The total quantity of sulfur in a gear oil due to the base oil and the additives present can be determined by a bomb method (ASTM D-129, IP 61) in which the sulfur is assessed gravimetrically as barium sulfate. The copper strip test (ASTM D-130, ASTM D-849, ASTM D-2649, IP 154) is used to simulate the tendency of the oil to attack copper, brass, or bronze. Because active sulfur is desirable for some extreme-pressure applications, a positive copper strip result can indicate that the formulation is satisfactory, but care is necessary in the interpretation of copper strip results because formulations of different chemical compositions may give different results and yet have similar performance in the intended application. Corrosion preventative properties are also measurable (ASTM D-4636). 

A convenient source of sodium sarcosinate is sodium chloroacetate and methylamine. Before the 2" World War sarcosinates have been known as Medialan , useful as textile chemicals with recognised lesser sensitivity (as compared to soaps) to hydrolysis, compatibility with other surfactants, and higher stability in hard water. Some antistatic, lime soap dispersing, bacteriostatic and corrosion-preventive properties are other useful properties of sarcosinates. Sodium N-lauroyl sarcosinate show moderate compatibility with a range of cationic...

For over a decade, the use of poly aniline for corrosion protection of metals, particularly stainless steel, has been investigated. In the first study [105] by DeBerry, polyaniline was electrochemically deposited on ferritic stainless steels and found to provide anodic protection that significantly reduced corrosion rates in acid solutions. Numerous studies since then have confirmed the corrosion-preventing properties of polyanilines [102-104,106-111]. In addition, nonelectrochemical methods of applying polyaniline have been demonstrated [102-104,106-1111. In one recent study (I09J, dispersions based on doped polyaniline. Versicon, ... 

Electroless deposition as we know it today has had many applications, e.g., in corrosion prevention [5-8], and electronics [9]. Although it yields a limited number of metals and alloys compared to electrodeposition, materials with unique properties, such as Ni-P (corrosion resistance) and Co-P (magnetic properties), are readily obtained by electroless deposition. It is in principle easier to obtain coatings of uniform thickness and composition using the electroless process, since one does not have the current density uniformity problem of electrodeposition. However, as we shall see, the practitioner of electroless deposition needs to be aware of the actions of solution additives and dissolved O2 gas on deposition kinetics, which affect deposit thickness and composition uniformity. Nevertheless, electroless deposition is experiencing increased interest in microelectronics, in part due to the need to replace expensive vacuum metallization methods with less expensive and selective deposition methods. The need to find creative deposition methods in the emerging field of nanofabrication is generating much interest in electroless deposition, at the present time more so as a useful process however, than as a subject of serious research. 

Corrosion-inhibiting properties of fuel stabilizers can be a secondary effect of the dispersing action of a fuel stabilizer. By functioning as a dispersant, sludge and water are held in suspension and prevented from initiating metal surface corrosion. Also, some stabilizer dispersants can form a thin film on the metal surfaces of fuel system components. This film-forming property enables the stabilizer-dispersant to function in corrosion control. A typical oil-soluble dispersant compound is shown in FIGURE 6-3.

Molybdenum disulphide is intrinsically an excellent lubricant. No details exist about the way in which it was used in the distant past, but almost certainly it was first used as a free solid. While not deliberately mixed with any other material, it would have been fairly impure. In recent years it has become usual for it to be used in conjunction with other substances to improve some specific property or to overcome some specific problem. From such points of view as ease of application, re-supply, quality control, corrosion prevention or service life, there can be significant advantages in using it in combination with other materials. Nevertheless, there are still many situations for which its use unmixed with other substances can provide a satisfactory, or even optimum, solution. 

The nature of the corrosion scale is very important in deciding the corrosion resistance of the component. Surface modification or alloying alters the composition and complexity of the corrosion scales, which prevents further corrosion and outward diffusion of alloy components. Vossen et al. have shown the complex scale formation in the case of stainless steel and nickel-based alloys in comparison to pure metals.These scales are understood to cause transport problems to the outward diffusion of alloy components and thereby decrease the dissolution of the steel components. Therefore, any improvement to the corrosion resistant properties of the current collector has to come by way... 

Over the years, detergents have found equally important usage in many other types of lubricants, including gear oils, farm tractor hydraulic fluids, automatic transmission fluids and industrial oils. The performance properties that detergents impart to these lubricating fluids include rust and corrosion prevention, improvement in lubricant elastomeric seal compatibility, enhancement of sludge control under oxidative conditions and improvement of wet clutch and wet brake friction level and stability. 

One of the most intensively studied interfaces is the electronic conductor/ionic conductor where the interest is motivated by attempts to prevent corrosion and to improve the catalytic properties of metallic deposition. Both corrosion prevention and catalysis development can be described using an electrochemical and engineering approach, including film formation and growth and its optimization in the cell reactor. 

A further progress perspective in the field of water-based paints could be their use for painting ships [205]. However, these studies are only in the beginning. The main difficulty is corrosion prevention. Maximum protection from stress corrosion cracking is ensured by alkyd paints combined with phenolic epoxy paints during a 6.5-year exposure [206]. These data were obtained on pre-contaminated steel plates. In Russia now water-based dispersion primers with anticorrosive properties have been developed and manufactured [207]. This was possible after incorporation of corrosion inhibitors combined with surfactants into the formulations. 

Conversion coatings. Some metals can be treated by oxidizing agents, preferentially chromate solutions, to prepare an oxide film saturated by chromate ions. This is one of the most effective corrosion preventing treatments of metal surfaces and is applied to aluminum, copper, and zinc. Chromate ions are known for toxic properties. Pohtical decisions have banned this surface treatment for the future. So far no alternative corrosion protecting treatment of similar effectiveness has been developed.

The corrosion inhibitors appear to possess properties that impart to metals resistance to attack by a variety of corrosive agents, such as brines, weak inorganic acids, organic acids, COj, HjS, etc. The method of carrying out this process is relatively simple in principle the corrosion preventive reagent is dissolved in the liquid corrosive medium in small amounts and is thus kept in contact with the metal surface to be protected. Alternatively, the corrosion inhibitor may be applied first to the metal surface, either as it is or as a solution in some carrier liquid or paste. Continuous application, as in the corrosive solution, is the preferred method, however. The concentration of the corrosion inhibitors varies widely, but the preferable concentrations are 15-250 ppm.
