Cathodic protection is widely recognized as the most cost effective and technically appropriate corrosion prevention methodology for the port, offshore structures, ships. When applying the cathodic protection method to metal facilities in seawater, on the surface of the metal facilities a compound of calcium carbonate($CaCO_3$) or magnesium hydroxide($Mg(OH)_2$) films are formed by $Ca^{2+}$ and $Mg^{2+}$ ions among the many ionic components dissolving in the seawater. And calcareous deposit films such as $CaCO_3$ and $Mg(OH)_2$ etc. are formed by the surface of the steel product. These calcareous deposit film functions as a barrier against the corrosive environment, leading to a decrease in current demand. On the other hand, the general calcareous deposit film is a compound like ceramics. Therefore, there may be some problems such as weaker adhesive power and the longer time of film formation uniting with the base metal. In this study, we tried to determine and control the optimal condition through applying the principle of cathodic current process to form calcareous deposit film of uniform and compact on steel plate. The quantity of precipitates was analyzed, and both the morphology, component and crystal structure were analyzed as well through SEM, EDS and XRD. And based on the previous analysis, it was elucidated mechanism of calcareous deposit film formed in the sacrificial anode type (Al, Zn) and current density (1, 3, $5A/m^2$) conditions. In addition, the taping test was performed to evaluate the adhesion.

Marine ships have played an important role as a carrier, transporting much more than 80% of all international trading, and marine transportation is an internationally competitive, strategic, and great national important industry. However, those marine ships have the characteristics such as voyage of long distance, large-volume and lower speed than the other carry system. Therefore, it is important to manufacture a larger and faster ship, however, the steel plates which are consisted with most of those ships has brought about many corrosion problems in sea water such as general corrosion, localized corrosion, cavitation and erosion corrosion etc.. Most hulls of the ships have been protected with paintings, sacrificial anode, marine growth prevention system, and impressed current cathodic protection methods against numerious corrosion problems mentioned above. However, these conventional methods are not very effective because the rudder of ships stern are exposed to very severe corrosive environment such as tides, speeds of ships, cavitations and erosion corrosion, etc.. In this study, electrochemical and cavitation characteristics was investigated for the rudder material of ship which is exposed to serious corrosive environment. As a result, it is considered that the optimum cathodic protection potentials of rudder material is the range of -0.6 V ~ -0.8 V(Ag/AgCl) in static seawater.

Stainless steel has been stably used closed by passivity oxidation films(Cr₂O₃) is made by neutral atmospheric environment. However, passivity oxidaton films of the surface of stainless steel occasionally comes to be destroyed in seawater which is influenced by an environment having galogen ion like Cl‾, then, localization corrosion comes to occur Stainless steel 304 for shaft system material of the small-size FRP fishing boat on seawater environments made an experiment on simulation of sacrifical anode(Al, Zn). Through these experiment and study, following results have been obtained ; According to the field inspection and corrosion simulation, the corrosion on the 2nd class stainless steel shaft(STS304) in FRP fishing boat has been verified to occur by crevice corrosion and galvanic corrosion etc., According to the comparison and analysis of Stainless steel 304 was severely corroded, but, protected shaft specimen was not totallay corroded. This result is assumed to be made by the facts that anodic reaction, Fe → fe²+＋ 2e¯, has been restricted by the cathodic protection current of sacrificial anode material.

A lot of parts in FGD (Flue Gas Desulphurization) systems of fossil-fuel power plants show the environments in which are highly changeable and extremely acidic corrosive medium according to time and locations, e.g. in duct works, coolers and re-heaters etc.. These conditions are formed when system materials are immersed in fluid that flows on them or when exhausted gas is condensed into thin layered medium to contact materials of the system walls and roofs. The environments make troublesome corrosion and air pollution problems that are occurred from the leakage of the condensed solution. The frequent shut-down and repairing works of FGD systems also demand costs and low efficiencies of those facilities. In general, high corrosion resistant materials have been used to solve this problem. However, even the super alloys and Teflon linings sometimes have not been good enough to preventing corrosion. Further more, they are expensive and not easily repairable in short periods of operation stops. In this work, new technology that is effective, economical and easily repairable has proposed to solve the corrosion problems in FGD facilities. This technology contains cathodic protection, coatings and remote monitoring-controlling systems.

The effect of Post Weld Heat Treatment(PWHT) of RE36 steel for marine structure was investigated with parameters such as micro-vickers hardness, corrosion potential and corrosion current density of weld metal(WM), base metal(BM) and heat affected zone(HAZ), and both Al alloy anode generating current and Al alloy anode weight loss quantity etc. Hardness of post-weld heat treated BM, WM and HAZ is lower than that of As-welded condition of each region. However, hardness of HAZ was the highest among those three parts regardless of PWHT temperature and corrosion potential of WM was the highest among those three parts without regard to temperature and corrosion potential of WM was the highest among those three parts without regard to PWHT temperature. The amplitude of corrosion potential difference of each other three parts at PWHT temperature $550^{\circ}C$, $650^{\circ}C$ are smaller than that of three parts by As-welded condition and corrosion current density obtained by PWHT was also smaller than that of As-welded condition. Eventually, it was known that corrosion resistance was increased by PWHT. However both Al anode generating current and anode weight loss quantity were also decreased by PWHT compare to As-welded condition when RE36 steel is cathodically protected by Al anode. Therefore, it is suggested that the optimum PWHT temperature with increasing corrosion resistance and cathodic protection effect is $550^{\circ}C$.

