Airborne chlorides are the suspended salt and gaseous content present in the atmosphere. It is measured through air concentration using the unit µg/m3. Because salt is corrosive, airborne chloride levels can affect corrosion significantly. Identifying its levels can greatly help in the… View Full Term

Learn about cathodic protection potential measurement, a method used to determine the adequacy of a cathodic protection system by comparing the measured potent
Fracture is simply the separation of a material into several pieces due to an applied stress. The type of fracture (ductile or brittle) that a material will undergo depends mainly on its ability to deform before it cracks.
A look at digital radiography for corrosion inspection of pipelines, including how it works, where it's used and the advantages compared to...
Calculating and measuring tensile stresses are vital in predicting the behavior of various types of materials. Designers and engineers frequently use tensile parameters to select materials that meet specific the strength and performance parameters.
Understanding the 3 types of tensile strengths help determine how components will perform when...
Ultrasonic technology uses sound waves to detect cracks and other pipeline defects. The early identification of these cracks is essential to preventing leaks, which can lead to product loss and in the oil and gas industry, and potential explosions.
