Corrosion engineering

cold-rolling (CR)

Materials science; Corrosion engineering

Rolling steel without first reheating it. This process reduces thickness of the steel, produces a smoother surface and makes it easier to machine.

computerized maintenance management system

Materials science; Corrosion engineering

A computerized system to assist with the effective and efficient management of maintenance activities through the application of computer technology.

copper accelerated salt spray (CASS) test

Materials science; Corrosion engineering

Copper accelerated salt spray (CASS) test: an accelerated corrosion test for some electrodeposits for anodic coatings on aluminum.

anti-fouling paint

Materials science; Corrosion engineering

A paint formulated to prevent fouling of under-water structures, such as the bottoms of ships; refers to the prevention of marine organism's attachment or growth on a submerged metal surface, ...

anti pitting agent

Materials science; Corrosion engineering

An addition agent for electroplating solutions to prevent the formation of pits or large pores in the electrodeposits.

The value obtained by testing a coating or sintered material with standard indentation hardness equipment. Since the reading reflects a composite of pores and solid material, (which may be particles ...

arc wire spraying

Materials science; Corrosion engineering

A thermal spray process where two electrically conducting wires are brought together to form an electric arc. Molten material formed in the arc is projected by a compressed gas stream towards the ...
