Chloride Sulfate Mass Ratio (CSMR) and Nitrate Acceleration of Galvanic Lead- Bearing Solder Corrosion

Lead corrosion in premise plumbing systems from materials, such as lead pipes, soldered joints, and brass, can cause elevated lead in drinking water. This work examined mechanisms by which galvanic corrosion of lead solder:copper joints is accelerated by high chloride, low sulfate, and high nitrate...
