In the helium-cooled lead-lithium (HCLL) design concept for blanket structures of a future fusion power plant, the eutectic Pb-15.7Li alloy is used as a liquid tritium breeder and is in direct contact with the structural material, e.g., ferritic-martensitic steels. Compatibility tests showed that ... [Corrosion 67, 026002 (2011)] published Tue Feb 01, 2011.

The corrosion behavior of AZ31, AZ80, and AZ91D Mg-Al-Zn alloys coated with aluminum and Al-11Si thermal spray was evaluated in 3.5 wt% sodium chloride (NaCl) solution at 22°C by gravimetric and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements. The corrosion products were examined using s ... [Corrosion 67, 025003 (2011)] published Tue Feb 01, 2011.

Large numbers of reinforced concrete (RC) structures that have been damaged from corrosion of steel reinforcements are rehabilitated with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites. This paper investigates active protection of the steel embedded in concrete that is treated with surface-bonded carbo ... [Corrosion 67, 025002 (2011)] published Tue Feb 01, 2011.

A simple and rapid electrochemical method for the evaluation of crevice corrosion in duplex stainless steels (DSS) is described. Three types of DSS—namely, UNS S32101, UNS S31803, and UNS S32750—were tested in 1 mol/L sodium chloride (NaCl) solutions. Results showed good reproducibility with a typ ...
