There are many different types of corrosion, ranging from those that are easily identifiable with the naked eye, to those that take some additional examination to accurately identify. This naturally occurring condition can cause costly and dangerous damage to systems from personal vehicles to pipelines and architectural infrastructures such as…
Cathodic Protection is a major weapon against corrosion but has some costly disadvantages when trying to protect larger steel assets For corrosion to occur, four elements must be present: a host site from which current flows, a destination site where no current flows, a medium capable of conducting current (such…
Carbon steel is widely used across industries such as energy, industrial, infrastructure, heavy equipment, and marine. Unfortunately, carbon steel is highly susceptible to corrosion, which can put major holds on workflow and production, costing organizations significant amounts of time and money. The first step to battling corrosion is understanding it.…
Volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, are ubiquitous organic chemicals that pose a threat to human health due to their high vapor pressure at room temperature. This high vapor pressure allows molecules to evaporate or sublimate from liquids and solids into the surrounding air. VOCs are often found in nature and…
There are many ways to prevent corrosion and galvanization is one of the most popular. Galvanization involves coating the base metal with zinc for protection from the outside environment. Despite its widespread use, there are dangers to galvanization, and we’re not just talking about the costs to your business! Read…
We at EonCoat understand the importance of corrosion prevention. Rust and other corrosion forms can lead to safety issues and ruin the integrity of your equipment and supplies. Even routine maintenance to remove and repair corrosion can drive up costs. Fortunately, there are a variety of measures you can take…
Unlike barrier coatings, EonCoat works as a surface treatment that alloys the carbon steel, allowing it to protect itself. Alloying the metal surface prevents rust from developing. Let’s take a closer look at the alloying process. Definition of an Alloy An alloy is a metal that’s combined with other substances…
You may be surprised to learn that not all steel is created equal. In fact, there are three definitive types of carbon steel, all with their own specific uses and features. The type of carbon steel also determines how well it alloys with other components, which is vital when it…
You are tired of the costs of corrosion! When you see corrosion on your carbon steel asset, you see the money you would rather spend elsewhere. According to the SSPC, corrosion of metals costs US $276 billion annually. classifications and types of corrosion. Corrosion is the process of decay on…
Corrosion tests show that coatings fail at the point of a scratch. The question is how fast and how far back from the scribe line the corrosion protection breaks down. In order to understand some things ourselves (and perhaps to make a point), we decided to figure out what happens…
