Practice quiz for coatings - 1

Practice, practice, practice... and you shall gain the certificate!

So here goes a new series, where I will post quizzes on various corrosion and coating topics.

This is for anyone who likes quizzes, and ESPECIALLY for those attempting exams!

So here goes the first one!  Subscribe to this blog for updates!

What is a Corrosion Loop - PART 2 - EXAMPLE

How to prepare a corrosion loop? To prepare a corrosion loop, the person in charge will look at the overall picture and answer the following questions - 1. What is the process? 2. What are the components? 3. What are the materials for each component? 4. What are the common features among them? 5. Where does the commonality end? -  This is important as that will mark the beginning of a new corrosion loop. 6. Can I use the same inspection procedure for all of them? 7. Do they corrode/get damaged in the same manner due to the same reasons? WATCH THE VIDEO FOR A DETAILED EXPLANATION -       Read part 1 here! https://corrospective.com/ 😀Happy learning! 😀

Electrochemical testing - 2 - What is a reference electrode?

What is a reference electrode? A reference electrode is used as a scale to measure the potential of the working electrode. Reversible reactions Just as a scale is unchanging, the potential and chemical conditions of the reference electrode should also be unchanging. Thus, it is necessary that the reactions - oxidation and reduction -  occurring inside a reference electrode are reversible. This ensures constant chemistry. No polarization It also ensures that there is no net polarization as both reactions occur simultaneously at different points in the reference electrode. this keeps its potential constant. Thus, the potential of any working electrode connected to this reference electrode will be dependent only on the conditions of the working electrode. This makes it easier to note the changes happening in the working electrode. Check out the video for a detailed explanation Done? Click here for Part 1 and PART 3 !
