文摘The influence of varying levels of impurity elements on the hot corrosion resistance of the DD98M alloy in Na_(2)SO_(4)+NaCl salt at 950℃ was investigated.The results indicate that the corrosion resistance of the DD98M alloy significantly decreases with an increase in impurity content,and the presence of nitrogen leads to an increase in alloy porosity.These porosities promote the rapid diffusion of molten salt and oxygen into the alloy,resulting in a bilateral diffusion of oxygen and sulfur,which leads to an accumulation of these elements at the oxide−matrix interface.This process contributes to the formation and propagation of interfacial cracks.A growth model was developed for hot corrosion products in alloys with varying impurity elements.

文摘The dissimilar 2B06 and 7B04 Al alloy joints were prepared by refill friction stir spot welding(RFSSW),and the microstructural evolution and corrosion behavior of the joints were investigated.Based on microstructural analysis,the welded joints exhibit distinct microstructural zones,including the stir zone(SZ),thermomechanically affected zone(TMAZ),and heat-affected zone(HAZ).The grain size of each zone is in the order of HAZ>TMAZ>SZ.Notably,the TMAZ and HAZ contain significantly larger secondary-phase particles compared to the SZ,with particle size in the HAZ increasing at higher rotational speeds.Electrochemical tests indicate that corrosion susceptibility follows the sequence of HAZ>TMAZ>SZ>BM,with greater sensitivity observed at increased rotational speeds.Post-corrosion mechanical performance degradation primarily arises from crevice corrosion at joint overlaps,but not from the changes in the microstructure.

文摘The impact of Mn addition on the microstructure,mechanical properties and corrosion behavior of T6-treated Al−Si−Mg−xMn(x=0.2−1.0 wt.%)alloys in a 3.5 wt.%NaCl solution was investigated.The results showed that adding 0.2 wt.%Mn to T6-treated Al−Si−Mg alloys enhanced the corrosion resistance by promoting the formation ofα-AlFeMnSi phase,characterized by smaller absolute Volta potential values compared to eutectic Si,β-AlFeSi andπ-AlFeMgSi phases.However,the addition of 0.5 wt.%Mn and 1.0 wt.%Mn to the T6-treated Al−Si−Mg alloys increased the size of theα-AlFeMnSi phase.This decreased the properties of T6-treated Al−Si−Mg alloys.Therefore,the optimum Mn content was 0.2 wt.%,providing a novel approach for synergistically enhancing mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of Al−Si−Mg alloys.

文摘The effect of low concentrated green inhibitors based on Ce-adipate and Ce-chloride on the corrosion of 7075 aluminum alloy in neutral NaCl electrolyte was studied.Corrosion studies were carried out using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)and linear sweep voltammetry(LSV)while scanning electron microscopy(SEM)and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)were used to conduct surface studies of the alloy upon immersion in the corrosion media.The electrochemical experiments reveal a better inhibitory effect of Ce-adipate than Ce-chloride owing to a higher polarization resistance value(about two times),and a lower corrosion current density.However,both inhibitors act as cathodic inhibitors,show high resistance to pitting corrosion,and enable sufficient protection during prolonged immersion(240 h)in corrosion media.The XPS analysis confirms the presence of cerium in the oxidation states of Ce(III)and Ce(IV)together with the carboxylate-COO−groups and C-C and C-H bonds on the tested specimen with Ce-adipate inhibitor,which are connected to the increased anti-corrosion efficiency.

