Static Tests of Corrosion Inhibitors for Aluminum and Carbon Steel (open access)

Static Tests of Corrosion Inhibitors for Aluminum and Carbon Steel

The experiments described in this report were performed for two purposes: (1) to find a chemical, or combination of chemicals, that would be effective for inhibiting corrosion of steel in static portions of the Hanford water systems, and (2) as screening tests to select candidate mixtures for further testing to replace sodium dichromate as the inhibitor of aluminum and steel corrosion in the Hanford single-pass reactor cooling water.
