Abstract:The study is fundamentally geared toward the investigation of the influence of Manual Metal Arc (MMA) welding on the mechanical and microstructural properties of low carbon steel immersed in a 0.5 M nitric acid environment having a pH of 0.3. The corrosion and mechanical behavior of the substrates are investigated prior to and after 336 h of immersion in the test environment. The outcome of the experiment shows that the structural integrity of the immersed substrates is affected due to corrosion in the test en… Show more
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.
