Development of a novel method for the in-situ dechlorination of immovable iron elements: optimization of Cl− extraction yield through experimental design
Abstract The conservation of iron objects exposed to marine aerosol is threatened by the formation of akaganeite, a highly unstable Cl-bearing corrosion phase. As akaganeite formation is responsible of the exfoliation of the rust layer, chlorides trigger a cyclic alteration phenomenon that often end...
