This work evaluate the protective characteristic of the CO2 corrosion product layers formed on the surface of two types of steels, API 5L X80 used for transportation of oil and gas, and API 5CT P110 used for case tubing and pipe for oil drilling.Electrochemistry evaluations and morphological characterization of the obtained layer were performed. These steels were exposed to a brine solution containing 3% wt of NaCl, in a pressurized autoclave with 55 bar of CO2 and total pressure of 75 bar at different temperatures (25, 50 and 75°C) and immersion times (7, 15, 21 and 30 days). The corrosion rate was determined by mass loss tests and electrochemical techniques, such as Linear Polarization Resistance and Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy. Characteristics of the corrosion product layer such as thickness, morphology, and chemical composition were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersion spectroscopy (EDS) and X-Ray diffraction (XRD). The corrosion rate decreases with the increase of the immersion time and temperature, and the lower rate of corrosion was obtained for 75°C after 30 days of immersion, for both steels

The number of reinforced concrete structures subject to anoxic conditions such as offshore platforms and geological storage facilities is growing steadily. This study explored the behaviour of embedded steel reinforcement corrosion under anoxic conditions in the presence of different chloride concentrations. Corrosion rate values were obtained by three electrochemical techniques: Linear polarization resistance, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and chronopotenciometry. The corrosion rate ceiling observed was 0.98 µA/cm2, irrespective of the chloride content in the concrete. By means of an Evans diagram, it was possible to estimate the value of the cathodic Tafel constant (bc) to be 180 mV dec−1, and the current limit yielded an ilim value of 0.98 µA/cm2. On the other hand, the corrosion potential would lie most likely in the −900 mVAg/AgCl to −1000 mVAg/AgCl range, whilst the bounds for the most probable corrosion rate were 0.61 µA/cm2 to 0.22 µA/cm2. The experiments conducted revealed clear evidence of corrosion-induced pitting that will be assessed in subsequent research.

Rare earth modified lead titanate powders Pb1-xRExTiO3 (REPT), x = 0.01, 0.05, 0.07 and RE = Yb, Y, were prepared by the Pechini method. The materials were calcined under flowing oxygen at different temperatures from 300 to 700 ºC. Nanostructured REPT were investigated using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and surface area analysis (BET). The results suggest that the modifier cation incorporated into the system has notable influence in the microstructure and a notable decrease in the crystallite sizes.

Various structure scales at the surface of SS400 hot rolled strip were fabricated by heat treatment processes involving different temperatures. A simulation about the effect of various temperatures on the oxide scale structure during the coiling process was carried out. The structure and corrosion behavior of different oxide scales formed at the surface of hot rolled strip were investigated in sodium bisulfite (NaHSO3) solution by scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The scale prepared at 550 °C is mainly composed of one layer of Fe3O4 phase. The scales prepared at 600 °C and 700 °C consist of the outer thin Fe2O3 layer and the inner (Fe3O4+Fe particles) layer. The scale prepared at 650 °C is mainly composed of Fe3O4 phase as well as a spot of Fe2O3 phase. The thickness of scale prepared at 650°C is observed to be more homogeneous than that of other scales and the bonding between the scale and substrate is found to be very strong. The experimental results clearly reveal that the hot rolled strip with scale prepared at 650 °C exhibits the most excellent corrosion resisting property in 0.01 mol/L NaHSO3 solution.

Two types of polymeric coating were applied on an AISI 1020 steel, where one of them was reinforced by carbon nanotubes, with the objective of protection against corrosion in a medium containing saline solution, NaCl 3% wt satured with CO2, at 75 bar and tested at 50oC and 75oC for 360 hours. Electrochemical techniques, such as Linear Polarization Resistance, (LPR), Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS), Tafel curves and weight loss method, were used for coating evaluation performance. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) were used to determine both the morphology and chemical composition of the layer formed on the analyzed surfaces. The coating adhesion to metallic surface was evaluated using pull-off test according to ASTM D4541-09. For the studied conditions, the results obtained showed that there was no adequate coating protection, occurring failures and indicating that both coatings may not be used in the tested conditions.

