Rust is an iron oxide‚ usually red oxide formed by the redox reaction of iron and oxygen in the presence of water or air moisture. Several forms of rust are distinguishable both visually and by spectroscopy‚ and form under different circumstances.Rust consists of hydrated iron(III) oxides Fe2O3·nH2O and iron(III) oxide-hydroxide (FeO(OH)‚ Fe(OH)3). Given sufficient time‚ oxygen‚ and water‚ any iron mass will eventually convert entirely to rust and disintegrate. Surface rust is flaky and friable‚

Corrosion is the waring away of an object.This can result in containers being unable to carry out their function and they may contain hazardous chemicals which can damage the environment(in the case of the disposal of nuclear waste to the bottom of the ocean or it being buried.Also in surface condenser in thermal power stations.these transform steam(gas) to steam(liquid).As the tube ends get corroded there is the possibility of cooling water leakage to the steam side contaminating the condensed steam

Research on Magnet materials • Alnico Magnets Alnico magnet alloy is largely comprised of Aluminum‚ Iron‚ Cobalt and Nickel. Alnico is a moderately expensive magnet material because of the Cobalt and Nickel content. Alnico magnet alloy has high maximum operating temperature and a very good corrosion resistance. Some grades of Alnico alloy can operate upwards of 1000C. Magnets made with this alloy are available in a variety of grades and dimensions and they are usually cast. Alnico magnet material

first practical use of cathodic protection is generally credited to Sir Humphrey Davy in the 1820s. Davy’s advice was sought by the Royal Navy in investigating the corrosion of copper sheeting used for cladding the hulls of naval vessels. Davy found that he could preserve copper in sea water by the attachment of small quantities of iron or zinc; the copper became‚ as Davy put it‚ “cathodically protected”. The

steel or iron to prevent rusting. The most common form of galvanization is hot-dip galvanization. Hot-dip galvanization is the process of coating iron or steel‚ which are less reactive‚ by passing the metal via a molten bath of zinc at high temperatures. Hence‚ when the solution gets exposed to the atmosphere‚ pure zinc reacts with oxygen to form zinc oxide. This further reacts with carbon dioxide to form zinc carbonate‚ a usually dull grey‚ fairly strong material that stops further corrosion. This

solder is typically thought of when solder or soldering is mentioned‚ with a typical melting range of 90 to 450 °C (190 to 840 °F).[3] It is commonly used in electronics‚ plumbing‚ and assembly of sheet metal parts. Manual soldering uses a soldering iron or soldering gun.Alloys that melt between 180 and 190 °C (360 and 370 °F) are the most commonly used. Soldering performed using alloys with a melting point above 450 °C (840 °F) is called ’hard soldering’‚ ’silver soldering’‚ or brazing. For certain
