Density functional theory (DFT) as a powerful tool for designing new organic corrosion inhibitors. Part 1: An overview

TL;DR: The use of computational chemistry as a tool in the design and development of organic corrosion inhibitors has been greatly enhanced by the development of density functional theory (DFT) as discussed by the authors, which has enabled corrosion scientist to accurately predict the inhibition efficacies based on electronic/molecular properties and reactivity indices.

About the mechanism of stress corrosion cracking of Alloy 600 in high temperature water

TL;DR: In this paper, a critical review of the mechanisms of stress corrosion cracking (SCC) is given and, an interpretation of the events occurring during the long ({approx} 15 y) induction times observed in plant is postulated.

The mechanism of stress corrosion cracking of alloy 600 in high temperature water

TL;DR: In this paper, different mechanisms proposed to explain the stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of alloy 600 are briefly reviewed and their validity to explain influence of the variables and to predict the crack growth rate is assessed.

A phase field model for simulating the stress corrosion cracking initiated from pits

TL;DR: In this article, a phase field model for simulating the stress corrosion cracking (SCC) phenomenon in metallic materials is presented, where the effect of mechanical stresses is incorporated by relating the interface kinetics parameter to the stress intensity factor and stress field near the crack tip.

Modelling of crack chemistry in sensitized stainless steel in boiling water reactor environments

TL;DR: In this paper, an advanced model was used to predict the chemistry and potential in a stress corrosion crack in sensitized stainless steel in a boiling water reactor (BWR) environment, and the model assumes trapezoidal crack geometry, incorporates anodic reaction and cathodic reduction within the crack, and takes into account the limited solubility of cations in high temperature water.

Reaction Model for Iron Dissolution Studied by Electrode Impedance II . Determination of the Reaction Model

TL;DR: In this paper, the origins of electrode impedances are examined on the basis of experimental results given in Part I, and hypotheses describing reaction rates, such as the Tafel law, reaction reversibility, and the adsorption isotherm law, are analyzed in order to translate reasonably the reaction models into mathematical expressions.

Direct evidence of chromium depletion near the grain boundaries in sensitized stainless steels

TL;DR: In this article, a thin film ''energy dispersive'' x-ray analysis coupled with a scanning transmission electron microscope reduced the spatial resolution to better than 50 nm which obtained direct evidence of chromium depleted zones in a sensitized stainless steel.
