Effects of passive film quality by chemical passivation and solution flow on the corrosion behavior of 304 stainless steel in HCl solution were investigated using a coloration indicator, and by corrosion weight loss, electrochemical polarization and element dissolution measurements. A high redness degree suggests a low passive-film integrity for 304 stainless steel following air exposure, while the minimum redness degree for the samples after chemical passivation suggests a high passive-film integrity. In the static condition, samples subjected to air exposure exhibited a high corrosion rate and preferential dissolution of Fe. Chemical passivation inhibited the corrosion rate due to the intrinsically high structural integrity of the passive film and high concentrations of Cr-rich oxides and hydroxide. Solution flow accelerated corrosion by promoting both the anodic dissolution reaction and the cathodic reaction. Solution flow also altered the preferential dissolution to fast uniform dissolution of metal elements.

In this study, a gas-liquid hybrid atmospheric pressure plasma reactor of the dielectric barrier discharge method was fabricated and characterized. The solubility of copper oxide in the organic acid solution was increased when argon having a larger atomic weight than helium was used during plasma discharge. There was no significant effect of mixing organic acid solutions under plasma discharge treatment on the variation of copper oxide's solubility. As the applied voltage for plasma discharge and the concentration of the organic acid solution increased, the dissolution and removal power of the copper oxide layer increased. Solubility of copper oxide was more affected by the concentration in organic acid solution rather than the variation of plasma applied voltage. The usefulness of hybrid plasma reactor for the surface cleaning process was confirmed.

This article reports a new chemical bath for preparing a mirror-like surface of AZ31 Mg alloy. In order to find an appropriate chemical polishing solution, four different acidic solutions of sulphuric acid, nitric acid, acetic acid and a specially designed mixture of nitric acid and acetic acid were investigated in view of the changes in surface appearance, roughness and dissolution rate of AZ31 Mg alloy. The surface scales on AZ31 Mg alloy were readily removed by all the acidic solutions, but a reflective surface was produced only by etching in the specially designed solution, and only after a specific etching time. The surface roughness increased with etching time in sulphuric acid, nitric acid, and acetic acid, but it lowered after a specific etching time in the specially designed mixture of nitric acid and acetic acid. Dissolution rate of the alloy in the specially designed mixture of nitric acid and acetic acid appeared to be more than twice than that in separate nitric acid or acetic acid. In this work, we recommend the mirror-like surface of AZ31 Mg alloy obtained by polishing for an optimum time in a mixture of nitric acid and acetic acid for following surface finishings, chemical conversion coating, electroplating, electrophoretic painting and anodizing treatment.

Effect on iron dissolution from iron sauce pans treated with the acetic, malic, citric acid and concentration(0. 0.02. 0.04. 0.1, 0.2, 0.4. 1.0, 2.0, 4.0%) of acidity, boiling times(0, 10. 20, 30, 40, 50, 60mins.) and temperature(5, 20, 40. 60, 80, 10$0^{\circ}C$) of acidity solution and in new and used sauce pans was investigated. As acetic acid concentration increases, iron content has increased. Iron dissolution concentration from iron sauce pan for boiling in malic acid increased more than that of acetic acid and citric acid. At above 6$0^{\circ}C$, as temperature increases, concentration of iron dissolved from iron sauce pan has increased. As boiling time increases, concentration of iron dissolved from iron sauce pan has also increased. Concentration of iron by repeated use has increased. And iron concentration has dissolved in large amount from new pan rather than used pan. Concentration of iron with distilled water by repeated use has increased only slightly. But 1% acetic acid has dissolved in large quantities.

In oxidizing nitric acid solutions, stainless steel undergoes intergranular corrosion accompanied by grain dropping and changes in the corrosion rate. For the safe operation of reprocessing plants, this mechanism should be understood. In this study, we constructed a three-dimensional computational model using a cellular automata method to simulate the intergranular corrosion propagation of stainless steel. The computational model was constructed of three types of cells: grain (bulk), grain boundary (GB), and solution cells. Model simulations verified the relationship between surface roughness during corrosion and dispersion of the dissolution rate of the GB. The relationship was investigated by simulation applying a constant dissolution rate and a distributed dissolution rate of the GB cells. The distribution of the dissolution rate of the GB cells was derived from the intergranular corrosion depth obtained by corrosion tests. The constant dissolution rate of the GB was derived from the average dissolution rate. Surface roughness calculated by the distributed dissolution rates of the GBs of the model was greater than the constant dissolution rates of the GBs. The cross-sectional images obtained were comparable to the corrosion test results. These results indicate that the surface roughness during corrosion is associated with the distribution of the corrosion rate.

