Ni-Cr-Mo alloys are highly resistant to general and localized corrosion, but they may suffer crevice corrosion in aggressive environmental conditions, such as high-chloride concentrations, applied potentials, and temperatures. It is assumed that localized corrosion will only occur when the corrosio ... [Corrosion 66, 105002 (2010)] published Fri Oct 01, 2010.

One important factor affecting crevice corrosion of passive metals is the crevice geometry, e.g., the gap of the crevice. The crevice geometry can be affected by the properties of the materials used as the crevice formers, i.e., a polymeric crevice former can conform to the surface roughness of a m ...

The CuAg4at% alloy exhibits the anneal-hardening effect, which has been seen in previous investigations in both cast and sintered CuAg4at% alloys. The goal of this work was to study corrosion properties of the cast alloy in different stages of its synthesis and thermomechanical treatment. The elect ...
