The article presents a review of literature which covers aspects of pitting corrosion observed
in metallic materials, focussing on events associated with nucleation of pits, ie passivity …

The necessity to reduce fuel consumption and gas emissions has revealed the need to use
materials with high specific strength. Aluminium (Al) matrix composites are widely used in …

The corrosion properties in NaCl solution of four equiatomic HEAs of the CoCrFeNi system
adding Al, Cu and Sn are investigated. These alloys are processed by vacuum arc melting …

The corrosion characteristics of passive films on 1060, 2024 and 5083 aluminum alloys
formed in citric acid solution are studied in Cl–-containing solutions by combining scanning …

The pitting resistance of SS316L, SS304, SS430, and pure Fe was studied in chloride-
containing solution. Among these alloys, SS316L exhibits the highest pit initiation rate, but …

A debate about the critical step in localized corrosion has raged for decades. Some
researchers focus on the composition and structure of the passive film associated with the …

The pitting corrosion mechanism of high strength pipeline steel in aerated NaCl solutions
with different pH and chloride content was investigated, using potentiodynamic polarization …

An LY12 aluminum alloy was coated with a self-assembled dodecyl phosphate film by
employing a novel surface-modification protocol based on the chemisorption of sodium …

This study demonstrates the enhanced Cu2+ adsorption capability of polyaniline nanofibers
(PAni NFs) by doping of phytic acid. The PAni NFs were synthesized by radical …

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and time-of-flight secondary ions mass
spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) analyses were performed to characterize the interaction of Cu with …
