An automated corrosion monitor, named the Internet of Things atmospheric corrosion monitor (IoT ACM) has been developed. IoT ACM is based on electrical resistance sensor and enables accurate and continuous measurement of corrosion data of metallic materials. The objective of this research is to study the characteristics of atmospheric corrosion by analyzing the acquired corrosion data from IoT ACM. Employing data processing and data analysis methods to research the acquired corrosion data of steel, the atmospheric corrosion characteristics implied in the corrosion data can be discovered. Comparing the experiment results with the phenomenon of previous laboratory experiment and conclusions of previously published reports, the research results are tested and verified. The experiment results show that the change regulation of atmospheric corrosion data in the actual environment is reasonable and normal. The variation of corrosion depth is obviously influenced by relative humidity, temperature and part of air pollutants. It can be concluded that IoT ACM can be well applied to the conditions of atmospheric corrosion monitoring of metallic materials and the study of atmospheric corrosion by applying IoT ACM is effective and instructive under an actual atmospheric environment.

An ACM (Atmospheric Corrosion Monitor) type corrosion sensor, consisting of a Fe-Ag galvanic couple was developed and applied for the evaluation of corrosivity of atmospheric environments. The sensor was designed considering mass-production and good reproducibility of results, making it convenient for long-term corrosion data acquisition. Besides the sensor output, I, temperature, relative humidity (RH) were also recorded by a microcomputer. By analyzing the magnitude and time variation of I, the occurrence and duration of rain, dew and dry periods, Train, Tdew and Tdry, respectively, could be distinguished and determined. And by referencing to the empirical I-RH calibrating curve, the amount of deposited sea salt, Ws, could also be estimated. It was also found that the corrosion loss could be estimated in both indoor and outdoor sites by analyzing sensor output. Corrosivities of some kinds of exposure sites, not only outdoor environments but also indoor environments, were evaluated by using the ACM sensor.

Purpose This paper aims to discover the mathematical model for Q235 carbon steel corrosion date acquired in the initial stage of atmospheric corrosion using electrical resistance probe. Design/methodology/approach In this paper, mathematical approaches are used to construct a classification model for atmospheric environmental elements and material corrosion rates. Findings Results of the experiment show that the corrosion data can be converted into corrosion depth for calculating corrosion rate to obtain corrosion kinetics model and conform corrosion acceleration phase. Combined with corresponding atmospheric environmental elements, a real time grade subdivision model for corrosion rate can be constructed. Originality/value These mathematical models constructed by real time corrosion data can be well used to research the characteristics about initial atmospheric corrosion of Q235 carbon steel.

The purpose of this research is to propose a method for evaluating the time-dependent corrosion behavior of carbon steel plates using an atmospheric corrosion monitor (ACM) corrosion sensor consisting of a Fe/Ag-galvanic couple. Atmospheric exposure tests were carried out on steel plates for periods of 6, 12, and 24-months on the island of Okinawa in Japan. The Specimens were mounted on racks at angles of 0, 45 and 90 to the horizontal to obtain corrosion data in various corrosive environments. In addition, the environments of the skyward- and groundward-facing surfaces of the specimens were monitored using ACM sensors. The sensor outputs were recorded during the exposure tests.

Atmospheric corrosion test of TRIP steels was conducted in laboratory. The surface morphologies of the specimens were analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electro-probe microanalysis (EPMA). Corrosion performance of TRIP steels under atmospheric environment was investigated by discussing the protective mechanism. The corrosion rates of steel A are significantly greater than steel B in atmospheric environment tests. The enhancement of corrosion performance of TRIP steel is attributed to the additions of alloying elements, such as P, Cr, Cu, and Ni etc.. The alloying elements increase the compactness and densification of rust layers. Electrochemical characteristic of TRIP steel is improved by means of the enhancement of the thermodynamic stability.
