This publication presents the proceedings of a technical meeting on water chemistry and cladding corrosion/deposition including fuel failures, which was held in Kiev, Ukraine, in 2010. The outcome of ...

such as in corrosion chemistry. Oxide–water interfaces are ubiquitous in nature and technological processes, but their characterization is difficult. Now, an in situ nonlinear optical ...

He was researching steel alloys to stop corrosion in gun barrels. Brearley made an alloy using iron, carbon, chromium, and nickel. However, it didn't work well for a gun barrel, so he tossed it ...
