The second edition of this textbook on physical electrochemistry, written by two experienced teachers of physical chemistry, corrosion engineering and materials science and engineering, covers the current knowledge which should be transferred to students of these fields.
In 20 chapters the fundamentals of electrochemistry, the most important electrochemical measurement techniques and applications of electrochemistry are covered.
It can be concluded that this study fulfills its intension of “serving as a key textbook in undergraduate courses” dealing with electrochemistry and being “a reference source for graduated students, researchers and engineers” interested in this field. Teachers will find sufficient content for preparing lectures on this topic. Even self‐learning is well supported by the clear structure, presented content and provided sources for further reading.
This study focuses on the corrosion mechanism of carbon steel exposed to an artificial geothermal brine influenced by carbon dioxide (CO2) gas. The tested brine simulates a geothermal source in Sibayak, Indonesia, containing 1500 mg/L of Cl-, 20 mg/L of SO4 2-, and 15 mg/L of HCO3-with pH 4. To reveal the temperature effect on the corrosion behavior of carbon steel, exposure and electrochemical tests were carried out at 70 °C and 150 °C. Surface analysis of corroded specimens showed localized corrosion at both temperatures, despite the formation of corrosion products on the surface. After 7 days at 150 °C, SEM images showed the formation of an adherent, dense, and crystalline FeCO3 layer. Whereas at 70 °C, the corrosion products consisted of chukanovite (Fe2(OH)2CO3) and siderite (FeCO3), which are less dense and less protective than that at 150 °C.
Control experiments under Ar-environment were used to investigate the corrosive effect of CO2. Free corrosion potential (Ecorr) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) confirm that at both temperatures, the corrosive effect of CO2 was more significant compared to that measured in the Ar-containing solution. In terms of temperature effect, carbon steel remained active at 70 °C, while at 150 °C, it became passive due to the FeCO3 formation. These results suggest that carbon steel is more susceptible to corrosion at the near ground surface of a geothermal well, whereas at a deeper well with a higher temperature, there is a possible risk of scaling (FeCO3 layer). A longer exposure test at 150 °C with a stagnant solution for 28 days, however, showed the unstable FeCO3 layer and therefore a deeper localized corrosion compared to that of seven-day exposed specimens.
Since materials play an important role when designing and servicing industrial facilities. Also, for energy systems there is no way around. Selection of appropriate materials is an essential aspect for successful application and reliable service life. Future engineers must be made aware on the importance of this fact. So, they may prevail in techno‐economic discussions.
The book fulfills its intension of providing to students in science and engineering a comprehensive understanding of different energy processes and what role materials play in this conjunction. Also, it gives interested engineers and scientists an insight in this matter. After being introduced the user should dig deeper in the existing detailed knowledge available for materials selection within these special conditions to assure a reliable operation of the energy production facility.
Specific amounts of oxidizing and reductive impurities as well as some moisture were added to dense phase CO2 to replicate CO2 streams from sources in a CCS pipeline network. Due to the moisture content being only 50 ppmV no visible acid condensation took place. To simulate stress conditions at the inside pipeline surface due to fluid pressure (10 MPa) specimens were preloaded using a load frame. Experiments conducted at 278 K and at 313 K revealed the highest corrosion rate at lower temperature. Corrosive effect of impurities was strongest applying mixed atmosphere, containing oxidizing and reductive components, closely followed by CO2 streams with pure oxidizing character. By far, the lowest corrosion rate (10x lower) resulted from reductive atmosphere. In general, at constant temperature and pressure the CO2 stream composition strongly influences the morphology, thickness and composition of the corrosion products. Applying oxidizing or mixed impurities, iron hydroxides or oxides (e.g. goethite, hematite) occur as dominating corrosion products, capable to incorporate different amounts of sulfur. In contrast, using reductive atmosphere very thin corrosion layers with low crystallinity were developed, and phase identification by XRD was unfeasible. SEM/EDX analysis revealed the formation of Fe-O compounds, most likely attributed to the oxygen partial pressure in the system induced by CO2 (≥0.985 volume fraction) and volatile H2O. In addition to the surface covering corrosion layer, secondary phases had grown locally distributed on top of the layer. These compounds are characteristic for the applied atmosphere and vary in number, shape and chemical composition.
Dictionary of Metallurgy and Metal Processing - English-German – German-English (Book review)
(2019)
The first issue of this classic dictionary contains highly specialized terms, not only of the area of metallurgy but also of welding, soldering and corrosion. Special attention was paid by the author to a correct reference of each term according to the field of application.
Finally, this book fulfills the intension of its author, to collect relevant terms with the correct pendant from a huge variety of sources and applications. It provides the user a foundation for correct terminology and communication for international contacts.
Biodiesel is subject to degradation processes like oil and grease. The oxidative degradation products of vegetable oil esters in biodiesel particularly lead to enhanced sedimentation in blended fuels.
