Factors controlling corrosion in high-temperature aqueous solutions: a contribution to the dissociation and solubility data influencing corrosion processes

Typical materials for applications in high-temperature, high-pressure aqueous solutions are stainless steels, nickel-base alloys, titanium, tantalum, noble metals, or ceramics. Under these conditions, these materials are often severely attacked, especially in the presence of acids, salts, or gases. Corrosion phenomena in high-temperature aqueous solutions are mainly influenced by the following factors: dissociation of acids, salts, and bases,...
