Abstract:Despite its excellent corrosion resistance, B30 copper–nickel alloy is prone to pitting, particularly when exposed to microorganisms. The mechanism underlying the acceleration of pitting in this alloy is not fully understood. In this study, the acceleration of pitting corrosion in B30 copper–nickel alloy caused by a marine microorganism named Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) was investigated using surface analysis and electrochemical techniques. P. aeruginosa significantly accelerated the pitting in B30 … Show more
“…The three bacterial strains were grown in a constant temperature shaker (orbital shaking) at 170 rpm for 20-48 h at 37 °C. [23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34] The bacterial solution cultured to an absorbance of 0.8-1 A (600 nm) was diluted 1000 times with sterile dilution water. When the absorbance was between 0.8 and 1.0 (600 nm), the bacteria were generally in the middle of the exponential growth phase, during which bacterial activity was high and the accuracy of bacterial testing could be ensured.…”
This research investigated the potential use of 5-chloro-2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one (CMIT) as a biocide in aircraft fuel systems, which is rarely studied due to the unique properties of such systems.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
