Wagner and Levin 1 have recently shown that metallic copper separates within the oxide scale formed on a 68/32 cupro-nickel alloy at 850° C. They considered that this was due to a reduction of cuprous ...

Applications such as chemical and marine equipment and oil and gas exploration require materials capable of resisting corrosion from seawater, mineral acids and salty environments. Complex aerospace ...

Mined chiefly from two ore families, sulfides and laterites, nickel is a shiny, silver-white, face-centred cubic transition metal that is hard, ductile, and easily alloyed. 1 Several features make it ...

A new method of deposition of Nickel alloy coatings on high-performance materials in engineering applications can replace environmentally toxic chrome coatings. The coatings obtained are also highly ...

These are bright-field (BF) scanning transmission electron microscope images, composed (Compo) elemental mappings, and illustrations of Cu alloy nanoparticles containing 30 percent Ni before and after ...

FDA will be holding a a public workshop on "Cardiovascular Metallic Implants: Corrosion, Surface Characterization, and Nickel Leaching" on March 8 and 9, 2012, from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. EST at the FDA ...

Earth's mantle is a restless, enigmatic engine that powers volcanism, recycles crust, and regulates the long-term evolution of the planet. But one of its most elusive characteristics—the redox state, ...

Developing a feedwater chemistry program that will minimize corrosion across a variety of metallurgies doesn’t have to be difficult. This article reviews the requirements for three common metallurgies ...

The extreme conditions of nuclear reactors expose their structural alloys to high temperatures, stress, corrosion, and irradiation damage. Therefore, nuclear alloys require materials with high ...