The polarity of biodiesel increases its solvency and facilitates permeation and extraction. Solvation, swelling and/or extraction lead to changes in the physical properties and chemical changes of polymeric materials. It also accelerates the degradation (hydrolysis and oxidation) of these materials with the loss of additives and stabilizers.
The objective of this research was to determine the resistance of frequently used polymeric materials such as ACM, EPDM, FKM, FVMQ, CR, CSM, IIR, HNBR, NBR, PA, PE; POM, PUR, PVC and VMQ in biodiesel and heating oil with 10 %/20 % biodiesel (B10/B20) at 40°C and 70°C.
Mass, tensile strength and breaking elongation of the test specimens were determined before and after the exposure for 84 days in the biodiesel heating oil blends. The visual examination of some elastomer test specimens clearly showed the great volume increase until break or partial dissolution. Shore hardness A and D were determined before and after exposure of the test specimens in the biofuels for 42 days.
The elastomers CR, CSM, EPDM, IIR, NBR and VMQ were generally not resistant to biodiesel and B10 at 40°C and 70°C. FKM, ACM, HNBR, PA, PE, POM, and PVC showed high compatibility in B10/B20 at 40°C. A lower compatibility was determined for ACM in biodiesel. ACM and HNBR were not resistant in B20 at 70°C.

In Europe biodiesel gained from rapeseeds are considered as an alternative to common fossil fuels due to its environmental performance and its independence from import of raw materials. Biodiesel is also suitable to serve as blending component to heating oil. In that case, it must be considered that changes of fuel composition might cause material degradation.
The objective of this research was to investigate the resistance of metallic materials exposed to heating oil, heating oil blend B20 with 20 % biodiesel and pure biodiesel. Furthermore, the resistance of metals to eight-year aged B10 and six-year aged pure biodiesel was evaluated. Ageing of biodiesel forms acids and water which might propagate metal corrosion. The investigated metals (aluminium, unalloyed steel, austenitic CrNi-steel, copper, die cast zinc and brass) are commonly used for components in middle distillate facilities.
According to DIN 50905-4 the immersed metals were exposed in a climate chamber at 50°C for 4 weeks. The metallic materials were evaluated as resistant if the annual corrosion rate due to uniform corrosion remained under 0.1 mm/year and no localized corrosion in the form of pitting occurred.
The corrosion rates of the exposed materials stayed far below the limit of 0.1 mm/year for all tested fuels. An exception was die cast zinc ZP0410 in eight-year aged B10; a corrosion rate up to 0.3 mm/year due to uniform corrosion was measured. In no case localized corrosion occurred. Copper and brass caused discolouration of biodiesel from yellow to green.
In conclusion, the tested metallic materials were resistant in heating oil, heating oil blend B20 and pure biodiesel at 50 °C. Even the metals exposed to six-year aged biodiesel and eight-year aged B10 showed no uniform or localized corrosion; except for zinc, which was not resistant in eight-year aged B10.
Zinc materials are of high importance in the field of corrosion protection. For example, almost half of the annual production of zinc is used as anti-corrosive layer for steel components, particularly under atmospheric conditions. The corrosion protection is frequently ascribed to zinc carbonate species with low solubility which form on the metal surface under atmospheric conditions. Due to the technological importance and wide use of zinc materials, its corrosion behavior and the formation of reaction products has been intensively investigated over decades.
Assuming atmospheric corrosion conditions, an initial native passive film of few nanometers thickness forms spontaneously. It consists of zinc oxide and hydroxide, transforming into various species in dependence of the surrounding atmospheric conditions.
This study focusses on the investigation of corrosion product layers on massive titanium-zinc sheets, formed during short- and mid-term exposure experiments by Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy. This method enables the investigation of extremely thin native passive films which form during the initial hours of exposure. Furthermore, aged surface layers are analyzed which were formed by transformation of initial passive layers over the time of several weeks. The spectroscopic investigations are complemented by scanning electron microscopy (SEM/EDX) in order to obtain information on the chemical composition and morphology of the corrosion products. The combination of both methods offers a comprehensive view on the processes occurring in the early stages of zinc corrosion.
Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is identified as an excellent technology to reach the target of CO2 reduction. However, the safety issue and cost-effectiveness hinder the future of CCS. For the reliability and safety issues of injection wells, the corrosion resistance of the materials used needs to be determined.
In this study, representative low-cost materials including carbon steel 1.8977 and low alloyed steel 1.7225 were investigated in simulated pore water at 333 K and under CO2 saturation condition to represent the worst-case scenario: CO2 diffusion and aquifer fluid penetration. These simulated pore waters were made from relevant cement powder to mimic the realistic casing-cement interface. Electrochemical studies were carried out using the pore water made of cement powder dissolved in water in comparison with those dissolved in synthetic aquifer fluid, to reveal the effect of cement as well as formation water on the steel performance. Two commercially available types of cement were investigated: Dyckerhoff Variodur® and Wollastonite. Variodur® is a cement containing high performance binder with ultra-fine blast furnace slag which can be used to produce high acid resistance concrete. On the other hand, Wollastonite is an emerging natural material mainly made of CaSiO3 which can be hardened by converting to CaCO3 during CO2 injection.
