Abstract | ||||
The corrosion performance of carbon steel X52 was studied after exposure up to 12 months in three atmospheric environments in Egypt. The results are in agreement with kinetic equations of the form P=AtB, where P is the corrosion penetration, t is time, and A, and B are constants. The corrosion resistance of carbon steel, especially in industrial and urban sites are better than in coastal site. The corrosion products were characterized by XRD and SEM. | ||||
