The National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) researchers are developing an innovative new approach to pinpoint early ...

Superhydrophobic materials offer a strategy for developing marine anti-corrosion materials due to their low solid-liquid contact area and low surface energy. However, existing superhydrophobic ...

Concerns about corrosion, corrosion control, and testing are essential for industries producing items susceptible to corrosive elements like chemicals, oxygen, water, electrolytes, and UV light. This ...

Microbially influenced corrosion quietly drives some of the costliest, least predictable failures in pipeline infrastructure. Beth McDaniel, J.D. explores how a single non-toxic coating can now suppre ...

Skyscrapers, bridges, ships, airplanes, cars—everything humans make or build sooner or later decays. The ravages of time are known as corrosion; nothing is safe from it. This makes the fight against ...

Corrosion can have financial consequences. In the United States corrosion causes yearly losses of $47.9 billion in the utility industry, $29.7 billion in the transportation industry, $22.6 billion in ...

Corrosion is a persistent and evolving threat to aircraft, affecting both metal components through electrochemical deterioration and wooden structures, where it manifests as "dry rot" due to moisture ...

What affects almost everything made of metal, from cars to boats to underground pipes and even the fillings in your teeth? Corrosion — a slow process of decay. At a global cost of trillions of dollars ...

Batteries are an essential in every home. They power our toys, TV remote controls, smoke alarms, flashlights, and so much more. However, batteries are susceptible to leaks when exposed to moisture or ...
