Library of Technical Papers

Since our founding Corrosion Service has and remains a leader in the corrosion control industry, supporting the various industries in North America and around the World ensuring asset integrity by providing responsible engineering services.

As part of our continued commitment, we would like to welcome you to our electronic Library as the place to view our various technical papers written and presented since 1950 supporting, educating and advancing the corrosion industry advancement.

On your left you can select the author of interest to view all papers presented or enter a search by topic. For each, an abstract is provided and a download link for your review. We would be please to assist if you have any questions and feel free to contact us.

Sorin Segal Technical Library Dedication

The Corrosion Service Library

We converted a prime corner office into a Library at our Head Office and dedicated the room to Sorin Segall because of his commitment to Corrosion Service, the numerous papers presented, the engineering mentoring within Corrosion Service and to our industry. We would be pleased for you to come and view this comprehensive library that includes various text books, relevant publications, all NACE Materials Performance magazines presented since first publication, technical bulletins and various other related corrosion related print material.

A few years ago the word “corrosion” was not used with familiarity by most of those people charged with the maintenance of underground plant facilities. Rusting usually manifested itself in “red water” problems. Pitting in boilers was recognized as a treatment inadequacy. Leaking in underground […]

This paper reports another successful application in industry of the rapidly expanding science of anodic protection. In the seven years during which this application has been under development, anodic protection has emerged from the laboratory into industry, where it is now being successfully used in […]

Recent work has made possible the application of anodic protection techniques to metals in active chemical environments. One outcome of this research is strong evidence to suggest that mild carbon steel and low alloy stainless steel can be rendered almost inert to severely corroding environments. […]

Since aqueous corrosion is electrochemical in nature, it is logical that electrochemical techniques can be used in its control. The electrochemical corrosion cell is made up of four essential components: the anode or electrode at which oxidizing processes take place and usually corrosion; the cathode […]

The ground (soils) does not confine electrical current to discrete paths in the same way as electrical cables do. It is meaningful to talk about the resistance per foot of a copper wire, but not meaningful to talk about the resistance per foot of a […]
