“…SVET was used to study the localised corrosion characteristics and the relative corrosion performance. It is a powerful technique in corrosion research and has been employed in a range of investigations, such as galvanic corrosion, pitting corrosion, corrosion inhibitors, stress corrosion cracking, and cut-edge corrosion 4,15,16,21,22,[34][35][36][37] . The samples were prepared as mentioned in section 5.2.1 though they were not etched.…”
