EIS study of corrosion behavior of metallic materials in ethanol blended gasoline containing water as a contaminant

Pitting corrosion of aluminum alloys in anhydrous ethanol

“…In order to reduce corrosion problems in distribution and storage systems, the legislation limits the water content . In particular, water is normally a low content contaminant in commercial fuels such as gasoline and it was evidenced that low water content decreases the passivation stability and increases the localized corrosion sensitivity …”

Corrosion of martensitic stainless steel in ethanol-containing gasoline: Influence of contamination by chloride, H 2 O and acetic acid

“…This study did not include other ethanol/gasoline blends. The influence of water as contaminant in ethanol-blended gasoline with varying ethanol/gasoline ratios (0, 5, 10 and 15% ethanol) on the corrosion behaviour of various metallic materials -including AISI 304 stainless steel -has also been studied [61]. Here, the effect of water on increasing the corrosion rate of different materials was mainly attributed to the increased conductivity of the electrolyte.…”

Electrochemical evaluation of corrosion resistance of chromium plated nickel and copper tin alloys. A comparative study

“…A r t i c l e i n P r e s s Details of the appearance, testing and deposits structure analysis for the panels have been reported elsewhere [1]. The corrosion resistance of each deposit was assessed electrochemically by linear polarisation [3,[8][9][10][11][12][13], electrochemical impedance spectroscopy experiments and also by accelerated salt spray testing using copper accelerated acetic acid salt spray. All electroplated panels were analysed thrice on the same panel for corrosion resistance, appearance and deposit structure.…”
