The atmospheric corrosion of several Mg–Al alloys was investigated at − 4, 4 and 22 °C. The rate of corrosion increased with increasing temperature and decreasing Al content. Also, the effect of temperature became stronger with increasing Al content. The cast microstructure was found to influence...

This paper reports the recent findings on corrosion resistance of a new centrifugally cast austenitic corrosion resistant alloy (CRA), 46Ni-35Cr-9Mo, against severe sour gas environment. The sour service corrosion validation was carried out by sulphide stress cracking (SSC) using autoclaves with...

In this study, ultra-fine grained (UFG) structure was produced in the stir zone (SZ) of AA6005-T6 alloy joints using friction stir processing (FSP) cooled by liquid nitrogen (N2). Conventional friction stir welding (FSW) was used to fabricate reference joints. The corrosion properties of the cooled...

The atmospheric corrosion behavior of alloy AZ91D produced by a semi-solid metal (SSM) technique and by conventional high pressure die casting (HPDC) was investigated for up to 1176 hours in the laboratory. Alloy AZ91D in the SSM state was fabricated using a rheocasting (RC) technique in which the...
