In the current world, freshwater production by clean energy sources with minimum
environmental footprints is the main challenge for humankind which is dramatically …

This paper reviews the available literature relating to the emerging research into the
performance of coatings under combined wear and corrosion conditions. Understanding …

Duplex stainless steels consisting of ferrite and austenite are widely used due to their
excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. Compared with ferritic stainless …

This paper reviews the most recent available literature relating to the electrochemical
techniques and test procedures employed to assess tribocorrosion behaviour of passive …

The consequence of coupling wear (erosion/abrasion) and corrosion is not just simply the
sum of wear in the absence of corrosive medium and corrosion in absence of wear. The so …

The corrosion and tribocorrosion behaviors of AISI 316 stainless steel and Ti6Al4V alloys
sliding against Al 2 O 3 in artificial seawater using a pin-on-disk test rig were investigated …

Desalination is considered one of the most viable and technically feasible strategies for the
production of freshwater from saline solutions (brackish water, seawater and brine) …

A dense and adhesive oxide coating was in-situ formed on the surface of Ti 56 Zr 44 and (Ti
56 Zr 44) 95 Cr 5 alloys by thermal oxidation treatment in air. The structures and …

Cemented and thermal sprayed tungsten carbide are extensively used in a wide range of
applications, ranging from downhole drilling tools and oil and gas valves to gas turbine …

Recently, increasing efforts have been made to study the tribocorrosion mechanism and
influencing factors, and yet little relevant to the influence of electrolyte characteristics. In this …
