Biocorrosion and Localization of Degradation Processes on the Steel Surface of a Gas Main

  • Published:
Materials Science Aims and scope

We establish basic regularities of influence of sulfate-reducing bacteria on the biocorrosion of 17G1S-U steel. The mechanisms of degradation of steel surfaces are generalized by the methods of topographic analysis, microindentation, and fractographic diagnostics. We also propose inhibitors of biocorrosion and substantiate the efficiency of their application.
