Corrosion of carbon steel in CO2 saturated NaCl solution contains the formation of FeCO3, as a corrosion product. The protective property of the formed FeCO3 scale layer to corrosion in brine solutions containing CO2 was established as the possible cause of the corrosion rate decrease above 60 °C. In this study, formation of nanoscale FeCO3 film as a corrosion product of X52 carbon steel in CO2-Saturated 3% NaCl solution was investigated. Result showed that corrosion rate decreased after precipitation and formation of protective FeCO3 film in high temperature and high bulk solution pH.

There are three contributing elements of corrosion of Carbon Steel in H₂ S environment: the effect of H2S on water chemistry; electrochemical reactions of the bare iron surface (both anodic and cathodic processes); and the formation and growth of corrosion product layers. The electrochemical reaction commonly contains three stages: first, the reactant transported from the solution (bulk) to the metal surface; then the transfer of the charge reaction on the surface, followed by the reaction product transported away from the iron surface to the bulk solution or the formation and development of the corrosion product which then can decrease the corrosion rate. Development of a robust corrosion model to predict the corrosion process in H2S requires a mechanistic understanding of all these elements. An experimental study was carried out to assess the corrosion of C-steel under open-circuit technique conditions and in solutions at several ranges of time and temperatures. The effect of film composition, morphology, structure, thickness, and ion- concentration of corrosion product films formed on pipeline Carbon Steel in an acid sour solution were examined. The electrochemical behavior of the filmed steel was measured, and the film properties assessed using a range of advanced techniques including Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and Raman spectroscopy (RS). The data will be discussed in terms of film formation mechanisms.

Biodiesel come into being used as an alternative source of energy as the diminishing of petroleum reserves. This fuel is typically stored in tanks that are commonly made from carbon steel, which is easily corroded by microorganisms. Recent studies have shown that bacteria aside from SRB may also be involved in corrosion. Therefore, this research was aimed to evaluate the effect of biodiesel concentration (15%, 20% and 30% v/v) mixed in diesel oil on the corrosion of carbon steel by S. marcescens that dominate biocorrosion on hydrocarbon products. In this study, the corrosion process was investigated by evaluation of biofilm morphology and composition, the rate of corrosion and the corrosion product of carbon steel which was exposed in the mixture of hydrocarbons and the presence of S. marcescens. It can be concluded that higher concentration of biodiesel in diesel oil leads to higher growth of bacteria in the biofilm and higher corrosion rate.

It is well know that recirculating open cooling water system at metal/ water surface contact appear frequent corrosion products, like scales, foaling and material losses which are have great effect on cooling process. Passivation helps to maintain clean heat transfer surface by inhibiting oxides scales through creating outer passive layer. Passivators are substances which usually have a sufficiently high equilibrium potential and sufficiently low over potential decrease corrosion rate on attainment of passivity. One of the most popular passivator is organic phosphate Phosphinosuccinic oligomer C15H14O4P component (PSO) The study of passivation of carbon steel pipe line in recirculating open cooling water system was the aim of this present work. Maximum efficiency of passivator was determined and surface morphology were investigated using optical, scanning microscopy, phase analysis of the formed protective layer was exam by XRD and EDX. Corrosion in running water with and without PSO at 2 m3/hr flow rate was investigated using corrosion coupon rack. It was found that 200 ppm (PSO) decreases corrosion rate of carbon steel pipe in 3.5% NaCL solution from 23 to 7 mpy in stagnate water corrosion testing, while in running water in 3.5% NaCL solution it decreases from 45 to 18 mpy. XDR showed that the protective layer due to passivation is mainly Magnetite (Fe3O4) compound.

Nanostructured coatings offer great potential for various applications due to their superior characteristics that are not typically found in conventional coatings. This research aimed at developing a new and improved coating that employs zinc oxide nanopowder as the agent to achieve corrosion resistant properties for a coating. The research project discusses on its corrosion behaviour of epoxy-zinc oxide in different media by measuring its corrosion rate. Mild carbon steel was used as the substrate for the epoxy-zinc oxide coating. The corrosion behavior mechanism of mild steel was investigated in different media, namely fresh water, NaCl solution, HCl solution and NaOH solution. Immersion test was conducted and studied for a period of 60 days, with daily and weekly weighing and immersing. The corrosion rate was calculated and mild steel corrodes in the different environment and degrades in the following trend; HCl → NaCl → NaOH → H2O.

