Microbiologically influenced corrosion of mild steel and stainless steel by pseudomonas aeruginosa in enriched artificial sea water / Ahmad Hisham Mohamed Aris
Corrosion damage in the form of pitting corrosion was observed on both mild steel ASTM 283-D and stainless steel 304 after being exposed to Pseudomonas aeruginosa-inoculated enriched artificial seawater (EASW) after 7 days and 14 days exposure period. To determine the difference in corrosion severit...

Corrosion damage in the form of pitting corrosion was observed on both mild steel ASTM 283-D and stainless steel 304 after being exposed to Pseudomonas aeruginosa-inoculated enriched artificial seawater (EASW) after 7 days and 14 days exposure period.

Corrosion phenomenon was confirmed by the increase of corrosion rate and surface roughness values. Imaging of the pitting corrosion with FESEM and IFM together with elemental composition of the pitting with EDS confirmed the form of corrosion that took place on both steels in the presence of the bacterium.
