SortNewestOldestTitle A-ZTitle Z-A
Scanning electron microscopy image of the chromium plated cylinder surface, presenting deposits and localized dissolution under deposits. There are different stages of corrosion in this region, observed in low magnification. Small areas of attack and a shallow pitting with deposits that were analyzed by EDS and revealed the presence of S.

As polished micrographic aspect of the longitudinal section of the cylinder, at the surface, in a region where the damage is in the begining. It is possible to see that there are two layers at the surface. A first Ni layer, 300HV average hardness, over the low carbon steel substrate, 200HV average hardness, and a chromium plated layer, 1100HV average hardness and several discontinuities.
