sides. Motorists must always exercise caution around trucks. However, the commercial or owner operator truck driver must also do her part to prevent this horrific accident. Here are five suggestions: Inspect Your Rear Underride Guard for Damage or Corrosion The rear underride guard must resist tremendous forces…

into an outdoor faucet will reveal the water pressure. If the pressure exceeds 80 psi contact a plumber for plumbing repair. Locating a loose pipe strap or hanger is typically more difficult, especially when the pipes are located in the walls. Pipe corrosion isn’t a condition the homeowner will be able to identify, although discolored may be an indication when the pipe material is galvanized…

1798, it is used for hardening steel, to prevent corrosion alongside various medical uses, and also has a plethora of adverse effects when accidentally released into the ecosystem. As interesting as the element is, it’s a rather queer one. Chromium was discovered by Louis - Nicholas Vaquelin while experimenting with Siberian Red Lead. In 1797, Vanquelin…

One of the earliest metals to be discovered, lead has a long history with mankind. It was first discovered around 7000 BC as a byproduct of silver smelting. Lead is metal known for its resistance against corrosion, malleability, and low melting point. Mined all across the world, lead was one of the most important metals in ancient times. Although lead was toxic, it was used widely, particularly in the Roman Empire. Through its uses and toxicity, lead affected the classical era in a drastic way.…

Sealcoat is a product that helps prevents corrosion on black top, which is caused from multiple factors such as the rain, which contains a low acid count. Plowing is also a large factor and one of the harshest reasons upon corrosion. Lastly would be tree roots, weeds and grass. Blacktop is very durable but at the same time it is very fragile. Taking care of a blacktop driveway or parking lot is a major investment that everyone should always consider into when they look to upgrade or maintain a…

stream of and in close proximity to a water injection point which was not part of the original design. The pipework were recovered and send away for metallurgical examination. The examination showed that the pipe elbow failed due to an ‘erosion-corrosion’ damage mechanism. This over time had reduced the wall thickness from 7-8mm to 0.3mm which led to the bursting of the pipe section and releasing the highly flammable gases into air. The pipe thinning occurred due to the water injection position…

blending a conventional polymer with a conducting polymer by physical or chemical change. 4. COORDINATE CONDUCTING POLYMER When a metal combines with a polydentate ligand then charge transfer complex containing polymer is obtained. They exhibit corrosion characteristics, and are usually in doubtable in most solvents. APPLICATION OF CONDUCTING POLYMER 1. As sensors into clothing. 2. Conducting polymer textiles as a camouflage for defense machinery. Since the Textiles has no sharp edges they…

control group placed into water to compare to the variable groups Diet Coke, Red Bull, and lemon juice. The dependent variable is the amount corrosion on the calcium carbonate of the eggshell, measured by the scale in milligrams. The test groups will all be put into an environment at a constant temperature, and checked on daily to observe the eggshell corrosion. After the test is finally complete, the information gathered over time will be evaluated and conclude which acid or base corroded…

Checking your car's battery is an extremely important part of car maintenance. If you keep your battery clean and running in tip top shape, it will last much longer. When checking your battery, you should look for problems like corrosion, dirt, cracks, and broken cables. It's important to be cautious when working on your car's battery. You should always make sure the engine is off and you are removing the battery and its cables correctly so that you don't cause harm to yourself or the battery.…

cause of the leakage it maybe have been just a hole or other issue regarding the structure but it was our right to know about the destruction of the build before time. Specially when several reports written by professionals were spoke about the corrosion in the…