Inhibitor is a substance that is added to the corrosive media to inhibit corrosion rate. Organic inhibitors are preferred to inorganic ones since they are environmentally friendly. One of the organic compounds which is rarely reported as a corrosion inhibitor isMyrmecodia Pendans. The organic compounds can be adsorbed on the metal surface and block the active surface to reduce the rate of corrosion. In this study, the used pipe was carbon steel API 5L Grade B with 3.5% NaCl solution as the corrosion medium. The objective of this research was to analyze the inhibition mechanismMyrmecodia Pendanstowards carbon steel in a corrosion medium. Concentration variations of extractMyrmecodia Pendanswere 0–500 ppm. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) was used for chemical characterization ofMyrmecodia Pendans. Polarization and Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) were used to measure the corrosion rate and behaviour. From the electrochemical measurements, it was found that the addition of 400 mg/L inhibitor gave the highest inhibition efficiency.Myrmecodia Pendansacted as a corrosion inhibitor by forming a thin layer on the metal surface.

Research has been conducted on the effectiveness of maja fruit skin extract as an inhibitor of carbon steel AISI 1020 in a corrosive medium NaCl 3% with variations in immersion time. The samples carbon steel AISI 1020 were immersed in corrosive medium NaCl 3% without being given and given the inhibitor of maja skin extract with a concentration of 0.8% for 5, 15, 25, 35, and 45 days. Calculation of reduction in corrosion rate is carried out by the method of weight loss. The results showed that the addition of the maja fruit skin extract inhibitor was effective in reducing the corrosion rate of the sample with the greatest efficiency at 35 days immersion, which was equal to 72.35%. The results of XRD characterization show that the phase formed is pure Fe and Fe3O4 phase which is a corrosion product is immersed without inhibitor. The results of SEM characterization showed that the microstructure of the surface of the sample after immersion was there were cracks, holes, and lumps which indicated that the sample had been corroded. The results of EDS characterization show that in the soaked sample there were corrosion products in the form of FeO compounds whose magnitude increased every time immersion.

 Carbon steel is a major metal used in manufacturing of the equipments used in petroleum industry and it is subject to different operating conditions causing various corrosion attacks. Corrosion of carbon steel in sodium sulphate solution (Na2SO4) under flow conditions was investigated using rotating cylinder electrode (RCE) for a range of rotation velocity (0 – 2000 rpm) and temperatures (32 - 52 oC). The corrosion rate  was determined by using both weight loss method and electrochemical polarization technique (limiting current density). Different salt concentrations were investigated ranged from 0.01 to 0.4 M. The effect of time (or corrosion product formation) and the effect of oxygen concentration through air bubbling in the solution were also investigated and discussed. The results showed that increasing  rotational velocity leads to a considerable increase in the corrosion rate represented by limiting current density. The corrosion rate had unstable trend with salt concentrations and temperature. Generally, the corrosion rate decreased appreciably with time due to the formation of corrosion product layer depending on rotational velocity, temperature, and oxygen concentration. It was found that, air pumping through the salt solution leads to a considerable increase in the limiting current density (iL) depending on rotational velocity, temperature, and time.

Corrosion is the reaction between the material and the environment that cause degradation of the material. Corrosion reduces the essential properties of materials such as strength, appearance, toughness and life expectancy. Carbon steels are composed of a mixture of metallic iron and carbon and being used extensively in every sector due to good mechanical properties and good cost. However, carbon steel are every susceptible to corrosion attack especially in corrosive environment. The use of inhibitors is one of the best options to protect against corrosion on metals and alloys especially in a closed system. Inhibitor is a chemical substance which can reduce corrosion attack when added into electrolyte. The organic inhibitor used in this study was from banana peel (scientific name Musa sapieutum) to extract tannin-a compound which can provide protective layer on metal [1-3]. The results elucidate that banana peel can be used as green inhibitor on canbon steel, however, the effect only can be seen when added with 10% and more. The immersion test was done to evaluate the effect of corrosion product to corrosion rate. The results explained that corrosion rate fluctuated during immersion period due to developed and dissolved of soluble product into electrolyte. The research provide a set of data elucidate that corrosion product developed on carbon steel cannot provide corrosion protection on carbon steel, however, using green inhibitor in high concentrations which is purely not harmful to environment could prevent corrosion attack on carbon steel.

AbstractThe use of bentonite as buffer and carbon steel as overpack material for the geological disposal of nuclear waste is under investigation. To better assess the long term integrity of the carbon steel overpack, a quantitative analysis of the corrosion behavior on the steel surface for time frames beyond that of feasible empirical determination is required. The state n years after disposal, consisting of Carbon Steel / Corrosion Products + Bentonite / Water, was simulated and the corrosion behavior of the carbon steel in this state investigated. The following facts became apparent. Both the corrosion rate and the non-uniformity of it increased with increase in the corrosion product content in the compacted bentonite. When the corrosion product layer was formed between the carbon steel and the bentonite, it ennobled the corrosion potential and increased the corrosion rate.
