effect at the metal/solution interface and the reduction reaction process of corrosion products, resulting in corrosion slowing down and corrosion efficiency reduction. This is also an important reason for the reduction of corrosion mass loss observed in the experiment compared with steady-state DC.","PeriodicalId":10717,"journal":{"name":"Corrosion","volume":"45 18","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139442343","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The passive films are designed to provide corrosion protection by regulating charge transfer and transport processes operative during corrosion as well as by providing self-healing capability. Film protectivity can be obtained from single passivating element oxidation, passivity “helper” elements, secondary passivators, as well as other second and third element effects. Oxides can form congruently or enrich in certain elements and be depleted in others. The wide arrange of possible alloying combinations and resultant oxide compositions for a given design space necessitates efficient alloy selection for experimental synthesis and characterization of down-selected choices with high potential for good corrosion resistance. A design process for Al-Co-Cr-Fe-Mn-Mo-Ni containing CCAs providing testable strategies for effective incorporation of corrosion-influencing elements in the oxide is introduced.

To quantify the effects of secondary phases on the corrosion of Mg alloys, the variation of average number density, average equivalent diameter and average distance were investigated. The corrosion rate of Mg alloys was measured by electrochemical tests. It was found that after low temperature aging at 95 °C, the corrosion rate of Mg alloys decreased by ~50%. This is due to the uniform distribution of secondary phases which increases the local overall potential and improves the protection of surface films.","PeriodicalId":10717,"journal":{"name":"Corrosion","volume":"47 19","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139384791","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Other than salts, corrosive gases such as CO2 are abundant in the production stream, which dissolve and acidify the solution, posing a risk of internal pipeline corrosion. To mitigate this issue, the injection of corrosion inhibitors has emerged as a cost-effective approach. In various aggressive conditions, heterocyclic molecules that contain nitrogen atoms have proven to be highly effective corrosion inhibitors for many alloys. In this study, tetrahydropyrimidinium (THP-C14) inhibition efficiencies were investigated at temperatures of 25, 55, and 80 °C using electrochemical methods, including linear polarization resistance and potentiodynamic sweeps. Corrosion inhibition data were then correlated with THP-C14 concentration, using the five adsorption isotherms: Langmuir, Temkin, Frumkin, Flory-Huggins, and Dhar-Flory-Huggins models. These isotherms utilize different assumptions to establish the correlation between coverage and inhibitor concentration. The suitability of these five isotherm models for describing the corrosion inhibition behavior of THP-C14 was examined. In addition, the thermodynamic parameters (Kad,ΔadGo) of adsorption for THP-C14 at 25, 55 and 80 °C were calculated and compared using the aforementioned adsorption isotherm models. Finally, a mechanism was proposed for the adsorption behavior of the THP-C14 corrosion inhibitor model compound. Chloride ions were important for inhibitor adsorption.","PeriodicalId":10717,"journal":{"name":"Corrosion","volume":"63 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138954577","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
