Isocorrosion chart snapshot

 concept

  • Isocorrosion chart

Use

  • Estimate corrosion rates for an alloy
  • Select an alloy for a particular application with specific parameters

Definition

  • A plot of temperature versus electrolyte concentration, with lines depicting combination where similar corrosion rates are found

example


how to use it?
  • An application needs a temperature and concentration as depicted by point 1 in the image above.
  • We can plot it on the isocorrosion chart for that alloy and estimate the corrosion rate.
  • The design of the component and corrosion allowance can be decided accordingly.
  • A method to determine the suitability of the alloy for an application and electrolyte-temperature combination.

Video below for practical demo of the use of the chart!

CAREER OPTIONS IN CORROSION

  CAREER OPTIONS IN CORROSION The first time I studied corrosion was in 2009. The last 14 years have taught me one important thing - The path of a career in corrosion is not as straightforward as we are led to believe. Whether we are starting as a student of corrosion, or are entering the field after working as a non-corrosion person, there is always some career pathway that we are not aware of. There are research projects, certifications , audits, inspections , etc. EveryEng gave me the opportunity to share my learnings about the possible options in the field of corrosion . If you are someone who is starting or wants to switch to/between corrosion and its related fields, here is a short presentation for you! https://www.everyeng.com/mentor/course/view/3559864f 😀 Happy learning! 😀
