Vacuum annealing was carried out for the SMAT treated CP-Ti sample at different temperatures. The structure and the properties of the SMAT sample before and after the annealing were analyzed by means of the optical microscope, hardness and polarization curve testing. The results show that, when the annealing temperature of surface nanocrystallized CP-Ti treated CP-Ti (SMAT) was below 350°C, the microstructure and hardness of nanostructured surface was stability, and its corrosion resistance was improved compared to non-annealing one. In particular, the corrosion resistance at 150°C was better than that of the original CP-Ti.

The corrosion behavior of two specially designed austenitic stainless steels (SSs) having different Nickel (Ni) and Manganese (Mn) contents was investigated. Prior to electrochemical tests, SS alloys were solution-annealed at two different temperatures, that is, at 1030°C for 2 h and 1050°C for 0.5 h. Potentiodynamic polarization (PD) tests were carried out in chloride and acidic chloride, whereas linear polarization resistance (LPR) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was performed in 0.5 M NaCl solution at room temperature. SEM/EDS investigations were carried out to study the microstructure and types of inclusions present in these alloys. Experimental results suggested that the alloy with highest Ni content and annealed at 1050°C/0.5 hr has the highest corrosion resistance.

Plastic deformation can induce surface modification, such as shot peening (SP) on workpiece surface is the hot issue of recent scientific research. SP is the efficient way to improve mechanical behavior of specimens by inducing sever plastic deformation on their surface. Nevertheless, this surface treatment induced complex microstructural evolutions such as grain refinement, will enhance the corrosion resistance of specimens. In this work, the microstructure and properties of 34CrMo4 alloy of before and after SP for 20 min have been investigated. The evolution of microstructure and properties were analyzed from the surface and cross-section. The microstructure morphology at the different depth was determined by optical microscope. The results show grain size is increasing with the depth, and the microhardness and compressive residual stress decrease gradually. In terms of corrosion resistance, the 50 μm depth specimen has the best property than other depth, which the potential and corrosion current density are-0.484 V and-5.72 Acm-2, respectively. The maximum polarization resistance is 2055 Ωcm2by capacitive arc radius of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy.

Ti-6A-l4V alloy is widely used in implants and prosthesis applications. Although machining is a fast and economical process, the roughness generated can compromise corrosion resistance. Thus, the goal of this study was to overcome this limitation using thermal oxidation in machined surfaces. Samples with polished surfaces were used for comparison purposes. Two sets of machining parameters were used to generate different roughness, property evaluated in polished and machined samples before and after thermal oxidation. Vickers microhardness and polarization tests using simulated body fluid (SBF) were also performed. Thermal oxidation generated similar microhardness for polished and machined samples, higher than for polished and non-oxidized condition. On the other hand, oxidation increased the roughness only for polished condition. The corrosion resistance was improved in all oxidized samples, and the best result was found to the intermediate roughness (Ra = 0.76 um), in a machined sample. The results demonstrated that thermal oxidation can be used to overcome machining limitations regarding corrosion resistance, achieving behavior even better than polished samples.

A method of molten salt replacement was used to prepare an Al coating on Mg-Li alloy at different temperatures. The thickness, microstructure, phase composition and corrosion electrochemical analysis of the coating treated at different temperatures were analyzed. The corrosion resistances of the specimens with and without optimal coating were comparatively evaluated. Results show that, the optimal treatment temperature is 350 °C, at which a thickness of 9.15 μm coating is formed. In the Al coatings, Al exists as the form of Mg17Al12 and AlLi. The corrosion resistance is much better than that of the specimen without coating.

C6F12O has been introduced as the potential alternative gas to SF6 because of its excellent insulation properties and great eco-friendly performance. Considering that C6F12O may react with the internal materials of switchgears in practical applications, its compatibility with metal materials must be tested to evaluate its long-term application possibilities. In this work, the compatibility of C6F12O–N2 gas mixtures with aluminum and copper was tested at different temperatures by setting up a heat-aging reaction platform between the gas and each metal. The metal surface morphology and gas composition before and after the reaction were compared and analyzed. The results show that the surface color of the copper sheet changed considerably, and the corrosion degree of the surface deepened with the increase of temperature. The decomposition of C6F12O was also promoted. In contrast, aluminum did not react severely with the gas mixture. The compatibility of the gas mixture with aluminum was generally better than that of copper.

Corrosion is a serious problem in every industry and can cause losses in production leading to large financial losses. International legisation body has drawn offshore chemical into several categoris based on biodegradation, bioaccumulation and toxicity. Otherwise, the inhibitor is not accept to be used as they are harmful to environment. Therefore, most industries are looking for green inhibitor for An electrochemical test has been carried out to determine the corrosion rate of carbon steel. This research aimed to investigate the potential corrosion of carbon steel in seven different immersion periods ( 1 day, 2 days, 7 days, 14 days, 21 days , 28 days, 35 days) using seawater 3.5 % NaCl. The pH values were set in neutral in static condition. The materials were run for tafel polarization with a scan rate of 0.5mV/sec. Each sample will be tested when achieve a predetermined time. This experiment was carried out to compare the corrosion rate of 3.5% NaCl and with NaCl added 25% inhibitor. Inhibitors used were from banana trunk. The experiments were carried out at four different temperatures (5°C, 10°C, 20°C and 30°C). Before and after testing, the microstructures of each sample were observed by using Optical Microscope (OM). The results show the highest corrosion rate occurring in the shortest period of immersion for 1 day. However, the corrosion rate decreases when the longer period of immersion. The corrosion rate for 3.5% NaCl will increase with added 25% inhibitor and decrease for 3.5% NaCl when temperature decreases.

This paper applied the micro-arc oxidation technology to TIG weld joint based on titanium alloy. The optical microscope, SEM, XRD and polarization curve were used to analyze the joints metallographic phase, the coating morphology, the phase composition and corrosion resistance. Research results showed that the grain was grew gradually coarser from base metal to joint. The joint surface obtained a uniform morphology after micro-arc oxidation. The joint and base metal was made up of α-Ti and their coatings are mainly composed by rutile-TiO2. The surface morphology and phase composition are similar after micro-arc oxidation. Polarization curve tests demonstrated that the corrosion potential performance of the coating was enhanced by micro-arc oxidation.

As-cast AM60 magnesium alloy was solid dissolved under a high-pressure of 4 Gpa at different temperatures. The microstructure of the products was observed by optical microscope and the corrosion resistance of the products was investigated. The results show that increasing temperature during solution treatment promotes the dissolution into α-Mg matrix of β-Mg17Al12 in the alloy and improves the corrosion resistance of AM60 alloy, especially for over 400 °C.

Abstract The corrosion behavior of oxidized and vacuum annealed Zr-1%Nb alloy was investigated at 450 C (842 F) in air and pressurized steam. The corrosion resistance of partially dissolved oxide films was found to decrease with the increase in the vacuum annealing temperature up to 600 C (1112 F). A linear relationship between the logarithm of the oxidation rate and the annealing temperature was obtained from which an activation energy of 39.5 K.cal/mole was calculated. The activation energy was found to be independent of the corrosive medium. The increase in corrosion rate is explained on the fact that oxygen ion vacancy gradient increases with the increase in the annealing temperature. The decrease of the corrosion rate in steam after vacuum annealing is attributed to the release of H2 and H during the treatment process.
