8 OCTOBER 2017 MATERIALS PERFORMANCE NACE INTERNATIONAL: VOL. 56, NO. 10 Discussed this Month Following are just a few of the articles featured this month on www.materialsperformance.com. Features Retrofitting Wind Turbine Monopiles with Cathodic Protection A strategy to provide monopiles with a corrosion prevention system included resealing the J-tubes to prevent seawater flushing and installing a galvanic cathodic protection (CP) system inside the submerged section of the monopile. Study: Lack of Corrosion Controls Caused Flint Water Crisis Led by university researchers, the findings of this new study support the understanding that lead leached into the pipe system in Flint, Michigan, because the water wasn't treated to prevent corrosion. Editor's Choice Coupons for Cathodic Protection Evaluation of Mixed-Metal Piping Systems The measurement and interpretation of CP data in plants or other complex facilities present inherent challenges where mixed metals are electrically continuous within the protected structures' CP system. (A Science Behind It feature with links to CORROSION journal articles.) Self-Consolidating Concrete, Galvanic Anodes Used for Bridge Repairs A Virginia Department of Transportation investigation focuses on the use of self- consolidating concrete to repair substructure elements with vertical and overhead sections. The research also explores the use of galvanic anodes in self-consolidating concrete repairs.
