Evaluation of Effect Of Operating Temperature To Corrosion under Insulation (CUI)

Corrosion under insulation (CUI) is a major common problem shared by all of the refining, power, industrial, petrochemical, onshore and offshore industries on a worldwide scale. CUI is a form of localized external corrosion that occurs in carbon manganese, low alloy, and austenitic stainless steel p...
