Oxidation mechanism of MAX phases (Ti3AlC2 powders) with and without Sn doping Corros. Sci. (IF 6.479) Pub Date : 2020-12-24 Chunyu Guo; Enhui Wang; Shuize Wang; Xinmei Hou; Zhijun He; Tongxiang Liang; Kuo-Chih Chou
The oxidation behaviors of Ti3AlC2 and Ti3Al0.8Sn0.2C2 powders in air over the temperature range from 450 to 900 ℃ have been comprehensively compared. First-principles calculations suggest that Sn doping can decrease the oxidation resistance of Ti3AlC2 powders due to its weakening effect on the Ti-Al bonds. There are three stages of both powders depending on the oxidation temperature, in which the

A CO2-responsive anti-corrosion ethyl cellulose coating based on the pH-response mechanism Corros. Sci. (IF 6.479) Pub Date : 2020-12-15 Jixing Wang; Junlei Tang; Hailong Zhang; Yingying Wang; Hu Wang; Bing Lin; Jian Hou; Haibing Zhang
A CO2-responsive coating has been developed by adding a thiourea-containing nanocontainer with pH-response release property into an ethyl cellulose coating. The cumulative release of thiourea in the nanocontainer changes with the pH of aqueous solution, which enabled the release rate of thiourea from the nanocontainer in coating to adapt to the change in corrosiveness of 3.5 wt. % NaCl with different

The influence of temperature on hydrogen environmentally assisted cracking of AA7449-T7651 in moist air Corros. Sci. (IF 6.479) Pub Date : 2020-12-18 Unai De Francisco; Nicolas O. Larrosa; Matthew J. Peel
The 7xxx series of aluminium alloys are sensitive to intergranular hydrogen environmentally assisted cracking (HEAC) in moist air environments. A new generation of 7xxx alloys used in aircraft components (including AA7449) have been found to be more sensitive to HEAC. This investigation aims to quantify the HEAC crack growth rates of AA7449-T7651 in moist air at different temperatures. Double cantilever
