    The Corrosive and Explosive Substances and Offensive Weapons Act 1958 (Malay: Akta Bahan-Bahan Kakisan dan Letupan dan Senjata Berbahaya 1958) is a Malaysian law which enacted to provide certain penalties relating to the unlawful possession of corrosive and explosive substances and the carrying of offensive weapons.

  3. Microsoft Office password protection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Office_password...

    In Excel and Word 95 and prior editions a weak protection algorithm is used that converts a password to a 16-bit verifier and a 16-byte XOR obfuscation array [1] key. [4] Hacking software is now readily available to find a 16-byte key and decrypt the password-protected document. [5] Office 97, 2000, XP and 2003 use RC4 with 40 bits. [4]

  4. Cathodic protection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathodic_protection

    The results achieved by both these electronic corrosion inhibitor devices point to the need for further research and testing in order to better understand how these devices are able to generate a shift in the potential of the metal panels, i.e., a cathodic effect, in the absence of a continuous electrolytic path required to close the electrical ...

  5. Pitting corrosion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitting_corrosion

    Pitting corrosion, or pitting, is a form of extremely localized corrosion that leads to the random creation of small holes in metal. The driving power for pitting corrosion is the depassivation of a small area, which becomes anodic (oxidation reaction) while an unknown but potentially vast area becomes cathodic (reduction reaction), leading to ...

  6. Wet storage stain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet_storage_stain

    Wet storage stain, more commonly known as white rust or white corrosion, is a type of zinc corrosion.It is called wet storage stain because it occurs when a fresh zinc surface is stored in a wet environment with limited oxygen and carbon dioxide sources; the restriction in air is usually due to the items being stacked on one another or otherwise stored in close quarters.

  7. Corrosion inhibitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrosion_inhibitor

    A corrosion inhibitor or anti-corrosive is a chemical compound added to a liquid or gas to decrease the corrosion rate of a metal that comes into contact with the fluid. [1] The effectiveness of a corrosion inhibitor depends on fluid composition and dynamics .

  8. Microbial corrosion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microbial_corrosion

    This usually involves the formation of a biofilm, which can either increase the corrosion of the surface or, in a process called microbial corrosion inhibition, protect the surface from corrosion. As every surface exposed to the environment is in some way also exposed to microbes, [ 1 ] microbial corrosion causes trillions of dollars in damage ...
