The perovskite (La0.75Sr0.25)Cr0.5Mn0.5O3 (LSCM) is shown to be an effective, redox-stable electrode that can used for both cathode and anode SOFC operation, provide a symmetrical fuel cell system with good performance characteristics.
During the last few decades, an enormous effort has been made to understand corrosion phenomena and their mechanisms, elucidate causes that dramatically influence service lifetime of metal materials [...]
The use of supplementary cementitious materials such as fly ash, slag, and silica fume improve reinforced concrete corrosion performance, while decreasing cost reducing environmental impact compared to ordinary Portland cement. In this study, the behavior AISI 1018 carbon steel (CS) 304 stainless (SS) reinforcements was studied for 365 days. Three different mixtures were tested: 100% CPC (composite cement), 80% 20% (SF), ash (FA). designed according ACI 211.1 standard. specimens immersed in...
Herein, pH-sensitive microcapsules containing NaNO2 corrosion inhibitors for protection of steel reinforced concrete were synthesized via water-in-oil-in-water (W/O/W) double emulsion using colophony as the wall material. The average microcapsule size was 79.07 μm in diameter and exhibited a high encapsulation efficiency 83.2%. Study release from deionized water (DI water, pH 6.8), carbonate/bicarbonate buffer solution (CBS, 9.1), simulated pore (SCPS, 12.6) demonstrates that are sensitive...
Corrosion of steel-reinforced concrete exposed to marine environments could lead structural catastrophic failure in service. Hence, the construction industry is seeking novel corrosion preventive methods that are effective, cheap, and non-toxic. In this regard, inhibitive properties sodium phosphate (Na3PO4) inhibitor have been investigated for carbon steel reinforcements 0.6 M Cl− contaminated simulated pore solution (SCPS). Different electrochemical testing has utilized including...
Abstract The transmission lines most frequently used in corrosion studies are discussed. interpretation of impedance data for cylindrical pores, and irregularly-shaped noncylindrical fre...
