    Corrosion of aged and annealed 18 Ni 250 grade maraging steel in phosphoric acid medium
    (2010) Poornima, T.; Nayak, J.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.
    The corrosion behavior of aged and annealed sample of 18 Ni 250 grade maraging steel was investigated in phosphoric acid over a range of acid concentration and solution temperature by using electrochemical techniques like Tafel extrapolation and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The studies have revealed that the corrosion rate of both aged and annealed samples increase with increase in temperature and increase in concentration of phosphoric acid in the medium. The corrosion rate of annealed sample is found to be less than that of aged sample. The thermodynamic parameters like activation energy, enthalpy of activation and entropy of activation for the corrosion process were calculated. © 2010 by ESG.

    Studies on corrosion of annealed and aged 18 Ni 250 grade maraging steel in sulphuric acid medium
    (2010) Poornima, T.; Jagannatha, N.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.
    The corrosion behavior of aged and annealed sample of 18 Ni 250 grade maraging steel was investigated in varied conditions of concentration and temperature of sulphuric acid medium, using electrochemical techniques like Tafel polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results obtained from both the techniques are in good agreement. These results have shown increase in corrosion rate of aged specimen with increase in concentration and temperature of sulphuric acid. With increase in concentration of sulphuric acid from 0.025 M to 0.25 M the corrosion rate of annealed sample was found to increase, but there after in 0.5 M, 0.75 M and 1 M, the rate of corrosion decreases, indicating passivation of alloy surface at higher concentration of sulphuric acid. The corrosion rate of aged specimen was found to be higher than that of the annealed specimen. Similar observations are revealed by SEM images. The thermodynamic parameters like activation energy, enthalpy of activation and entropy of activation were calculated.

    3,4-Dimethoxybenzaldehydethiosemicarbazone as corrosion inhibitor for aged 18 Ni 250 grade maraging steel in 0.5 M sulfuric acid
    (2011) Poornima, T.; Nayak, J.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.
    The corrosion inhibition of the aged 18 Ni 250 grade maraging steel in 0.5 M sulfuric acid by 3,4-dimethoxybenzaldehydethiosemicarbazone(DMBTSC) has been investigated by potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS) techniques. The inhibition efficiency increased with the increase in inhibitor concentration and decreased with the increase in temperature. Polarization curves indicated mixed type inhibition behavior affecting both cathodic and anodic corrosion currents. The thermodynamic parameters of corrosion and adsorption processes were evaluated. The adsorption of DMBTSC on the aged maraging steel surface was found to obey the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model, and the calculated Gibb's free energy values confirm the spontaneous adsorption. The results obtained by the two techniques were in good agreement. © 2010 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.

    Effect of 4-(N,N-diethylamino)benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone on the corrosion of aged 18 Ni 250 grade maraging steel in phosphoric acid solution
    (2011) Poornima, T.; Nayak, J.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.
    4-(N,N-diethylamino)benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone (DEABT) was studied for its corrosion inhibition property on the corrosion of aged 18 Ni 250 grade maraging steel in 0.67M phosphoric acid at 30-50°C by potentiodynamic polarization, EIS and weight loss techniques. Inhibition efficiency of DEABT was found to increase with the increase in DEABT concentration and decrease with the increase in temperature. The activation energy Ea and other thermodynamic parameters (?Gads0, ?Hads0, ?Sads0) have been evaluated and discussed. The adsorption of DEABT on aged maraging steel surface obeys the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model and the inhibitor showed mixed type inhibition behavior. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.
