A systematic study of the corrosion and passivation behaviour of cobalt in aqueous solutions
of different pH was carried out. Open circuit potential measurements, polarization …

For the first time, cobalt oxide films that are highly protective against localized corrosion and
depicting a wide variety of bright and uniform colors due to light interference, have been …

In this work, the influence of varying the Mo content in a biomedical grade Co-28.2 Cr-5.5
Mo (CCM) alloy on the microstructure and electrochemical behavior was evaluated. Four …

The behavior of a CoCrMo alloy and its components was studied in simulated physiological
solution (Hank's solution) using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance …

Passivation and corrosion behaviour of the cobalt and cobalt-base alloy Co30Cr6Mo was
studied in a simulated physiological solution containing chloride and bicarbonate ions and …

The mechanism of near-neutral pH stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of natural gas pipelines
has not been well-established since the first accident was found in the 1980s. In particular …

The passivity and pitting behavior of A516-70 carbon steel in chromate solutions were
studied using electrochemical measurements. The anodic Tafel slopes in the active region …

The effect of complexing agents on Co oxidation/dissolution in alkaline solution was
investigated for Co chemical-mechanical polishing (CMP) and post-CMP cleaning …

Metallic materials used in biomedical applications have become increasingly important as
the number of various implanted devices, eg, orthopedic, cardiovascular, dental, and …

Copper interconnects for the sub-22 nm technology nodes are designed to have diffusion
