Development and use of blended cement concrete is gaining more importance in the construction industry with reference to durability mainly due to the pore refinement and reduction in permeability. Cracks play a major role on important parameters like permeability, rate of chloride ingress, compressive strength and thus affect the reinforcement corrosion protection. Furthermore, when a crack occurs in the cover concrete, the corrosion of the steel reinforcement may be accelerated because the deterioration causing factors can pass through the crack. In recent years the effect of cracking on the penetration of concrete has been the subject of numerous investigations. Therefore assessing the service life using blended concrete becomes obviously in considering the durability. In the present study, the corrosion assessment of composite concrete beams with and without crack with of 0.3mm using OPC, 30% PFA, 60% GGBS, 10% SF was performed using half cell potential measurement, galvanic potential measurement, mass loss of steel over a period of 60days under marine environmental conditions and the results were discussed in detail.

In this study, the high strength and superior toughness spring steels as the suspension material, used for automobile and railroad industries were utilized to carry out the following investigations. Corrosion times were controlled in 7, 14, 30 and 60days to examine the relation between corrosion pit and compressive residual stress in the static corrosion environment after shot peened. And then corrosion current and corrosion potential were measured for every 24 hours to investigate the corrosion mechanism. Shot peened material shows the low or rate of corrosion current as compared with unpeened material. In case of peened material which has the highest residual stress, it has a low corrosion current density.

Thermal spraying onto the metal substrate has been widely used as a technique of the surface treatment in the various industrial field. A wide range of thermal spray technologies exist and all rely on the fundamental process of fusing a metal feedstock, atomizing it and transporting it to the surface of a substrate. Specially, these methods have been taken into account as the protection method against the corrosion. In this study, the polarization characteristics were carried out on the thermal sprayed coating layer immersed in various pH of diluted aqueous solutions at $25^{\circ}C$. Aluminum, Zinc, Ni-base alloy, alumina and polyethylene powder were used with sprayed coating materials. From the polarization curves, the electrochemical corrosion potential($E_{corr}$) and the corrosion current density($I_{corr}$) were investigated.

Shot peening is an effective method of improving the fatigue strength of components and structures. The compressive residual stress produced by surface plastic deformation with shot peening is usually regarded as the major factor in increasing fatigue strength. In this study, the influence of shot peening on corrosion was investigated. Spring steel immersed in $3.5\%$ NaCl prior was used to evaluate the effect of shot peening on fatigue properties. The immersion test was performed on the five kinds of specimens with shot peened and unpeened. The distributions of residual stresses of shot peened spring steels were measured in an X-ray diffraction apparatus, using the two-point method. Corrosion potential, polarization curve, residual stress, etc. were investigated, based on the experimental results. From test results, the effect of shot peening on the corrosion was evaluated.

Additively manufactured (AM) Ti-6Al-4V alloys exhibit a dominant acicular martensite phase (α'), which is characterized by an unstable energy state and highly localized corrosion susceptibility. Electrochemical critical localized corrosion temperature (E-CLCT, ISO 22910: 2020) and electrochemical critical localized corrosion potential (E-CLCP, ISO AWI 4631: 2021) were measured to analyze the localized corrosion resistance of the AM Ti-6Al-4V alloy. Although E-CLCP was measured under mild corrosive conditions such as human body, the validity of evaluating localized corrosion resistance of AM titanium alloys was demonstrated by comparison with E-CLCT. However, the mechanisms of resistance to localized corrosion on the as-received and heat-treated AM Ti-6Al-4V alloys under E-CLCT and E-CLCP differ at various temperatures because of differences in properties under localized corrosion and repassivation. The E-CLCT is mainly measured for initiation of localized corrosion on the AM titanium alloys based on temperature, whereas the E-CLCP yields repassivation potential of re-generated passive films of AM titanium alloys after breaking down.

This paper was studied on the effect of temperature on corrosion of absorption refrigeration systems using $LiBr-H_2O$ working fluids. In the fresh water and 62 % lithium bromide solution at $70^{\circ}C$, polarization test of SS 400, Cu(C1220T-OL) and Al-Ni bronze was carried out. And polarization behavior, polarization resistance characteristics, corrosion rate(mmpy) and corrosion sensitivity of materials forming absorption refrigeration systems was considered. The main results are as following: (1) As the experimental temperature increase, the change of corrosion rate of Al-Ni bronze become duller than SS 400 and Cu in 62% lithium bromide solution. (2) According as corrosion environment is changed from fresh water to 62% lithium bromide solution, potential change of Cu and Al-Ni bronze become less noble than SS 400. (3) The corrosion sensitivity of Al-Ni bronze was duller than that of Cu and SS 400 in 62% LiBr solution.

Processible polyaniline (PAM) dispersions consisting of polyaniline micro-particles, cyclohexanone, and a polymeric surfactant were prepared in a micro-milling machine with various mixing conditions. The electrochemical properties of the dispersion film coated on Pt electrode were investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV). The electrochemistry of the PAM dispersion coatings was basically similar to a pure PAM coating based on the results of CV. The results of polarization measurements and open circuit potential measurements carried out in $3\;wt.\%$ NaCI solution showed increase in corrosion potential when the PANI dispersion coatings applied on steel surface. Variation of open circuit potential $(OCP,\;V_{OC})$ of the dispersion coating/steel electrodes was observed, which differed with milling conditions. The results demonstrated practical use of the conducting polymer dispersion as a coating material for corrosion prevention of steel.

This paper was studied on corrosion characteristics of gas absorption refrigeration & hot water system using $LiBr-H_2O$ working fluids. In the $62\%$ lithium bromide solution at $60^{\circ}C$, polarization test of Cu, $10\%$ cupronickel($90-10\%$ Cu-Ni) and $30\%$ cupronickel($70-30\%$ Cu-Ni) tube was carried out. And polarization behavior, polarization resistance characteristics, open circuit potential, anodic polarization of heat exchanger tube for gas absorption refrigeration & hot water system were considered. The main results are as following: 1) Polarization resistance of heat exchange tubes appears high in order of $30\%$ cupronickel tube > $10\%$ cupronickel tube > Cu tube. B) Open circuit potential of cupronickel tube is more noble than that of Cu tube, and corrosion current density of cupronickel is controlled than Cu tube. 3) Potential of passive region of $30\%$ cupronickel tube is more wide than that of $10\%$ cupronickel tube, and the passivation critical current of $30\%$ cupronickel tube is lower than that of $10\%$ cupronickel tube.
