  2. Aluminium oxynitride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_oxynitride

    Aluminium oxynitride (marketed under the name ALON by Surmet Corporation [3]) is a transparent ceramic composed of aluminium, oxygen and nitrogen. Aluminium oxynitride is optically transparent (≥80% for 2 mm thickness) in the near-ultraviolet , visible, and mid-wave- infrared regions of the electromagnetic spectrum.

  3. Stress corrosion cracking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_corrosion_cracking

    Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) is the growth of crack formation in a corrosive environment. It can lead to unexpected and sudden failure of normally ductile metal alloys subjected to a tensile stress, especially at elevated temperature. SCC is highly chemically specific in that certain alloys are likely to undergo SCC only when exposed to a ...

    They live in the water-fuel interface of the water droplets, form dark black/brown/green, gel-like mats, and cause microbial corrosion to plastic and rubber parts of the aircraft fuel system by consuming them, and to the metal parts by the means of their acidic metabolic products.

  6. Chromate conversion coating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromate_conversion_coating

    In the aluminum industry, the process is also called chemical film [13] or yellow iridite, [13] Commercial trademarked names include Iridite [13] and Bonderite [14] (formerly known as Alodine, or Alocrom in the UK). [15] The main standards for chromate conversion coating of aluminium are MIL-DTL-5541 in the US, and Def Stan 03/18 in the UK.

  7. Corrosion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrosion

    Galvanic corrosion of an aluminium plate occurred when the plate was connected to a mild steel structural support.. Galvanic corrosion occurs when two different metals have physical or electrical contact with each other and are immersed in a common electrolyte, or when the same metal is exposed to electrolyte with different concentrations.

  8. Crevice corrosion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crevice_corrosion

    Crevice corrosion refers to corrosion occurring in occluded spaces such as interstices in which a stagnant solution is trapped and not renewed. [1] These spaces are generally called crevices. Examples of crevices are gaps and contact areas between parts, under gaskets or seals, inside cracks and seams, spaces filled with deposits and under ...

  9. Anodic protection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anodic_protection

    In anodic protection potentiostat is used to maintain a metal at constant potential with respect to reference electrode. Out of three terminals of the potentiostat one is connected to tank to be protected, another to an auxiliary cathode and the third to reference electrode. Thus, a potentiostat maintains a constant potential between tank and ...
