Effect of acid-corrosion inhibitors on the pickling of scale from steels

OSTI ID:6054005

This article examines features of the dissolution of scale and its component oxides in contact with steel in acids. It also looks at possible kinetic mechanisms of the dissolution of iron oxides, the effect of inhibitors and other additives on the dissolution of the metal and scale, and methods of measuring the dynamics of pickling. A distinction is made between high-temperature scale formed on plain-carbon and low-alloy steels above 570-800/degree/C and low-temperature scale formed below 570/degree/C.