For an application as templates of high performance with proper pore size and shape, porous anodic alumina films were prepared by anodization in oxalic acid, and formation behaviors of anodic alumina layer as well as dissolution process in acid solution have been investigated. The surface characteristics on anodic alumina layer were shown to be dependent on the fabrication parameters for anodization. For the dissolution behaviors of anodic alumina, the thickness of the barrier-type alumina layer decreased linearly with the rate of 0.98 nm/min in $H_3PO_4$ solution at $30^{\circ}C$. The changes of the anodic alumina layers were analyzed by SEM and TEM.

Stability and chemical durability for aqueous casting of BaTiO3 slurry with polycarylic acid(PAA) were studied. PAA was well chemisorbed on surface of BaTiO3 powder at neutral pH but did not chemically adsorbed at low pH. The amount of Ba dissolution in aqueous BaTiO3 slurry was abruptly increased at strong acid pH2 and also at high amount of PAA. Protection of Ba dissolution and stability of slurry could be obtained through the optimization of slurry conditions such as pH amount of surfactant and solid content.

The dissolution characteristic of metal shows the different tendency according to the applied electrical potential, the kind of electrolyte and pH value, etc. In the micro electrochemical machining (ECM), unfavorable oxide/passive layer formation and overall corrosion of electrodes must be prevented. The anodic polarization curve of nickel has distinct three dissolution regions, i.e. two active regions and the transpassive dissolution region. In this paper, the stable electrode potentials of workpiece and tool were determined in sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid solution, respectively. In each solution, different machining property was shown and possible electrochemical reactions were discussed. On the basis of this experiment, the methodology to obtain the proper electrode potential was suggested.

In order to increase the dissolution rate of furosemide(4-choro-N-furfury1-5-sulfamoy1 anthranilic acid_, various ratio coprecipitates with water-soluble polymers, such as polyvinylpyrrolidone and polythylene glycol, of different molecular weight, were prepared and quantitatively studied by comparing their dissolution characteristics of furosemide at powder state and at nondisintegrating disk state containing constant surface area at various temperatures and rotating velocities. The dissolution characteristics of furosemide from pure furosemide disks and 1:2(w/w) furosemide-PVP coprecipitate disks were in accordance with Noyes-Nernst equation and the rate constant of dissolution was proportional to the square root of rotating velocity of the disks. The intrinsic rate of dissoluton at 150 rpm, 37.deg.C was $2.21{\times}10^{-7}$ for the PVP 10, 000 COPRECIPITATE, $1.64{\times}10^{-7}$ for the PVP 40, 000 coprecipitate, and$ 1.44 {\times} 10^{-7}$for the PVP 360, 000 corprecipitate, while the rate was $1.27{\times}10^{-8}M/cm^{2} min$ for pure furosemide, repectively. The activation energy of dissolution was about 17, 000 for furosemide and about 7, 300 cal/mole for the 1:2 furosemide PVP 40, 000 coprecipitate, respectively.

This study explored secondary effects of the residual hydrofluoric acid (HF) after a hypothetical acid spill accident by investigating the long-term dissolution of minerals and leaching of pre-existing arsenic (As) from two soil samples (i.e., KBS and KBM) through batch and column experiments. An increase in the HF concentration in both soil samples resulted in a dramatic increase in the release of major cations, especially Si. However, the amounts of mineral dissolved were dependent on the soil type and mineral characteristics. Compared to the KBM soil, relatively more Ca, Mg and Si were dissolved from the KBS soil. The column experiment showed that the long-term dissolution rates of the minerals are closely associated with the acid buffering capacity of the two soils. The KBM soil had relatively higher effluent pH values compared to the KBS soil. Also, more As was leached from the KBM soil, with a more amorphous hydrous oxide-bound As fraction. These results suggest that the potential of heavy metal leaching by the residual acid after an acid spill will be influenced by heavy metal speciation and mineral structure in the affected soil.