1812년 영국의 Humphrey Davy에 의해서 정립되기 시작한 음극방식(Cathodic P Protection)기술은 1900년대 중반이후의 유럽과 미국의 비약적인 발전을 거쳐 이제 세계적으로 철강의 방식법중 빼놓을 수 없는 주요한 기술이 되었다. 1970년대초부터 우리나라에 채용되기 시작한 음극방식기술은 현재 항만, 지중, 열교환기, 화학플랜트 등 다양한 분야에 적용되고 있다. 아직 국내의 아쉬운 점이라면 기술도입 이후 신기술의 개발노력이 거의 이루어 지지 못하고, 해외에서 개발된 새로운 장치나 신기술들을 산발적으로 수입/적용해 왔다는 것이다. 이제 우리나라도 산업의 분야에 따라서는 상당한 방식시설을 보유 하고 있음에도 아직도 국내의 환경에 적합한 음극방식기술의 개발과 심도있는 연구 및 기술축적이 부족한 형편이다. 그 원인으로는 광범위하게 발전해 가는 해외기술 에 대한 정보부족을 먼저 꼽을 수 있으며 국내의 기술 및 연구개발에 투자가 미약 하다는 것이 또하나의 이유라 하겠다. 본 강의는 상기 원인중 음극방식에 대한 해외기술정보를 소개하기 위한 것으로 해외에서 최근에 개발된 음극방식관련 각종 장치를 소개하고 전반적인 산업분야의 음극방식법 응용연구의 방향을 발표하며, 부가하여 읍국방식관련 각종 규정의 소개를 하고자 한다. 제한된 정보로 방식산업에 직접 관계하는 분에게는 부족한 기술 정보가 될지 모르나 전반적인 음극방식기술에 대한 실태를 파악하는데는 조그마한 도움이 될 수 있을 것이다.

The national need to establish a new stray current mitigation method to protect the underground metallic infrastructures in congested downtown area forced us to design and develop the distributed impressed current cathodic protection (DICCP) system. The main purpose of this system is to replace the stray current drainage bond methods, which is widely adopted by pipeline owners in Korea. Currently, forced drainage makes up about 85% of total drainage facilities installed in Korea because polarized drainage can neither drain perfectly the stray currents during normal operation of electric vehicle nor drain the reverse current during regenerative braking at all. The forced drainage, however, has been abused as an alternative cathodic protection system, which impresses currents from rails to the pipelines and accordingly uses the rails as anodes. As a result, it is necessary to consider a new method to both cathodically protect the pipelines and effectively drain the stray currents. In this paper, we describe the design parameters and installation schemes of DICCP system that can meet these demands.

This study investigated the erosion-corrosion characteristics of 5038-H321 aluminum alloy in a natural seawater solution through various electrochemical experiments and flow rate parameters. Cathodic polarization experiments were conducted at flow rates ranging from 4 to 12 knots. Considering the concentration polarization section representing a relatively low current density, the range of the potentiostatic experiment was determined to be -1.6 to -1.0 V. The potentiostatic experiment was conducted at various potentials for 180 minutes in seawater. After the experiment, the corrosion characteristics were evaluated by observing surface morphology and measuring surface roughness. As a result, as the applied potential was lower, the amount of calcareous deposits increased and the roughness tended to increase. On the other hand, it was confirmed that the roughness was larger in the static condition than the flow rate condition due to the influence of the flow velocity. Variations in the chemical composition with flow rate variations were analyzed by energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). In conclusion, the cathodic potential of AA5083-H321 in seawater was determined to be -1.0 V.

해상교량은 바다에 노출되기 때문에 많은 경우 본래의 설계수명을 다하지 못하고 조기에 열화된다. 이러한 콘크리트 열화는 다공성인 콘크리트 내부에 염분이 침투함으로써 철근부식을 야기하고, 부식된 철근은 보통 $6{\sim}10$배까지 부피가 팽창하면서 콘크리트에 균열을 일으키고 결국 탈락(박리)으로 이어진다. 이와 같은 철근부식과 균열발생의 가속화는 구조물의 심각한 손상과 궁극적으로 붕괴까지 이어질 수 있다. 따라서 이러한 피해를 막기 위해서는 콘크리트 내 철근부식의 정확한 이해가 필요하며, 부식발생의 정량화에 의한 예측은 물론 적절한 방식법을 적용해야한다. 음극방식법은 비교적 최근에 개발된 철근콘크리트 구조물의 방식법 중 하나이며 요즈음도 해외 여러 나라에서 이에 대한 방식시스템 연구가 활발하다. 본 연구에서는 해상교량이나 항만부두 구조물의 상판부에 대한 예비실험 성격으로 슬랩 시험편(40cm ${\ast}$ 30cm ${\ast}$ 18cm)을 채택하였다. 시험환경은 15% 염분과 온도 $40^{\circ}C$의 가속화된 해양환경이었으며, 시험 기간 동안 주기적인 건습 반복을 실시하였다. 방식시험편은 음극방식 기술의 하나인 Zn-mesh에 의한 희생양극식을 채택하였다. 연구내용으로는 음극방식에 의한 방식성능을 관찰하였으며 신설구조물과 보수구조물에 대한 방식 효과를 비교하였다.
