Localised corrosion damage is often mistaken for wear.

Design corrosion allowances cannot possibly accommodate localised corrosion rates of this magnitude.

The enamel coat shall not contain defects which could give rise to localised corrosion, in accordance with BS 3830.

Weathering and other damage to the pipeline coating can result in the steel being exposed to moist air or to the ground, causing localised corrosion problems.

These are often complex shapes with open or hollow sections which collect road dirt with salt or other chemicals causing serious localised corrosion.

The pipeline integrity risk can be reduced with the use of corrosion inhibitors to manage localised corrosion created by H2 S and water.

At any gap or discontinuity, localised corrosion of the steel will occur at a rate that may well be considerably more than for bare steel.

Recent work has focused on the use of electrochemical techniques to detect the early stages of localised corrosion and to assess the rate of corrosion taking place at specific locations in aircraft.

Crevice Corrosion Intense localised corrosion, ranging from small pits to extensive corrosion over the whole surface, can occur within narrow crevices that may be formed by:-The geometry of the structure, e.g. riveted plates, threaded joints etc.

Localized corrosion can continue and accelerate under build ups of rust.

Fundamental studies of the transport processes during localized corrosion.

Here an environment has been inadvertently established where there could be very significant microbial activities leading to localized corrosion of the concrete walls.

Concentration cells can form in the deposits of corrosion products, leading to localized corrosion.

But in recent years I have been more preoccupied with understanding the processes of localized corrosion, and pitting is one clearly important form of that.

Localized corrosion of metals and alloys.

A discontinuous coating may lead to localized corrosion, creating a worse situation than having no applied coating.

Crevice corrosion can be viewed as a less severe form of localized corrosion when compared with pitting.

Microbial adhesion and subsequent biofilm formation on immersed aqueous surfaces can lead to localized corrosion.

Deposit corrosion Localized corrosion under or around a deposit or collection of material on a metal surface.

Pitting corrosion, or pitting, is a form of extremely localized corrosion that leads to the creation of small holes in the metal.

Localized corrosion of metals and alloys, with particular interest in pitting and crevice corrosion of stainless steels.

Chloride anions induce both localized corrosion (pitting corrosion) and generalized corrosion of steel reinforcements.

On corrosion of metals and alloys, with special interest in localized corrosion; corrosion of stainless steels in sea-water; materials for concentrated acid production.

Fatigue crack initiation and growth in the presence of localized corrosion has been recognized as one of the degradation mechanisms that affect the durability and integrity of aging aircraft structures.

For example, in one study, localized corrosion was found to penetrate into unprotected (unpainted) steel to a depth of 0.8 to 1.9 mm after one winter of typical driving in Hamilton (3).

Commemoration prize of science (Nishiyama commemoration prize) in 2014 from The Iron and Steel Institute of Japan by "study of localized corrosion of steel material".

Localized corrosion events of less than 5 micro-amps per square centimeter can be measured and mapped, and the use of fine tipped platinum probes allow spatial resolution of a few tens of micrometers to be achieved.

As early as in 1962, he introduced the concept of a protection potential against the propagation of localized corrosion , which he developed in 1963, in relation with the peculiar electrochemical conditions in occluded electrochemical cells.

Alloy Description: A heat-treatable, deep section hardenable, very high strength Ti alloy possessing good toughness/strength properties, low elastic modulus and elevated resistance to stress and localized corrosion in high temperature sweet and sour brines.

ISPIR integrates data acquisition using fibre optic sensors and data management in a real-time fashion, providing continuous monitoring of the pipeline to detect general and localized corrosion, cracks and leaks, and to identify the specific pipe sections where defects develop.