文摘Waterborne acrylic coatings are widely utilized due to their cost-effectiveness,high transparency,strong resistance to weather and chemicals,impressive mechanical properties,and excellent adhesion to various substrates.In these coatings,a reactive emulsifier containing phosphate groups can be integrated into the molecular chain during polymerization,which enhances the coating's compactness and corrosion resistance.This work focuses on the synthesis of styrene-butyl acrylate(St-BA)latex and methyl methacrylate-butyl acrylate(MMA-BA)latex using the reactive phosphate emulsifier ANPEO_(10)-P_(1) through seed emulsion polymerization,achieving a conversion rate of approximately 99%and a solid content close to 50%.The resulting coatings from St-BA and MMA-BA latexes demonstrated long-term corrosion protection for carbon steel and aluminum alloy due to in-situ phosphatization,effectively preventing flash rust.Notably,the MMA-BA coating exhibited remarkable durability,enduring immersion for up to 1224 h(51 d)on Q 235 carbon steel before reaching the failure threshold(|Z|0.01 Hz£106Ω·cm^(2))on Q 235 carbon steel.On 5052 aluminum alloy,the St-BA coating maintained|Z|0.01 Hz>10^(8)Ω·cm^(2) for 480 h(20 d).Furthermore,the corrosion resistance of St-BA and MMA BA coatings on Q 235 steel sheet and 5052 aluminum alloy surpassed that of commercially available MMA-BA and St BA coatings after immersion in a 3.5 wt%NaCl aqueous solution.This work also delves into the anticorrosion mechanism of MMA-BA and St-BA coatings.

文摘Economical,stable,and corrosion-resistant catalytic electrodes are still urgently needed for the oxygen evolution reaction(OER)in water and seawater.Herein,a mild electroless plating strategy is used to achieve large-scale preparation of the“integrated”phosphorus-based precatalyst(FeP-NiP)on nickel foam(NF),which is in situ reconstructed into a highly active and corrosion-resistant(Fe)NiOOH phase for OER.The interaction between phosphate anions(PO_(x)^(y-))and iron ions(Fe^(3+))tunes the electronic structure of the catalytic phase to further enhance OER kinetics.The integrated FeP-NiP@NF electrode exhibits low overpotentials for OER in alkaline water/seawater,requiring only 275/289,320/336,and 349/358 mV to reach 0.1,0.5,and 1.0 A cm^(−2),respectively.The in situ reconstructed PO_(x)^(y-)anion electrostatically repels Cl−in seawater electrolytes,allowing stable operation for over 7 days at 1.0 A cm^(−2) in extreme electrolytes(1.0 M KOH+seawater and 6.0 M KOH+seawater),demonstrating industrial-level stability.This study overcomes the complex synthesis limitations of P-based materials through innovative material design,opening new avenues for electrochemical energy conversion.

文摘Corrosion poses a major threat to the safety of transportation pipelines.Therefore,it is crucial to have an in-depth understanding of corrosion mechanisms in pipeline steels for the effective management of pipeline integrity.Conducting research on corrosion mechanisms relies on the use of efficient and reliable corrosion monitoring and analysis techniques.The advancements in corrosion monitoring techniques specifically designed for the localized corrosion monitoring were aimed to be introduced,and a comprehensive overview of recent progress in understanding the localized corrosion mechanisms in pipeline steels was provided.Based on the different corrosive environments encountered,the localized corrosion issues inside pipelines are classified into two categories:localized corrosion primarily influenced by electrochemical processes and localized corrosion controlled by both electrochemical and mechanical factors.Additionally,a thorough analysis of the synergistic effects between micro-cell and macro-cell currents,as well as the interplay of mechanics and electrochemistry is presented.Finally,recommendations for future research on the mechanisms of internal localized corrosion in pipelines are provided.

文摘The atmospheric corrosion monitoring(ACM)technique has been widely employed to track the real-time corrosion behavior of metal materials.However,limited studies have applied ACM to the corrosion protection properties of organic coatings.This study compared a bare epoxy coating with one containing zinc phosphate corrosion inhibitors,both applied on ACM sensors,to observe their corrosion protection properties over time.Coatings with artificial damage via scratches were exposed to immersion and alternating dry and wet environments,which allowed for monitoring galvanic corrosion currents in real-time.Throughout the corrosion tests,the ACM currents of the zinc phosphate/epoxy coating were considerably lower than those of the blank epoxy coating.The trend in ACM current variations closely matched the results obtained from regular electrochemical tests and surface analysis.This alignment highlights the potential of the ACM technique in evaluating the corrosion protection capabilities of organic coatings.Compared with the blank epoxy coating,the zinc phosphate/epoxy coating showed much-decreased ACM current values that confirmed the effective inhibition of zinc phosphate against steel corrosion beneath the damaged coating.

