The corrosion process was monitored in 3.5% HCI by mass loss and electrochemical techniques at 30, 40, 50, 60 and 90 ℃. Addition of AMC and PTI increased the inhibition efficiency with the highest inhibition efficiency obtained with PTI blend- ed extract. The blends behaved as mixed type inhibitors and were spontaneously adsorbed on mild steel surface in exothermic nature. Synergistic parameters of the intensifier ions revealed cooperative effect. Kinetic data treatment indicated increase in energy barrier by intensifier ions. The results demonstrate that elephant grass extract blended with halide ions can act as alternative ecofriendly inhibitor for mild steel at elevated temperatures.展开更多

The phase formation conditions for corrosion resistance and its effects were researched. The super-saturation solid station solution of Mo+ and C+ atoms was formed in Mo+C dual implanted steel. Precipitate phase with nanometer size Fe2Mo, FeMo, MoC, Fe5C3 and Fe7C3 were formed in dual implanted layer. The passivation layer consisted of these nanometer phases. The corrosion resistance of the dual implanted layer was better than that of single Mo implantation. Jp of the Mo implanted sample is 0.55 times that of H13 steel. The corrosion resistance of the dual implantation was enhanced when ion dose increased. When the Mo+ ion dose was 6×1017/cm2 in the dual implantation, Jp of the dual implanted sample was only 0.11 times that in H13 steel. What is important is that pitting corrosion properties of dual implanted steel were improved obviously.展开更多

The property of corrosion resistance dual-implanted (C+Ti) H13 steel is studied using multi-sweep cyclic voltammetry. TEM images of the cross section of an implanted sample reveal plenty of circular nanometer structures with diameters of 10–30 nm. The phases are densely embedded in the implanted layer. The embedded structure improves the surface corrosion resistance, as can be observed with a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The phases with the shape of a tiny wire in nanometer size are formed. The nanometer phases, consisting of TiC, FeTi and FeTi2, are formed in dual implanted layer. The corrosion current peak density decreases to 1/16–1/10 that of the unimplanted H13 steel. The formation conditions of the nanometer phases and their effects are investigated. The passivation layer consists of nanometer phases. The corrosion resistance of the dual implantation can be further enhanced with an increase in ion dose.展开更多
