Most people wandering past a copper-coated building have noticed that the metal typically becomes green when it corrodes. Scientists know that several copper degradation species are responsible for ...

Copper and its alloys are often utilized for their superior heat transfer properties to maintain industrial cooling water systems. While useful for this purpose, these materials are often susceptible ...

Developing a feedwater chemistry program that will minimize corrosion across a variety of metallurgies doesn’t have to be difficult. This article reviews the requirements for three common metallurgies ...

Researchers are working to get a better look at how peroxides on the surface of copper oxide promote the oxidation of hydrogen but inhibit the oxidation of carbon monoxide, allowing them to steer ...

A golden pothos plant (Epipremnum aureum) and a scanning electron microscope image of its surface microstructures. Researchers are taking inspiration from its surface patterns to make a safer copper ...
