  1. Dezincification and Brass Lead Leaching in Premise Plumbing Systems: Effects of Alloy, Physical Conditions and Water Chemistry

    … physical factors including stirring, heating and galvanic connections are also potentially influential. A mechanistic study of zinc solubility and corrosion of copper: zinc couples provided insight to factors that might mitigate and exacerbate zinc leaching from brass. Zinc solubility and …

  2. Influences of Water Chemistry and Flow Conditions on Non-Uniform Corrosion in Copper Tube

    … flow conditions, corrosion inhibitors, and galvanic connections of copper pipes to other metallic plumbing materials. The severity of pitting corrosion was observed to be dramatically decreased by lower free chlorine residual concentrations, high alkalinity, and sufficient doses of copper …

  3. Insights Into Non-Uniform Copper and Brass Corrosion in Potable Water Systems

    … becomes more selective for zinc; but if galvanic connections are made between the copper tubes and brass, selectivity for zinc is reduced while overall corrosion rates are accelerated. As opposed to copper tubing, plastic maintains oxidant (e.g., free chlorine) levels, and may thereby …

    … of potential long-term problems arising from galvanic corrosion between the remaining lead pipe and the newly installed copper pipe. Bench-scale experiments demonstrated that galvanic connections between lead pipe (new or aged) and copper pipe increased lead release into the water by 1.1-16 …