The objective of this study was to prepare Ce–MnO2 nanostructure composite as an electrode material for supercapacitor application. Ce–MnO2 nanostructure composite was synthesized by facile hydrothermal method at different temperatures. Structural details of pure and Ce–MnO2 nanostructure composite were studied using powder X-ray diffraction technique. The formation of flower like structure and strong interaction with Ce and MnO2 were confirmed by field emission electron microscope technique. Their electrochemical performances were elucidated by using cyclic voltammetry, charge–discharge, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques. Nearly rectangular shaped cyclic voltagram was observed for synthesized Ce–MnO2 nanostructure composite electrode, indicating the existence of electric double layer capacitance nature. Ce–MnO2 (130) nanostructure composite exhibited high specific capacitance value of 147.25 F/g at applied current density of 1 A/g in 1 M Li2SO4 aqueous electrolyte. Furthermore, resistive and capacitive behaviors of these electrodes were studied from Nyquist and bode diagrams within frequency range of 10 mHz to 100 kHz.

A study of the effect of Sn (1, 2, 3.5, 4.5, and 5 wt%) and Bi (0.5, 1.5, 3, and 4%) on the corrosion behavior of Al in ethylene glycol (C2H6O2)-40% water mixtures at 20, 40, and 60°C has been carried out using electrochemical techniques. Techniques include potentiodynamic polarization curves, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and electrochemical noise (EN) measurements. The three techniques have shown that additions of either Sn or Bi contents increased the corrosion rate of pure Al in all cases, and that generally speaking, the corrosion rate increased by increasing the temperature except for the alloy containing 1% Sn + 4% Bi, which showed the lowest corrosion rate at 60°C. This was because of a galvanic effect from the presence of Sn and/or Bi particles on the surface alloy, which acted as local cathodes, leading to an acceleration of corrosion. Nyquist diagrams showed two semicircles at 20°C and only one at 40°C or 60°C for all the alloys, showing two different corrosion-controlling mechanisms. EN measurements showed evidence of a mixture of both localized and uniform types of corrosion for all Al-based alloys.

Sulfolane-induced corrosion can lead to severe impairment in industrial systems. Therefore, determination of solvent corrosivity is valid. Under standard conditions, pure sulfolane is considered to be thermally stable and chemically inert, hence non-aggressive towards carbon/stainless steel. Unfortunately, the sulfolane-evoked corrosion of the industrial installations is observed for sulfolane-based systems polluted by small quantities of oxygen, water and some oxidizing agents. Moreover, sulfolane decomposition with formation of corrosive (by-)products can be escalated by some process parameters, e.g., temperature. The main objective of this study was to determine the corrosion resistance of AISI 1010 steel immersed in sulfolane at temperatures ranging from 25 to 230 °C. Evaluation of the corrosion damage was carried out using electrochemical techniques and scanning probe/electron microscopy, respectively. The general corrosion tendency, corrosion rate and surface corrosion degree were taken into account as well. It was noticed that the corrosion rate linearly increases with the enhancement of sulfolane temperature. Moreover, the interfacial reaction of steel with sulfolane resulted in the formation of corrosion product layer, which is a physical barrier between the corrosive environment and steel improving corrosion resistance of the latter. In fact, the increment of the sulfolane temperature caused a gradual breakdown of the protective layer and the increase in the corrosion degree of the investigated steel. Finally, it was found that the corrosion degree doubles approximately every 42 °C.

Inhibitor is generally known as one of many alternatives to control corrosion rate. These days, there is the rapid development in which finding inhibitor made from natural ingredient that is really eco-friendly. This research use type of sarang semut, Myrmecodia Pendans (MP), as bio inhibitor with concentrate level for about 0-500 mg/L and also using the material of carbon steel API 5L Grade B, and HCl 1 M as such corrosive media. The affectivity of bio inhibitor is generally known through such calibration which is called as Weight Loss, Potentiodynamic Polarization Test, Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy Test, and X-Ray Diffraction Test. The test results show that when it is added with bio inhibitor, there is the decreasing of corrosion rate from 109.88 mpy to 39.294 mpy in concentration level of 500 mg/L. Inhibition mechanism occurred is that there is the formation of a thin layer on the metal surface. Meanwhile, the XRD results show that there are compounds of Fe, FeCl3 and FeOCl in carbon steel API 5l Grade B.

The growth mechanism of product film on steel surface in sulfur-containing sodium aluminate solution was studied with relevance to processing of high-sulfur bauxite ores in Bayer process. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), potentiodynamic polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were used to study the growth of corrosion product film on 12Cr1MoV steel in sodium aluminate solution containing 5 g/L S2– and 3 g/L S2O2– 3. Results indicated that the corrosion rate gradually decreased with increasing corrosion time (t). The fitted corrosion rate equation was V = 4.365t–0.809. The corrosion resistance was highest after 5 d. The growth evolution of the product film was divided into three stages: film formation, film conversion and film growth. The final corrosion product film comprised an inner film layer mainly composed of Fe3O4 and an outer film layer mainly composed of FeS, FeS2 and Fe2O3.
