oxidation-reductioncorrosioncontextualizationThe contextualization of chemistry is of great importance to our society as it allows to bring this science to students of secondary education thus facilitating the learning process, so that students can identify and explain the phenomena that occur around. As ...
Corrosion is proceeded both by oxidation and reduction processes and metal corrosion is the result of the oxidation process. The aggressiveness of acidic solutions (industries involving acid pickling, acid cleaning, acid descaling, and oil-well acidizing) and basic solutions (marine field) easily ...
Formation of a corrosion-resistant coating on zinc by a duplex plasma electrolytic oxidation and conversion surface treatment A two-step, environmental-friendly process is proposed to improve the corrosion resistance of zinc. The first step involves plasma electrolytic oxidation (... Joseph, JithinGallo...
Corrosion, or oxidation, is a change in the properties of metal caused by chemical reactions between contaminants and metal surfaces. Within electronics, this change in chemical properties also results in a change in the conductivity of the metal. These conductivity changes often result in spurious ...

Corrosion of metals is the spontaneous chemical (oxidative) destruction of metals under the effect of their environment. Most often it follows an electrochemical mechanism, where anodic dissolution (oxidation) of the metal and cathodic reduction of an oxidizing agent occur as coupled reactions. ...
Corrosion of metals is an electrochemical process, composed of anodic (metal oxidation) and cathodic (reduction) reactions occurring on a surface. The rates of these reactions are measured as current densities (in units of A m2). On a single piece of metal, the anodic and cathodic current ...
The oxidation-reduction reactions of metals become stronger over time, and eventually metals lose their original capacity. The damage to metal materials caused by metal corrosion is controlled and preventable compared with the damage caused by other natural disasters [3]. According to the available ...
To avoid oxidation, the process chamber is filled by the inert gas argon. This way, it is possible to reach a minimum residual oxygen content of 0.13 to 0.15 wt %. 2.1.3. Specimen Geometry With regard to cyclic testing under stress ratio R = 10, i.e. compression–compression, no ...
In the iron and steel-making industry, corrosion costs were most often incurred from material loss during high temperature oxidation and acid cleaning, representing roughly 60 and 20% of the total corrosion cost. Based on the questionnaires collected from the major steel companies in China, the di...
