In the last years, geothermal power has become a reliable and significant energy source. Because service conditions in geothermal facilities from deeply located aquifers are usually critical in terms of corrosion, materials selection is a very important issue. Preliminary evaluation of the materia ... [Corrosion 68, 016001 (2012)] published Sun Jan 01, 2012.

Anodic and cathodic polarization of zinc was carried out in 0.1 M sodium chloride (NaCl) solution with pH ranging from 1 to 13. The electrochemical data was then contrast to thermodynamic chemical equilibrium diagrams. The analysis shows that, in general, variations in corrosion of zinc with pH ar ...

St-37-type steel samples were pretreated with Cr(III) and Cr(VI) conversion coatings (CC). The Cr(III) pretreated samples were then posttreated by Co(II) and Ni(II) CC. The corrosion resistance of the samples was studied using direct current (DC) polarization technique and electrochemical impedanc ... [Corrosion 68, 015008 (2012)] published Sun Jan 01, 2012.
