  1. 16. Atmospheric corrosion of copper and copper-based alloys in architecture : from native surface oxides to fully developed patinas

    Author : Tingru Chang; Inger Odnevall Wallinder; Tomas Prošek; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : Copper and copper-based alloys are commonly used in both ancient and modern architecture. This requires an in-depth fundamental and applied understanding on their atmospheric corrosion behavior at different climatic, environmental and pollutant levels and how these parameters influence e.g. READ MORE

  2. 17. Corrosion Behavior of HVAF-Sprayed Bi-Layer Coatings

    Author : Esmaeil Sadeghimeresht; Nicolaie Markocsan; Per Nylén; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Thermal spray coating; HVAF; Corrosion protection; Galvanic corrosion; Composition; Microstructure; EIS; Polarization; OCP; Production Technology; Produktionsteknik; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik;

    Abstract : In a variety of engineering applications, components are subjected to corrosive environment. Protective coatings are essential to improve the functional performances and/or extend the lifetime of the components. READ MORE

  3. 18. DFT calculations of initial localized corrosion of aluminum : Influence of aqueous ad-layer, chloride ions, and intermetallic particles

    Author : Min Liu; Jinshan Pan; Ying Chen; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aluminum alloys; alumina; chloride; surface adsorption; aqueous ad-layer; localized corrosion; corrosion initiation; work function; micro-galvanic effect; density-functional theory; Volta potential; scanning kelvin probe force microscopy; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Localized corrosion of aluminum (Al, here including Al alloys) involves a series of physico-chemical processes at the interface between the metal and the aqueous ad-layer or the aqueous solution. The mechanisms that govern localized corrosion are quite complex and have been the subject of many experimental studies. READ MORE

  4. 19. Bipolar electrochemistry for high throughput screening applications

    Author : Sara Munktell; Fredrik Björefors; Maria Hahlin; Tautgirdas Ruzgas; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bipolar electrochemistry; electrodeposition; corrosion; screening; gradients; recycling; gold nanoparticles; Scanning Droplet Cell; Hard x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy; pitting corrosion; Kemi med inriktning mot materialkemi; Chemistry with specialization in Materials Chemistry;

    Abstract : Bipolar electrochemistry is an interesting concept for high throughput screening techniques due to the ability to induce gradients in a range of materials and their properties, such as composition, particle size, or dopant levels, among many others. One of the key advantages of the method is the ability to test, create or modify materials without the need for a direct electrical connection. READ MORE

  5. 20. Nitrogen and Water in High Temperature Corrosion - Insights from First Principle Calculations

    Author : Vedad Babic; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; DFT; alumina; nitridation; corrosion; chromia; hydrogen;

    Abstract : Service life-time of alloys used in high temperature applications is often limited by corrosion. FeCrAl(Re) alloys are partially designed to form a protective α-alumina oxide scale at elevated  temperatures in order to mitigate further oxidation. READ MORE
