Adventures in Corrosion Science

这个女性职业发展研究机会奖是在分析化学和表面化学领域。纽约州立大学布法罗分校化学系的Janet G. Osteryoung博士将使用脉冲伏安法研究铜在盐酸溶液中的腐蚀。对这一基本系统的研究将允许对技术进行测试，并将结果与其他方法的结果进行比较，并为铁质钢的进一步研究奠定基础。该奖项还将允许Osteryoung博士访问一些在腐蚀研究方面有重要项目的实验室，从而更加熟悉该领域并获得对其计划的批评。该奖项将为奥斯特杨博士开辟一个新的研究领域，他以前的工作一直是利用电分析化学技术解决分析化学问题。

This Research Opportunies for Women Career Advancement Award is in the area of analytical and surface chemistry. Dr. Janet G. Osteryoung of the Chemistry Department of the State University of New York at Buffalo will use pulse voltammetry to investigate corrosion of copper in hydrochloric acid solution. Study of this basic system will allow testing of the technique and comparison of findings to those of other methods, and lay the foundation for extended study of ferrous steels. The award will also permit Dr. Osteryoung to visit a number of laboratories which have significant programs in corrosion studies, thus becoming more familiar with the field and obtaining critiques of her plans. This award will open a new area of investigation to Dr. Osteryoung, whose previous work has been in solving analytical chemistry problems using electroanalytical chemistry techniques.
