AbstractPolarization data characterize the corrosion behavior of a metal giving a quick estimate of corrosion current density icorr and corrosion potential Ecorr. These two characteristics determine the corrosion rate and position of the metal in galvanic series. The chosen system for the study is steel (SS304) in NaCl solution. In these studies, icorr and Ecorr of Butler-Volmer equation are obtained by fitting the full expression to experimental current vs potential data unlike the graphical method using Tafelslopes. MATLAB optimization tool box is utilized for this purpose. The novel optimization technique is explained for determining Ecorr and icorr

AbstractThe electrochemical behavior of gold dissolution in the Cu2+–NH3–S2O32−–EDTA solution has been investigated in detail by deriving and analyzing the Tafel polarization curve, as this method is currently widely implemented for the electrode corrosion analysis. The dissolution rate of gold in Cu2+–NH3–S2O32−–EDTA solution was determined based on the Tafel polarization curves, and the effects of various compound compositions in a Cu2+–NH3–S2O32−–EDTA mixture on the corrosion potential and corrosion current density were analyzed. The results showed that the corrosion potential and polarization resistance decreased, whereas the corrosion current density increased for certain concentrations of S2O32−–NH3–Cu2+ and EDTA, indicating that the dissolution rate of gold had changed. The reason for promoting the dissolution of gold is also discussed.

Microstructural optimization of Al-Li alloys plays a key role in the adjustment of mechanical properties as well as corrosion behavior. In this work, Al-5Cu-1Li-0.6Mg-0.5Ag-0.5Mn alloy was homogenized at different temperatures and holding times, followed by aging treatment. The microstructure and composition of the homogenized alloys and aged alloys were investigated. There were Al7Cu4Li phase, Al3Li phase, and Al2CuLi phases in the homogenized alloys. The Al7Cu4Li phase was dissolved with an increase in homogenization temperature and holding time. Al2Cu phase and Al2CuLi phase coarsened during the homogenization process. The alloy homogenized at 515 °C for 20 h was subjected to a two-stage aging treatment. Peak-age alloy, which had gone through age treatment at 120 °C for 4 h and 180 °C for 6 h, was mainly composed of α-Al, Al20Cu2Mn3, Al2CuLi, Al2Cu, and Al3Li phases. Tafel polarization of the peak-age alloys revealed the corrosion potential and corrosion current density to be −779 mV and 2.979 μA/cm2, respectively. The over-age alloy had a more positive corrosion potential of −658 mV but presented a higher corrosion current of 6.929 μA/cm2.

Electrochemical Characteristics

In the environment with H2S/CO2 or Na2S, the corrosion behavior of Lanthanum hexaboride (LaB6) was investigated by electrochemistry methods. The results indicated that the corrosion potential (Ecorr) and Rf of LaB6 increased as the partial pressure of H2S increased, while the corrosion current density (Icorr) decreased. In the environment containing Na2S, as the content of Na2S increased, the corrosion potential (Ecorr) and Rf of LaB6 decreased, while the corrosion current density (Icorr) increased. Thus, the addition of H2S into the environment with H2S/CO2 would inhibit the corrosion of LaB6; while in the environment containing Na2S, the increasing of the content of Na2S would accelerate the corrosion of LaB6.

Recently, many types of constructional steels have been often exposed to severely corrosive environments due to acid rain with increasing environmental contamination. To control corrosion problems, a painting protection method has been widely applied to numerous constructional steels on land as well as offshore. Therefore, development of anti-corrosive paint with good quality of corrosion resistance is very important from an economical perspective. In this study, four types of anti-corrosive paint were coated to test specimens, and then, were immersed in various salt solutions (0.1, 3 and 9% NaCl solution) for 11 days. Corrosion resistance of these samples by effect of osmotic pressure with various salt concentration was investigated with electrochemical methods such as measurement of corrosion potential, impedance and corrosion current density. Corrosion current density of these samples submerged in 0.1% NaCl solution exhibited highest value than those immersed in 3% and 9% NaCl solutions because water, dissolved oxygen and chloride ion etc. is easily to invade towards inner side of coating film due to increasing osmotic pressure compared to 3% and 9% NaCl solutions. However, corrosion current densities of all samples in the case of submerged in 9% NaCl solution exhibited higher values compared to 3% NaCl solution.Thus, a large amount of chloride ion dissolved in 9% NaCl solution plays a more critical role in corrosion behavior of coated steel rather than osmotic pressure. Consequently, the corrosion mechanism between coated steel and bare steel plates is different from each other because of presence of osmotic pressure between salt solution and coating film of coated steel plate. As a result, corrosion resistance of tcoated steel plate may be depend on the osmotic pressure as well as salt concentration

The microstructure and electrochemical properties of Ce-containing 7072 Al alloy were investigated through transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Tafel polarization analysis. It was found that Ce alloying could result in a formation of finer grains in the simulated brazing alloys. The 7072 Al alloy with 0.15% Ce had desirable distribution of precipitates. The electrochemical testing results indicated that Ce element had a great impact on the corrosion potential of the alloy tested in 0.5% NaCl solution. Alloying with 0.15% Ce element could make the corrosion potential shift to inert direction and reduce the corrosion current density. An excessive Ce addition could weaken its positive effect on the corrosion resistance of the Ce-containing alloy.

In this paper, the feasibility of inhibitor auxiliary re-alkalization was investigated. The effect of realkalization auxiliary inhibitor repair technique was studied by simulative experiment. It studied the changes of electrochemical parameters of the natural carbonated reinforced concrete during the electrochemical realkalization in 1mol/L Na2CO3 solution and the mixed solution of 1mol/L Na2CO3 and 1 mol/L DMEA , as well as the impedance spectroscopy and polarization curves in the process of relaxation. The results showed that: there appears to be no effect of DMEA on the corrosion potential and the impedance of the steel in the process of realkalization. That was, the performance was the same as that in the sodium carbonate solution except corrosion current of rebar with DMEA which showed much lower. But of the samples which the DMEA existed in the electrolyte was significantly shorter at the same relaxation time after realkalization. At the same relaxation time the corrosion potential was more positive and the corrosion current density was smaller. It improved significantly the effect of realkalization.

Compound silane films were prepared on galvanized steel by immersing method using mixture of bis-[3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl]tetrasulfide and γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane. The corrosion resistance of galvanized steel substrates was compared after treatment with bis-[3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl]tetrasulfide, γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and their mixture in 3.5%NaCl solution by potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The results indicated that corrosion current density of the mixed silane films was reduced evidently and self-corrosion pressure of that was shifted to left markedly and total impedance value of that increased about two orders of magnitude. The analytical characterisation was performed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy. The results showed that bis-[3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl]tetrasulfide and γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane were all connected with the former of films.

Electrochemical methods were employed to investigate galvanic corrosion behaviors of super13Cr and P110 couples in NaCl solution at different temperature. Corrosion morphologies and products of the couples were analyzed by SEM, EDS and XRD. The results showed that there were potential difference distinctly between super 13Cr and P110 steel in NaCl solution at different temperature, when its contacted, galvanic corrosion of super 13Cr-P110 steel couples will occurred. P110 was accelerated to corrode as anode and super 13Cr was protected as cathode in the coupling. Super 13Cr-P110 steel couples could not be used as P110 without any protection in NaCl solution at 20 °C to 80 °C. Corrosion current density and galvanic corrosion of super13Cr-P110 steel couples increased with increasing temperature in NaCl solution, of which corrosion products are Fe3O4.
