Hoar and Hines1–5 have studied the transgranular stress-corrosion cracking of 18–8 type stainless steels in aerated aqueous magnesium chloride solution (42 wt.-per cent of magnesium chloride ...

Cathodic and Anodic Inhibitors. Cathodic inhibitors promote insoluble deposits that have an insulating effect and block the flow of electrons, thereby limiting the cathodic reaction and hence anodic ...

The polarization curves for solutions with and without inhibitor, in red and in blue respectively, are shown in Figure 8. The anodic part of the polarization curve without inhibitor is usual for ...
