Corrosion engineering
Contact potential
Materials science; Corrosion engineering
The potential difference at the junction of two dissimilar substances.
Fatigue crack growth rate
Materials science; Corrosion engineering
The rate of crack extension caused by constant-amplitude fatigue loading, expressed in terms of crack extension per cycle of load application.
Corrosion fatigue
Materials science; Corrosion engineering
The process in which a metal fractures prematurely under conditions of simultaneous corrosion and repeated cyclic loading at lower stress levels or fewer cycles than would be required in the absence ...
Plasticity
Materials science; Corrosion engineering
The property that enables a material to undergo permanent deformation without rupture.
Deactivation
Materials science; Corrosion engineering
The process of prior removal of the active corrosive constituents usually oxygen, from a corrosive liquid by controlled corrosion of expendable metal or by other chemical means, thereby making the ...
Exchange current density
Materials science; Corrosion engineering
The rate of charge transfer per unit area when an electrode reaches dynamic equilibrium (at its reversible potential) in a solution; that is, the rate of anodic charge transfer (oxidation) balances ...
Elasticity
Materials science; Corrosion engineering
The property of a material by virtue of which deformation caused by stress disappears upon removal of the stress. A perfectly elastic body completely recovers its original shape and dimensions after ...