The results showed the pH-reducing effect of CO2 on the simulated pore water/aquifer (from more than 10 to less than 5) leading to the active corrosion process that happened on both 1.8977 and 1.7225. Electrochemical characterization showed negative free corrosion potential and polarisation curves without passive behaviors. The tested coupons suffered from pitting corrosion, which was confirmed by surface analysis. Interestingly, basing on the pit depth measurements from the tested coupons and the hardness of cement powder, it is suggested that Variodur® performed better than Wollastonite in both aspects. The electrochemical data was compared to that resulted from exposure tests to give a recommendation on material selection for bore-hole construction.

Geothermal energy is one of the most promising energy resources to replace fossil fuel. To extract this energy, hot fluids of various salts and gases are pumped up from a geothermal well having a certain depth and location. Geothermal wells in volcanic regions often contain highly corrosive CO2 and H2S gases that can be corrosive to the geothermal power-plants, which are commonly constructed of different steels, such as carbon steel. This research focuses on the corrosion behaviour of carbon steel exposed to an artificial geothermal fluid containing CO2 gas, using an artificial acidic-saline geothermal brine as found in Sibayak, Indonesia. This medium has a pH of 4 and a chloride content of 1,500 mg/L. Exposure tests were conducted for seven days at 70 °C and 150 °C to simulate the operating temperatures for low and medium enthalpy geothermal sources. Surface morphology and cross-section of the specimens from the above experiments were analysed using scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX). Electrochemical tests via open circuit potential (OCP) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were performed to understand the corrosion processes of carbon steel in CO2-containing solution both at 70 °C and 150 °C. Localized corrosion was observed to a greater extent at 70 °C due to the less protectiveness of corrosion product layer compared to that at 150 °C, where FeCO3 has a high corrosion resistance. However, a longer exposure test for 28 days revealed the occurrence of localized corrosion with deeper pits compared to the seven-day exposed carbon steel. In addition, corrosion product transformation was observed after 28 days, indicating that more Ca2+ cations incorporate into the FeCO3 structure.
Biodiesel is viewed as a major source of energy. In areas such as the European Union, where 80 % of the oil-based fuel is imported, there is also the desire to reduce dependence on external oil supplies.
Materials compatibility is a major concern whenever the fuel composition is changed. The question arises of whether polymeric materials are resistant to heating oil with 20 % biodiesel (B20) in comparison to pure heating oil.
The polarity of biodiesel increases its solvency and facilitates permeation and extraction. Solvation, swelling and/or extraction lead to changes in the physical properties. Extraction alters the fuel chemistry. These chemical changes could also accelerate the degradation (hydrolysis and oxidation) of the polymeric material with the loss of additives and stabilizers.
The objective of this research was to determine the resistance of frequently used materials for components in middle distillate facilities such as ACM, FKM, HNBR, PA, PE, POM, PUR and PVC in heating oil and heating oil blend B20 for 84 days at 40 °C, and FKM, HNBR, PA, POM, PUR and PVC at 70 °C.
Mass, tensile strength, breaking elongation and Shore hardness A (D) of the test specimens were determined before and after exposure for 84 (42) days in the test fuels under static conditions.
For the investigations under compressed conditions, the mass and the compression set of FKM test specimens were determined before and after exposure for 3, 7, 14, 28, 56 and 90 days in B20 at 40 °C and 70 °C according to ISO 815-1 “Rubber, vul-canized or thermoplastic - determination of compression set – Part 1: At ambient or elevated temperatures”.
There is not determined a threshold for the reduction in tensile properties and Shore hardness in the international standards. Therefore, a threshold of 15 % was determined for the evaluation of the compatibility.
The change of tensile strength and breaking elongation of test specimens made of ACM, FKM, HNBR, PA, PE, POM, PUR and PVC exposed to heating oil and the blend B20 was less than 15 % at 40 °C. A maximum reduction in Shore hardness A of 14 % was determined for ACM at 40 °C and for HNBR of 15 % at 70 °C.
It can be concluded that ACM, FKM, HNBR, PA, PE, POM, PVC and PUR were resistant in B20 at 40°C. FKM, PA, POM and PVC were evaluated as resistant in heat-ing oil and B20 at 70 °C, HNBR and PUR were not resistant in these fuels at 70°C.
Based on the mass increase and compression set values of FKM test specimens it can be stated that FKM is resistant in B20 under compressed conditions at 40 °C and 70 °C.
