Tiny pH-sensitive containers helped scratched water-based coatings keep corrosion at bay during demanding saltwater tests.

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 ...

A single application of a "smart" self-repairing coating is being developed to dramatically extend rust protection for ...

Cathodic corrosion protection is a widely used technique for protecting steel-based infrastructure from corrosion. ETH researchers have now clarified the detailed mechanisms involved, thereby ...

Corrosion of steel structures in electric transmission, distribution, and substation applications has been around for many years, but it’s getting more attention as electric utilities become more ...

Technical program explores cathodic protection, coatings, inspection, data analytics and asset integrity Pipeline ...

Corrosion of buried steel can be managed through one or some combination of the following four approaches: (1) the service life of the steel can be increased with additional steel incorporated into ...

Skyscrapers, bridges, ships, aeroplanes, cars – everything humans make or build sooner or later decays. The ravages of time are known as corrosion; nothing is safe from it. This makes the fight ...

Corrosion protection services mitigate environmental or chemical attack through the application or installation of coatings, liners, cathodic protection, sacrificial anodes and corrosion inhibitors.

Power plants depend on hundreds of valves and many different pumps to carry out operations 24/7. Good maintenance procedures—including routine tasks and predictive maintenance—are critical to keeping ...

Hyperbolic cooling towers remove heat from power plant condensers using natural draft. Air rises through the center of the tower, and hot water is discharged as a spray in the interior. The ...

Surface protection products and corrosion protection products are used to protect metal surfaces in marine, transportation, chemical processing, papermaking, and petroleum applications. Surface and ...
