“…Whereas corrosion and erosion are relatively well understood as separate processes, the synergy term is a multifactorial problem [2][3][4][5][6] that requires taking into account: 1) properties of the alloy target [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]: its hardness, modulus of elasticity, toughness, chemical composition and microstructure, 2) characteristics of the dispersed phase [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26]: its density, hardness, size, angularity and concentration of the slurry particle are the most relevant, as well as 3) properties and conditions of the flow medium in which the particles are suspended [27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37]: its velocity, impact angle, viscosity, pH, pressure and chemical composition.…”
