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.

Corrosion test of galvanized steel and copper (Cu) has been carried out in three different aqueousenvironments e.g. 5% NaCl solution, sea water and rain water by immersion test technique. Corrosion rate ismeasured in mdd (mg/dm2/day) unit. Corrosion characteristics of the corroded samples are investigated by XRD,XRF and SEM analysis. Irrespective of the exposure duration, Cu is seen better corrosion resistant thangalvanized steel in 5% NaCl solution. Cu corrosion behavior is similar in 5% NaCl solution and the sea wateras well. Formation of protective Cu2O scale on Cu surface is believed to decrease its corrosion rate withincreasing exposure time both in 5% NaCl solution and sea water. Pitting corrosion occurs on Cu surface. Forvery short time exposure Cu is more corrosion resistant but galvanized steel becomes more useful than Cu forlonger exposure in rain water.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jme.v43i2.17828

Corrosion-resistant metals and alloys towards liquid metals determine the service performances and lifetime of the devices employing liquid metals. This paper studies the static corrosion behaviors of iron, chromium, nickel, low carbon steel, and four types of stainless steels (SS410, SS430, SS304, SS316L) in liquid Sb-Sn at 500 oC, aiming to screen corrosion-resistant SS for Li||Sb-Sn liquid metal batteries (LMBs). The corrosion rates of Fe and Ni are 0.94 μm h-1 and 6.03 μm h-1 after 160 h’s measurement, respectively. Cr shows a low corrosion rate of < 0.05μm h-1, which is due to the formation of a relatively stable Cr-Sb layer that may be able to prevent the interdiffusion between the solid substrate and liquid Sb-Sn. Ni has a high corrosion rate because the formed Ni-Sb and Ni-Sn compounds are soluble in the liquid Sb-Sn. The corrosion products of both pure metals and SS can be predicted by thermodynamic and phase diagram analysis. Among the four types of SS, SS430 shows the best corrosion resistance towards liquid Sb-Sb with a corrosion rate of 0.19 μm h-1. Therefore, a liquid Sb-Sn resistant material should have a high Cr content and a low Ni content, and this principle is applicable to design metallic materials not only for LMBs but also for other devices employing liquid Sb- and Sn-containing liquid metals.

The corrosion behavior of the sputter-deposited nanocrystalline W-Cr alloys wasstudied in 0.5 M NaCl and alkaline 1 M NaOH solutions at 25°C, open to air usingimmersion tests and electrochemical measurements. Chromium metal acts synergisticallywith tungsten in enhancing the corrosion resistance of the sputter-deposited W-Cr alloys soas to show higher corrosion resistance than those of alloy-constituting elements in both 0.5M NaCl and 1 M NaOH solutions. In particular, the nanocrystalline W-Cr alloys containing25-91 at% chromium showed about one order of magnitude lower corrosion rates (that is,about 1-2 × 10-3 mm.y-1) than those of tungsten and chromium metals even for prolongedimmersion in 0.5 M NaCl solution at 25°C. On the other hand, the corrosion rate of thesputter-deposited W-Cr alloys containing 25-75 at % chromium was decreased significantlywith increasing chromium content and showed lowest corrosion rates (that is, 1.5-2.0 × 10-3 mm.y-1) after immersed for prolonged immersion in 1 M NaOH solution. The corrosion ratesof these nanocrystalline W-(25-75)Cr alloys are nearly two orders of magnitude lower thanthat of tungsten and more than one order of magnitude lower corrosion rate than that ofsputter-deposited chromium metal in 1 M NaOH solution. The corrosion-resistant of all theexamined sputter-deposited W-Cr alloys in 0.5 M NaCl solution is higher than in alkaline 1M NaOH solution at 25°C. Open circuit potentials of all the examined W-Cr alloys areshifted to more noble direction with increasing the chromium content in the alloys afterimmersion for 72 h in both 0.5 M NaCl and 1 M NaOH solutions at 25°C, open to air.Keywords: Sputter deposition, nanocrystalline W-Cr alloys, corrosion test, electrochemicalmeasurement, NaCl and NaOH solutions.DOI:  10.3126/jncs.v25i0.3300Journal of Nepal Chemical Society Volume 25, 2010 pp 53-61

