Although electrochemical corrosion refers to a corrosion mechanism it can be manifested in many forms. Galvanic, pitting and crevice corrosion are the most common ones. Galvanic corrosion occurs ...

Pitting, the “corrosion” portion of the mechanism, can significantly increase the propagation rate through the material (Figure 2). Pitting corrosion is the most prevalent layup-initiated ...

By unraveling the mechanisms behind the slags and their relationship to pitting corrosion, engineers and manufacturers can strive to create stainless steel components that are not only strong and ...

By unravelling the mechanisms behind the slags and their relationship to pitting corrosion, engineers and manufacturers can strive to create stainless steel components that are not only strong and ...

Full attention must be given to general corrosion resistance, selective corrosion resistance (by pitting and crevice attack) and stress corrosion cracking susceptibility in sour hydrogen sulphide ...

New deterministic and stochastic models for external pitting corrosion in underground pipelines can help improve integrity and reliability analyses. This concluding article applies these models to ...
