    Corrosion inhibition of 6061 Al-15 vol. pct. SiC(p) composite and its base alloy in a mixture of sulphuric acid and hydrochloric acid by 4-(N,N-dimethyl amino) benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone
    (2011) Geetha, G.M.; Nayak, J.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.
    The corrosion inhibition characteristics of 4-(N,N-dimethylamino) benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone (DMABT) on the corrosion behavior of 6061 Al-15 vol. pct. SiC(p) composite and its base alloy were studied at different temperatures in acid mixture medium containing varying concentrations of hydrochloric acid and sulphuric acid using Tafel extrapolation technique and ac impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The effect of inhibitor concentration, temperature and concentration of the acid mixture media on the inhibitor action was investigated. It was found that inhibition efficiencies increase with the increase in inhibitor concentration, but decrease with the increase in temperature and with the increase in concentration of the acid media. Thermodynamic parameters for dissolution process were determined. The adsorption of DMABT on both the composite and base alloy was found to be through physisorption obeying Freundlich adsorption isotherm. © 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Effect of heat treatment on pitting corrosion resistance of 6061 Al/SiCP composite coated by the cerium oxide film in 3.5 N NaCl solution
    (2011) Rajasekaran, S.; Udayashankar, N.K.; Nayak, J.
    One of the main drawbacks of 6061 Al/SiCP composite is its poor pitting corrosion resistance in the aggressive environment containing chloride ions, such as seawater, for example. The present article deals with the investigations of effects of aging on the corrosion behavior of 6061 Al/SiCP composite and of the heat treatment on the pitting corrosion resistance of 6061 Al/SiCP composite coated by cerium oxide prepared by chemical bath technique. Potentiodynamic polarization test was used to study the corrosion behavior of cerium oxide coatings in 3. 5N NaCl solution. The microstructure of cerium oxide was examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the formed phases were identified by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The pitting corrosion resistance of the cerium oxide coating was found to be improved after heat treatment at 300°C for 30 min. © 2011 Allerton Press, Inc.

    The corrosion inhibition of maraging steel under weld aged condition by 1(2E)-1-(4-Aminophenyl)-3-(2-Thienyl)prop-2-en-1-one in 1.5 M hydrochloric acid medium
    (Springer New York LLC barbara.b.bertram@gsk.com, 2012) Sanatkumar, B.S.; Nayak, J.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.
    The influence of 1(2E)-1-(4-Aminophenyl)- 3-(2-Thienyl)prop-2-en-1-one (ATPI) on the corrosion behavior of weld aged maraging steel in 1.5 M hydrochloric acid was studied by potentiodynamic polarization method and AC impedance (EIS) technique at different temperatures. The results showed that the inhibition efficiency of ATPI increased with the increase in the concentration of inhibitor and decreased with the increase in temperature. ATPI acts as a mixed type inhibitor without affecting the mechanism of the hydrogen evolution reaction or iron dissolution. The adsorption of ATPI on a weld aged maraging steel surface obeys the Langmuir adsorption isotherm equation. Both activation and thermodynamic parameters were calculated and discussed. ATPI inhibits the corrosion through both physisorption and chemisorption on the alloy surface. The surface morphology of the weld aged maraging steel specimens in the presence and the absence of the inhibitors was studied by the respective SEM images. © ACA and OCCA 2011.

    CORROSION BEHAVIOR OF 18% Ni M250 GRADE MARAGING STEEL UNDER WELD-AGED CONDITION IN SULFURIC ACID MEDIUM
    (2012) Sanatkumar, B.S.; Nayak, J.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.
    The corrosion behavior of 18% Ni M250 grade maraging steel under weld-aged condition was investigated in sulfuric acid medium of different concentrations (0.1-2 M) at different temperatures (30°-60°C). Electrochemical measurements were carried out using the potentiodynamic polarization technique and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results showed an increase in the corrosion rate with the increases in temperature as well with increase in the concentration of the corrosion medium. The results obtained from the Tafel extrapolation technique and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were in good agreement. Activation parameters were evaluated using the Arrhenius equation and transition state equation. The surface morphology of the corroded specimen was compared with that of the un-corroded sample by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). © 2012 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.