The passivation behavior of carbon steel rods of Nepal is studied in 1 M HCl, 0.5 M NaCl and 1 M NaOH solutions at 25°C, open to air using corrosion tests and electrochemical measurements. The corrosion rate of all the examined steel rods is significantly lower in 1 M NaOH solution (about 10-3 mm/y) than those in 0.5 M NaCl (about 10-2 mm/y) and 1 M HCl (about 101-102 mm/y) solutions. The corrosion rate of SR71 steel rod is remarkably lower (3.65 mm/y) than those of other four different steel rods (3-4 x 102 mm/y) of Nepal in 1 M HCl solution. The ennoblement of the open circuit potentials of all the examined steel rod specimens is clearly observed in 1 M NaOH solution than those in 0.5 M NaCl and 1 M HCl solutions. The open circuit potentials of the steel rods are in the passive potential regions of the iron wire in 1 M NaOH solution. Therefore, steel rods of different companies of Nepal showed significantly high corrosion resistance in 1 M NaOH solution at 25°C.DOI: 10.3126/jncs.v22i0.520Journal of Nepal Chemical SocietyVol. 22, 2007 pp.34-40

Mg-7Y-0.6Zr-xZn (x = 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, wt.%) alloys were prepared by the metal mould casting method. Effect of Zn content on the microstructures and corrosion behaviour were investigated. Results showed that microstructures were refined and volume fraction of secondary phase Mg24(YZn)5 was increased with increasing addition of Zn element. Results of electrochemical tests demonstrated that the corrosion potential of Mg-7Y-0.6Zr alloy was about -1.77 V, and, with addition of 0.5~2.0 wt.% Zn element, corrosion potential moved to more positive values than that of Mg-7Y-0.6Zr alloy. Mg-7Y-0.6Zr-0.5Zn alloy possessed the most positive corrosion potential of -1.53 V. The results of immersion test with different time also indicated that corrosion rate could be decreased by addition of 0.5~2.0 wt.% Zn, and Mg-7Y-0.6Zr-0.5Zn alloy exhibited the lowest 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.

This study investigates the corrosion rate and corrosion behavior of carbon steel pipe at constant condensed fluid from a geothermal power plant. The corrosion rate of the steel was determined by weight loss analysis, whereas the corrosivity of the condensate fluids was measured by a multimeter Hach HQ40d. The morphology of the corrosion products formed was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS), and x-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. Results showed that the corrosion rate in the liquid part of the condensate fluids is constant during the immersion period when water quality parameters are constant. Meanwhile, the corrosion rate of low carbon steel pipe decreases though with the longer exposure period in the condensate fluid. The decrease of metal corrodibility identical to the lower corrosion rate at a longer exposure time due to the protective corrosion layer formed. The corrosion products during immersion tests identified in the corrosion test were uniform with iron oxide in the form of FeO(OH) and Fe2O3*H2O.

Even though carbon steel is susceptible to corrosion degradation, carbon steel is widely used for applications in the industry. Impurities in steel composition are known to affect the mechanical and corrosion properties. There are many studies on the corrosion of steel, but for a specific application, further research still required. The present work is conducted to determine the effect of low concentration of sulfuric acid on the corrosion rate of power plant steel ASTM A213-T12 with a solution concentration from 0.01-0.05 M H2SO4. The corrosion rate was determined by using an immersion test as well as a polarization method using a potentiostat. The result shows that increasing the concentration of sulfuric acid molarity, the corrosion rate tended to increase. Furthermore, the effect of phosphor contents significantly affects the corrosion rate in which steel with high phosphor contents has a high corrosion rate.
