A slip system refers to a metallurgical occurrence when deformation planes are formed on a metal's surface or its intergranular boundaries due to applied forces. It is the primary criteria for plastic deformation in a material, which may make it more susceptible to failure or corrosion. View Full Term

Free Webinar: Flange Isolation and Remote Monitoring
Drinking water travels through metallic pipes. The corrosion rate depends upon dissimilar metals used in pipes and water parameters such as dissolved oxygen levels, pH value, and contaminants. Coatings must meet regulatory standards.

Electrochemical reactions on the internal surfaces of gas pipelines can result in corrosion and, ultimately, gas leaks, fires and explosions. Here we...
During the installation of pipelines with multilayer coating systems, it is not uncommon for delamination to occur in the cutback area of the girth weld. We will take a look at preventive measures that can help in addressing this type of coating failure.

In August of 2000, the 30-inch diameter El Paso Natural Gas Company pipeline exploded in New Mexico resulting in 12 deaths and millions of dollars in damages. Proper corrosion protection and inspection could have prevented this disaster.
New economical rehabilitation technologies show promise in extending the operation life of critical assets. A review of a recent EPA study on two commercially available in-situ trenchless lining systems: spray-on linings and cured-in-place pipes (CIPP).
