Iron, while attracting less attention than magnesium and zinc, is still one of the best candidates for biodegradable metal stents thanks its biocompatibility, great elastic moduli and high strength. Due to the low corrosion rate, and thus slow biodegradation, iron stents have still not been put into use. While these problems have still not been fully resolved, many studies have been published that propose different approaches to the issues. This brief overview report summarises the latest developments in the field of biodegradable iron-based stents and presents some techniques that can accelerate their biocorrosion rate. Basic data related to iron metabolism and its biocompatibility, the mechanism of the corrosion process, as well as a critical look at the rate of degradation of iron-based systems obtained by several different methods are included. All this illustrates as the title says, what was done within the topic of biodegradable iron-based materials and what more can be done.

Abstract. The electric field induced in the Bolivia–Brazil gas pipeline (GASBOL) was calculated by using the distributed source line transmission (DSLT) theory during several space weather events. We used geomagnetic data collected by a fluxgate magnetometer located at São José dos Campos (23.2∘ S, 45.9∘ W). The total corrosion rate was calculated by using the Gummow (2002) methodology and was based on the assumption of a 1 cm hole in the coating of the pipeline. The calculations were performed at the ends of pipeline where the largest “out-of-phase” pipe-to-soil potential (PSP) variations were obtained. The variations in PSP during the 17 March 2015 geomagnetic storm have led to the greatest corrosion rate of the analyzed events. All the space weather events evaluated with high terminating impedance may have contributed to increases in the corrosion process. The applied technique can be used to evaluate the corrosion rate due to the high telluric activity associated with the geomagnetic storms at specific locations.

Purpose High silicon iron-based alloys possess excellent corrosion resistance in certain specific media, but the effects of electrolysis parameters on corrosion resistance remain unknown. This study aims to guide the development and application of an extra-low carbon high silicon iron-based alloy (ECHSIA) in electrode plates. Design/methodology/approach The corrosion resistance of ECHSIA and a conventional high-silicon cast iron (CHSCI) was analyzed through experimental characterizations. The morphology was observed by scanning electron microscopy. The influence of electrolysis parameters on the corrosion resistance of ECHSIA was investigated through corrosion experiments. The relationship between the electrolysis parameters and the corrosion resistance of ECHSIA was statistically investigated using the grey correlation analysis method. Findings The corrosion resistance of the ECHSIA is better than that of the CHSCI. The corrosion rate showed an increasing tendency with the increase in the nitric acid concentration (CHNO3), electrolyte temperature and current density. The grey correlation analysis results showed that the CHNO3 was the main factor affecting the corrosion rate of the ECHSIA. Originality/value An ECHSIA with a single ferrite microstructure was prepared. This study provides a guideline for the future development and application of ECHSIAs as electrode plates.

Purpose This paper aims to introduce a method to reduce corrosion caused by acidic-oxidized polymer degradant through subsection injection with different inhibitor. Design/methodology/approach This paper introduced a method to reduce corrosion caused by acidic-oxidized polymer degradant through subsection injection with different inhibitor. Findings The experimental results indicated that the influence of pre-corrosion status on corrosion rate and effectiveness of corrosion inhibitor are significant. The corrosion inhibitors in both injection stage inhibited the corrosion process by preventing the contact of corrosive medium and steel surface through formation of a protective film on the surface of N80 steel. The corrosion rate of polymer degradant can be reduced to 0.63 g/m 2 h through subsection injection with different inhibitor. Originality/value This result will increase the production of polymer injection plugging wells through expanding the application of acidic-oxidized polymer degradant.

In the treatment of atherosclerotic disease patients, the adoption of second-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) in percutaneous coronary intervention reduced the occurrence of in-stent restenosis (ISR) and acute stent thrombosis (ST) when compared to bare metal stents and 1st generation DES. However, the permanent encaging of the vessel wall by any of the metallic stents perpetuates the inflammation process and prevents vasomotion in the treated segment. Aiming to overcome this issue, the bioresorbable scaffold (BRS) concept was developed by providing transient vascular radial support to the target segment during the necessary time to heal and disappearing after a period of time. Close to 20 years since BRS technology was first reported, the interventional cardiology field saw the rise and fall of several BRS devices. Although iron-based BRS is an emerging technology, currently, magnesium-alloy resorbable scaffolds devices are supported with the most robust data. This manuscript aims to review the concept of magnesium-based BRS devices, as well as their bioresorption mechanisms and the status of this technology, and the clinical outcomes of patients treated with magnesium BRS and to review the available evidence on iron-based BRS technology.

Electricity accelerated corrosion is a common method to obtain corroded reinforced concrete specimens in current experimental research, and it has some relevance and differences with natural corrosion. The paper undertakes a detailed comparative research on the relevance and differences of the two corrosion conditions from the corrosion mechanism, the corrosion process, the corrosion rate, the electric flux and corrosion features, and this provide a better understanding of the research achievements based on accelerated corrosion.

The influence of limestone powder, lithium slag and air-entraining agent on frost resistance of concretes was investigated by freezing-thawing cycle tests. The elastic moduli and weight loss rates of concretes before and after tests were checked. The results show the introduction of limestone powder into concrete is disadvantageous to its frost resistance, which gets worse as limestone powder contents increase. Air-entraining agent used in concrete can improve its frost resistance. The frost resistance grades of concrete containing a certain of air-entraining agent (0.2-0.4‰) can reach F1500, while it is below F300 for limestone powder concrete which is absent of air-entraining agent. The addition of lithium slag into concrete is helpful to frost resistance, and optimum mixing amount is 10%.

The distributions of corrosion potential and galvanic current of 304 stainless steel under a NaCl droplet were studied by using the wire beam electrode (WBE). It was found that the distributions of the electrochemical parameters were heterogeneous with isolated anodic and cathodic zones appeared randomly. During the corrosion process, the polarity of some anodes changed with the evolution of time. The localized corrosion rate and heterogeneity increased firstly, and then decreased afterward with the increase of time, which can be attributed to the cooperative effects of the aggressive ions and the corrosion products.

A type of Q125 grade high-strength low carbide oil tube steel was designed and researched. The strengthening mechanism of the steel was analyzed by SEM and TEM, and the CO2 corrosion behavior of the steel was simulated by high-temperature and high-pressure autoclave. The result show: the size of original austenite grain, packet and block are about 10-15μm, 2μm and 200nm, respectively, so the strength of the steel matched toughness well. The precipitate of (Nb,Ti)(C,N) whose size is about 60nm can restrain coarsening of the original austenite grain through pitting austenite grain boundary; The precipitate of (Nb,Ti)C and nanometer sized precipitate of NbC can be an effective barrier for dislocation motion, so that has great contributions to improve the strength of the steel. The average and pitting corrosion rate increased first and then dropped down with the increasing of temperature. There is a maximum of average and pitting corrosion rate at 90°C; Simultaneously, when the temperature is 90°C, there is a biggest difference between average corrosion rate and pitting corrosion rate.
