Electrochemical Corrosion (electrochemical + corrosion)
Selected AbstractsBulk Nanoporous Metal for ActuationADVANCED ENGINEERING MATERIALS, Issue 8 2010Hai-Jun Jin Abstract Nanoporous metals prepared by controlled chemical or electrochemical corrosion of alloys can provide prototypical manifestations of bulk nanostructured material. Samples are readily prepared with dimensions at the millimeter or centimeter scale, while at the same time the microstructure is a homogeneous array of interpenetrating solid skeleton phase and pore channels with a characteristic size that can reach down to below 5,nm. The interest in nanoporous metals as functional materials derives from recent observations of unique materials behavior resulting from their extremely small structure size and their open porosity with large volume-specific surface area. As an example, this article discusses the possible use of nanoporous metal for actuation. [source] In vitro evaluation of the effect of a current bleaching agent on the electrochemical corrosion of dental alloysJOURNAL OF ORAL REHABILITATION, Issue 10 2002enay Canay summary, The nightguard bleaching of discoloured teeth is currently performed by using % 10 carbamide peroxide. While the material is effective on the bleaching of natural teeth, it may deteriorate crowns, bridges and amalgam restorations placed in the mouth. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of 10% carbamide peroxide on the electrochemical corrosion of various dental casting alloys used for fixed partial dentures and dental amalgam. Tafel extrapolation curves were obtained by the corrosion cell that facilitated simulation of the oral enviroment and comparison of the corrosion rates of alloys and amalgam was accomplished. The results revealed that unpolished amalgam and nickel-chromium alloy samples had the most and noble alloys had the least corrosion rate. [source] A review of metal release in the food industryMATERIALS AND CORROSION/WERKSTOFFE UND KORROSION, Issue 5 2006M. S. Jellesen Abstract The objective of this review is to outline literature on metal release in the food industry. Key results are reviewed from publications with high scientific level as well as papers with focus on industrial aspects. Examples of food products with a corrosive effect are given, and cases concerning processes, storing equipment as well as cleaning and sanitising procedures are reviewed. Stainless steel is the most widely used metallic material in the food industry; however other metals and their alloys are also briefly treated. The review deals with phenomena mainly relating to electrochemical corrosion, but also examples of material degradation as a consequence of wear and corrosive wear are presented. [source] Numerical Analysis of a Cyclical Loaded Construction under Corrosion DegradationPROCEEDINGS IN APPLIED MATHEMATICS & MECHANICS, Issue 1 2005W. Dudda A contribution for analytical and numerical tools that permits of a deterministic evaluation of structure behavior in external conditions, under multiparameter and/or cyclic mechanical, thermal and chemical loads, is the aim of this paper. Particular structure elements undergo the plastic and corrosion degradation and they dissipate energy, which consists of irreversible contributions, like a work on the inelastic strains. The construction and its unit lifetime are estimated according to a dissipated energy criterion. The paper emphasizes the modeling and numerical implementation of degradation effects, such as cyclic plasticity, generated by mechanical and thermal loads, stress corrosion, electrochemical corrosion and low-cyclic corrosion.