文摘The rust layer is a critical factor in determining the corrosion resistance performance of weathering bridge steel.Understanding the evolution mechanism of this rust layer is fundamental for the design and optimization of such steel.This study investigates the evolu-tion of the rust layer on high-Cr-content weathering bridge steel,using an atmospheric corrosion monitoring(ACM)sensor and big data mining techniques in a simulated tropical marine atmosphere.Results reveal that the protective properties of the rust layer follow a peri-odic pattern of“ascending–constant”rather than a continuous ascending.Correlation analysis indicates that this phenomenon is attributed to the introduction of Cr,which promotes the formation of FeCr_(2)O_(4) in the rust layer.FeCr_(2)O_(4) helps prevent chloride ions from penetrating the rust layer,exerting a protective effect.These findings provide a strong scientific foundation for the design and improvement of new high-Cr-content weathering bridge steels.

文摘The corrosion behavior of deposit-covered aluminum alloy 7075(AA7075)caused by fungus Aspergillus terreus(A.terreus)was thoroughly investigated in artificial seawater aiming to offer some new insights into the under-deposit corrosion mechanism of aluminum alloys in marine environments containing fungi.Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy,polarization curves,wire beam electrodes,and surface analysis were performed.Results indicate that A.terreus can survive beneath the deposit but the counts of sessile spores decline as the increase of deposit thickness,suggesting a poor biological activity of A.terreus beneath the deposit.Both the uniform corrosion and pitting corrosion are accelerated by A.terreus,while the pitting corrosion of AA7075 alloys beneath the deposit derives from a galvanic cell with a small anode and a large cathode.Deposits have a corrosion inhibition effect on AA7075.However,the galvanic effect caused by the bare and deposit-covered AA specimens is obviously enhanced by A.terreus.

文摘The corrosion problems of high-voltage power transmission conductors typically occur in environments with electric fields.However,current research mainly focuses on atmospheric corrosion of metals with limited attention to the combined effects of electric fields and atmospheric conditions on metal corrosion.This study established a corrosion prediction model that considers the effects of electric fields and dynamic boundaries.Because of the influence of dynamic boundaries,this model can calculate parameters such as corrosion rate,corrosion depth,corrosion product accumulation and ion concentration for metal samples with and without an external electric field.The model is validated through indoor accelerated corrosion tests under low applied electric fields and by using aluminium alloy conductor samples from high electric field regions of actual±500 kV power transmission lines.The results indicate that the corrosion rate of aluminium alloys initially increases and then decreases over time.Additionally,the corrosion rate of aluminium alloys under an applied electric field is higher than that without an electric field during the same period.The mechanism of increased corrosion rate is analysed to be that the presence of the electric field accelerates the cathode reaction rate of the electrode.The corrosion rate of the sample increased by about 78%under a lower electric field(0-20 kV/m)and by about 2.75 times under a higher electric field around 2000 kV/m.

文摘A new type of corrosion-resistant alloyed-steel rebar,Cr10MoV,was researched using techniques such as corrosion electrochemistry,X-ray computed tomography,and zero resistance ammeter to systematically study the macro-cell corrosion behavior and corrosion resistance of alloyed-steel rebar in mortar and concrete samples induced by chloride ion concentration in the marine environment.The macro-cell corrosion characteristics and development patterns induced by chloride ion concentration in alloyed-steel rebar were preliminarily revealed.In the macro-cell corrosion system of rebar mortar samples induced by 29 times chloride ion concentration,the corrosion current density of the alloyed-steel rebar combination stabilizes at 1.6–2.4μA/cm^(2),which is only one-third of that of the carbon-steel rebar combination,while the dissimilar steel rebar combination stabilizes at 0–0.4μA/cm^(2).Alloyed-steel rebar and carbon-steel rebar are configured in high concentration and low concentration chlorine salt areas,respectively.With the help of high corrosion resistance,the long-term stable corrosion resistance of alloyed-steel rebar is ensured.The potential difference between carbon-steel rebar and alloyed-steel rebar is reduced to weaken the driving force of macro-cell corrosion.It is a useful way to inhibit the macro-cell corrosion of dissimilar steel rebar and ensure the high corrosion resistance and durability of marine reinforced concrete structures.
