In order to clarify the role of MO on the passivation of FeCr-Mo alloys, the critical current density in stationary polarization curves of several alloys, with and without MO, are compared with the maximum current density in potential step measurements. The results showed that MO increases the disso
## Abstract Several derivatives of 2‐mercaptopyrimidine (containing ‐OH, ‐SH, ‐NH~2~ or ‐CH~3~ substituents) have been studied as corrosion inhibitors of ARMCO iron and low alloy steels in 1 M sulphuric acid solutions. Tests have been conducted during 6 h in the temperature interval between 60 and
## Abstract Conventional thermomechanical processing of low‐carbon steels leads to a characteristic texture dominated by a strong <111>//ND fiber after recrystallization. The latter texture is beneficial for certain applications, such as deep drawing, while it is detrimental for others, including m
