Basic causes of corrosion on ships The ship has never been spared from corrosion. Generally, those affected by corrosion on ships are ship hull plates, ship propellers and ship steering because they come into direct contact with sea water. Understanding corrosion is a redox reaction between metals and various substances in their environment so as to produce […]
Steel Ship Corrosion Corrosion of steel vessels for small vessels, medium ships and large vessels will result in reduced strength and lifetime of the ship, so as to reduce the safety of the cargo and passenger safety of the ship. To avoid greater losses due to seawater corrosion, corrosion protection is required for the ship’s plates […]
Corrosion causing factors on ship If we observe the construction of ships, the type of rust that is often found is the type of rust caused by biological factors, namely rust caused by bacteria or marine animals attached to the hull (fouling). Fouling attached to the hull of this ship will one day be released due […]
Marine corrosion Corrosion is a subject that concerns various disciplines, or in other words, it connects the elements of physics, chemistry, metallurgy, electronics and recording. Most of those involved are those who have a background in one of these sciences but not all of them. So an electrochemist does not have to explore the corrosion aspects in […]
