Copper wire obtained by dip-forming process was cold worked to the deformation degrees of 83, 87, 91, 95 and 99 %. Electrochemical potentiodynamic method was used to investigate corrosion behavior of these wires in aqueous solutions of Na2CO3 (1 mol/dm3). Open circuit potentials as well as peak potentials are given as a function of deformation degree in Na2CO3 without and with addition of gelatine in concentration between 0.1 and 0.5 g/l. It was found that the addition of gelatine does not change the mechanism of the process, but influences on current density. Small concentrations of gelatine (0.1 g/l or less) have positive influence on the corrosion protection of copper in alkaline solution, but the addition of gelatine in concentration 0.5 g/l causes the increasing of its corrosion rate.

Various facilities are used in mineral processing to prepare raw material. Practically, two types of balls are used, cast balls and forged balls. They are respectively made from high chromium cast iron and forged steel and are supplied in different sizes and chemical compositions. The cast and forged balls have different microstructures and consequently display dissimilar wear behavior. The target aimed in this work is to achieve a comparative study taking into account the type of microstructure, mechanical properties, and wear behavior of these two kinds of materials. Specimens have undergone chemical, metallographic and XRD characterizations. Subsequently, these samples were subjected to hardness measurements, abrasion and friction tests in order to evaluate their wear behaviour. Tribological tests, under unlubricated environment, are carried out on both types of grinding balls in order to study the wear system. Corrosion tests are also performed on forged steel and high chromium cast iron ball samples. The obtained results reveal a large difference in terms of chemical composition and microstructural components. Chromium cast iron balls are more resistant to friction, whereas forged balls are more resistant to abrasion. Additionally, the corrosion tests reveal a narrow discrepancy in corrosion behaviour between the studied materials.

The distribution of species in Cu(II)-glycine solutions, containing sulfate or perchlorate as a supporting electrolyte, is considered. Substantial differences are observed at pH < 4.5, where the molar fraction of monoligand complex (associate) CuSO4 reaches up to 20 percent of the total Cu(II) concentration. Cu(I)-containing species are generated at the Cu|solution interface. These are Cu+ aqua-complexes (acid media) or mono- and bidentate Cu(I)-glycine complexes (alkaline media). The addition of sulfate reduces the content of Cu+ ions, but practically does not affect the distribution of Cu(I) complexes. The study of acidbase equilibria involving Cu+ ions shows that the thermodynamic probability of Cu2O formation remains low in both perchlorate and sulfate media. HSO4– ions formed in acid media should be treated as rather labile proton donors. This is quantitatively confirmed by experimental data, according to which the rate of hydrogen evolution increases correspondingly when perchlorate is replaced by sulfate in glycine solutions.
