Most car bodies made for mass production are made from steel or aluminum. Both are strong metals, but steel is cheaper than aluminum and is more commonly used in lower-end cars for a broader consumer range. The weakness of steel compared to aluminum is that it is susceptible to corrosion under certain conditions, and thus it may deteriorate over time without proper care. To prevent corrosion, modern cars are coated with paint to prevent direct contact with the environment. As a second line of protection, a car battery can be connected to the body to create an impressed current cathodic …

BAU Journal - Science and Technology
Corrosion of reinforcing steel is the one of the main causes of deterioration in reinforced concrete structure. During the initial stage of corrosion, the steel volume increases. This creates tensile stresses in the concrete, which can eventually lead to cracking, delamination, and spalling. This potential risk of corrosion in a structure is quite unpredictable. Therefore, this paper examines the influence of accelerated corrosion on the bond between concrete and the coated and uncoated steel bars. The bar coating consisted of epoxy rich in zinc. Six concrete mixes were prepared. Three mixes had cement contents of 300, 400 and 500 Kg/m3 …

Journal of Marine Science and Technology
5456-H116 Al-Mg alloy has been broadly used in the U.S. Navy in order to meet the demand of reducing ship hull weight while considering high specific strength, corrosion resistance, and weldability. A particular concern of these alloy is sensitization, which causes it to be sensitized when highly anodic β phase (Al3Mg2) is precipitated at grain boundaries especially in service exceeding 65~200°C, leading to intergranular corrosion (IGC), exfoliation and stress corrosion cracking (SCC). This study investigated the reversal of sensitization of a naturally exfoliated 5456-H116 alloy plate by planned heating treatment with a short exposure to 250°C. The properties of sensitized …
