Permanent disposal of high level nuclear waste in containers that employ steel as a
structural element and copper as a corrosion barrier material is a favoured design concept in …

The targeted removal of efficient but toxic corrosion inhibitors based on hexavalent
chromium has provided an impetus for discovery of new, more benign organic compounds …

Copper has been the corrosion barrier of choice for the canister in the Swedish and Finnish,
nuclear waste disposal programmes for over 30 years. During that time many studies have …

The process of oxidation of a copper surface coated by a layer of graphene in water-
saturated air at 50° C was studied where it was observed that oxidation started at the …

Copper exposed to pure, O 2-free water for several months in glass-and metal-contained,
well-controlled systems shows no evidence of corrosion, either through hydrogen evolution …

Transforming our energy supplies to be more sustainable is seen by many to be the biggest
challenge of our times. In this comprehensive textbook, LD Danny Harvey sets out in …

The corrosion behaviors of copper and copper/titanium galvanic couple (GC) in seawater
were studied by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and electrochemical noise …

Copper is a high-quality material commonly used in drinking water supply pipes. Calcium is
a prevalent cation found in drinking water. However, the effects of calcium on copper …

This paper reports on hydrogen pressures measured during∼ 19,000 h immersion of
copper in oxygen-free liquid distilled water. Copper corrosion products have been examined …

This paper considers the corrosion of copper in water by:(1) short term, open system weight
measurements and (2) long term, closed system immersion in distilled water (13,800 h) …
