The atmospheric corrosion of metallic materials causes great economic loss every year
worldwide. Thus, it is meaningful to predict the corrosion loss in different field environments …

Zinc is protected in the short term by chromate conversion coatings. The Cr (VI) based
surface layer has the unique ability to self-repair which is attributable to the aqueous …

This paper is the second of two that examines between the hygroscopic behavior of sea salt
aerosol proxies and the atmospheric corrosion of mild steel contaminated with them. In this …

The corrosion rates and the nature of the corrosion products on Zn, ZnAl and ZnMgAl
coatings on steel are determined for field exposures and for accelerated tests using different …

Effects of pH and Cl− concentration on the corrosion behavior of galvanized steel in
simulated rust layer (SRL) solution have been investigated using measurements of weight …

Steel structures significantly degrades owing to corrosion especially in coastal and industrial
areas where significant amounts of aggressive ions are present. Therefore, anodic metals …

The corrosion behaviour of pure zinc and zinc–magnesium–aluminium alloy (ZMA) has
been studied during 6 months of exposure in marine environment (Brest, France). The …

Atmospheric gases and particulate matter (PM) in contact with the material's surface lead to
chemical and physical changes, which in most cases cause degradation of the cultural …

Galfan coatings on steel in laboratory exposures with predeposited NaCl and cyclic wet/dry
conditions exhibit nearly the same corrosion products as after 5years of marine exposure. A …

Press hardening of hot-dip-galvanized steel sheet yields an innovative product with high
strength and reduced weight with drastically increasing industrial importance. This process …
