Resources for a corrosion beginner

Image
By
Corrosion is a complex subject. It is difficult to pick and choose the starting point. It is very easy to spiral into a confused state of mind if the right resources are not available.

Hence, I write this blog post to list out a few books which are great if you are a corrosion enthusiast.

Here goes -

1. Corrosion Engineering by Mars. G Fontana
        I love this book and I always refer to it for my work.

2. Peabody's control of pipeline corrosion - 

3. Corrosion engineering - Principles and practice - Pierre Roberge


The website www.corrosion-doctors.org has a more extensive list of corrosion articles.

Other than that, there are online corrosion magazines which you can access -

1. Materials performance -  www.materialsperformance.com

2. corrosionpedia.com

3. CORROSION journal meridian.allenpress.com/corrosion -  it has a few open access articles.


Check out these resources as a starting point!

Coupon test for corrosion inhibitors

By
Concept Coupon test is used to gauge a material's corrosion rate in a corrosive environment. It is also used to test the efficiency of corrosion inhibitors. Parameters Material - The coupons are made from the same or similar material as that of the actual component Electrolyte - The electrolyte for exposure is the same or similar to the actual environment. Sometimes, coupons are placed in the actual environment with the component, for example in the soil with submerged pipelines. Steps Clean the coupon of any oil/grease/rust Measure the weight of original coupon - W Measure the Area of coupon to be exposed - A. Take photographs and/or optical micrographs of the coupon Immerse the coupon in the electrolyte without inhibitor Note the time of measurement - t. This is decided by the concerned parties or as per the standards followed. Take out the coupon after the time. Take photographs and/or optical micrographs of the coupon Clean the corrosion products off the coupon. DO NOT USE ROUG...
