Abstract: This disclosure provides alloy compositions comprising the main constituent elements iron, nickel, cobalt, molybdenum, and chromium. In one embodiment, the alloy comprises 10.0 to 30.0 wt % iron; 30.0 to 60.0 wt % nickel; 10.0 to 25.0 wt % cobalt; 1.0 to 15.0 wt % molybdenum; 15.0 to 25.0 wt % chromium by weight; where the sum of iron and nickel is at least 50 wt %; and, where the balance comprises minor elements, the total amount of minor elements being about 5% or less by weight. The alloy compositions have use as coatings to protect metals and alloys from corrosion in extreme environments where corrosion is a major concern such as with exposure to sea water or sea water with CO2.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to methods, systems and apparatus for detecting corrosion using a detector apparatus with a host component. The method includes a detector apparatus. The detector apparatus includes an energy source; a corrosion proxy thin film that corrodes at a rate where the normalized change of mass of the film over time is greater than the normalized change of mass of the bulk material of the host component in a harsh environment; and the detector, wherein the detector is capable of detecting a change in energy due to corrosion of the corrosion proxy thin film. The method includes exposing the host component and the corrosion proxy thin film to the harsh environment; and detecting a change in energy using the detector due to corrosion of the corrosion proxy thin film.
