Corrosion is a chemical reaction to which even the strongest structures fall victim. Metals such as steel react with oxygen and water, going on to rust and decay. Cathodic protection plays a key role ...

A 1998 EPRI study, released in October of 2001, estimated the cost of corrosion in 1998 to steam generating facilities alone at $5.37 billion. The study, EPRI Report 1004662, also concluded that 22 ...

Cathodic corrosion protection is widely used, but how it works exactly has been unclear and disputed by experts. ETH researchers propose a mechanism that resolves the apparent contradictions between ...

Cathodic protection is a globally used technique to control the corrosion of a metal surface in a harsh environment. Owing to the efficient and reliable corrosion protection technology, the Cathodic ...

After more than 10 years of testing, Subsea Industries, a Hydrex company, has launched the rudder protection coating, Ecoshield, for permanent protection against cavitation damage for rudders. The ...

WHILE SOME corrosion-control treatments may be beneficial, a UB professor has proven in laboratory experiments that one rust-proofing treatment billed as protecting motor vehicles against the ravages ...
