Every year, about US$2.5 trillion is lost to corrosion globally. That’s more than 3 percent of the global GDP. But the concern over metal corrosion is not solely a financial issue. It’s one of safety ...

In the growing maritime AM segment, a small number of alloy types have risen to the top and chief among them are ...

In previous Power Engineering articles, we examined the importance of trace iron monitoring to determine the extent of carbon steel corrosion in heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) condensate and ...

Corrosion is a historical and persistent challenge for aircraft, affecting both metal structures (as electrochemical deterioration or "rust") and wooden components, where it manifests as "dry rot" ...

Corrosion in metals can lead to the structural fatigue or failure of bridges, pipelines, and plane fuselages. Anti-corrosion coatings help prevent this, but they become ineffective when pierced, ...

Following on from news out of the University at Buffalo earlier this year that a graphene varnish could significantly slow the corrosion of steel, researchers from Monash and Rice Universities have ...

MIT scientists have found that aluminum oxide provides “healing”-like features when applied as a thin protective coating layer to other metals. Almost all metals, except gold, tend to oxidize when ...

Lithium-metal battery anodes can store 10-fold more energy by weight than those in today’s best batteries, but they have been too unstable to be practical. Now, researchers have borrowed technology ...

Chemical etching (also called photochemical etching, photo etching, or chemical milling) is a precision manufacturing method ...
