Understanding Carburization: The Positive and Negative Impacts on Metals
Carburization and other case hardening methods are used to manufacture durable, low-cost low carbon steels and low alloy steels with...
Corrosion Resistance in Reinforced Concrete Structures
Although steel reinforcement is embedded in the concrete, it is still vulnerable to corrosion. This corrosion deteriorates the bars and...
Further Tests to Determine a Proper Lining System for Process Vessels
Most process vessels in the oil and gas industry are constructed from carbon steel, which corrodes under the harsh chemical and high-heat...
An Introduction to Hydrogen Embrittlement
Hydrogen embrittlement is the result of the absorption of hydrogen by susceptible metals, resulting in the loss of ductility and reduction...
Choosing a Fit-for-Service Lining System for Process Vessels
Most process vessels in the oil and gas industry are constructed from carbon steel, which corrodes under harsh chemical, heat and pressure...
The Role of Chromium in Intergranular Corrosion
Stainless steel alloys owe their anti-corrosive properties to chromium, which grants a passivation effect to both ferrite and austenite...
