Zirconium Zircadyne Applications

January 2, 2012

One of the major applications for Zircadyne® zirconium is as a structural material in the chemical processing industry. Zircadyne® zirconium exhibits excellent resistance to corrosive attack in most organic and inorganic acids,... Read More...

Introduction to Corrosion Resistance

September 24, 2011

The corrosion resistance of stainless steel arises from a passive, chromium-rich, oxide film that forms naturally on the surface of the steel. Although extremely thin at 1-5 nanometres (i.e. 1-5 x 10-9 metres) thick, this protect... Read More...

Corrosion Resistance of LDX 2101

July 23, 2011

The corrosion resistance of LDX2101 is generally good, and therefore is suitable for use in a wide range of general-purpose applications and environments. Attributable to its duplex structure, LDX 2101 offers an excellent resi... Read More...

Improved Corrosion Resistance

July 22, 2011

Heavy oxides from welding on steel can serve as a film on the surface and indicate the Chromium / Oxide underlying metals surface has been depleted of Chromium and can be a sight of initiation for corrosion mechanisms such as cre... Read More...

Corrosion Resistance of Duplex Stainless Steels

July 14, 2011

The range of duplex steels allows them to be matched for corrosion resistance with the austenitic and ferritic steel grades. There is no single measure of corrosion resistance. However, it is convenient to use the Pitting Resista... Read More...

Corrosion Resistance of Brass

July 8, 2011

Brass resistant to corrosion in many media.  Brasses are particularly susceptible to corrosion by solutions containing ammonia or amines. Alloys with more than about 15% of zinc may suffer dezincification, which leaves a weak,... Read More...
