Ni-B coatings have gained a great deal of attraction due to their promising mechanical properties. Owing to tempting properties, Ni-B coatings have succeeded to find their applications in automotive, aerospace, petrochemical, ...

Chelating agents show very effective performance in different applications in the upstream oil and gas industry. This study presents a critical review of the application of chelating agents in acidizing, scale removal, ...

This work presents a recent investigation on corrosion behavior of carbon steel amine and ionic liquid based carbon dioxide absorbents. The first class focused on classical amine solutions: monoethanolamine (MEA), ...

pH-sensitive hydroxyapatite particles were loaded with cerium ions (Ce-HAP) and incorporated into polyolefin coatings applied on carbon steel. The Ce-modified hydroxyapatite particles were characterized by scanning electron ...

Iron sulfide scale is one of the main types of inorganic scales that block oil and gas wells. Iron sulfide has polymorph crystallinity structures, which complicate its dissolving and inhibition. Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is ...

This paper presents the results of a field study carried out on three reinforced concrete (RC) structures built in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s to determine the main load (environmental) and the resistance (for example, the ...

In this work cerium tri(bis(2-ethylhexyl)phosphate) (Ce(DEHP)3) particles were used as anti-corrosion pigments in epoxy coatings applied on steel coupons. The composition of the corrosion inhibitor was designed to introduce ...

The effect of temperature, time and rotation speed of FT-GTL process water on the corrosion rate of API X-120 carbon steel was investigated. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and potentiodynamic polarization techniques ...

Corrosion is a major cause of materials and equipment failure in the oil and gas industry, and its prevention is crucial to ensure reliability of the assets. Towards, this goal, Ni-B/AlN nanocomposite coatings were synthesized ...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the performances of three inhibitors in controlling corrosion of local mild steel products in distilled water and a simulated salt solution. Corrosion inhibition of mild steel ...
