Intergranular corrosion in metals and alloys

Intergranular corrosion in metals and alloys

This occurs especially inside metals and alloys or in the areas closed to the metal grain limit. This attack can have consequences such as mechanical integrity failure, localised perforation and fluid losses in pipes and equipment, resulting from a...

Microbiological Influence on Corrosion (MIC)

Microbiological Influence on Corrosion (MIC)

This type of corrosion is one of the most common types in systems and equipment containing water, especially in cooling systems. At the same time, it is one of the less known and more complex types of corrosion.  Three main corrosion processes can...

High temperature corrosion

High temperature corrosion

It is complicated to categorically define high temperature without defining first the specific alloy system. The high temperature for a particular metal or alloy can be approximately 30 to 40% of the melting point. Failures resulting from operation...
