콘크리트 벽체 구조물에 매입된 철근의 정량적인 부식률을 측정하기 위하여 자연전위 측정법과 적외선 열화상법을 이용하였다. 벽체 실험체는 부식률(0, 1, 3, 5, 7%)과 피복 두께(30 mm, 40 mm), 그리고 철근 배근 간격에 변수를 주어 콘크리트 표면에서 저항 및 전류를 측정하고 온도를 측정하였으며, 콘크리트 표면 상태에서 얻은 결과를 분석하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 전류밀도 분포는 부식률이 증가할수록 그값이 증가하였으며 피복 두께가 클수록 분포도가 넓게 나타났다. 적외선 촬영으로 얻어진 열화상 정보는 서로 다른 부식률과 피복 두께에서는 현저한 차이를 보였으며 주변 온도 및 철근 배근 간격에 대해서는 그 영향이 미비하게 나타났다. 제시된 부식 모델을 통해서 콘크리트 표면의 전류나 온도를 측정하여 내부에 매입되어 있는 철근의 부식률을 정량적으로 측정할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

Concern about green water problem has surfaced as a serious issue in Korea. In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to research inhibition of green water and corrosion control of copper pipe in water service. This paper discovered that moderate corrosion inhibitors can solve the green water problem and copper corrosion in water service by adding the optimal concentration of corrosion inhibitors based on regulation. Firstly, in the case of phosphate based corrosion inhibitors, as dosage of the corrosion inhibitor increases from 1 mg/L to 5 mg/L, the relative effect of corrosion inhibitor declines rapidly. Secondly, except for 1 mg/L dosage of silicate based inhibitor, relative effects of the inhibitor displays a positive number depending on inhibitor concentration. The most significant result is that the amount of copper release shows a downward trend, whereas the phosphate based inhibitor accelerates copper ion release as the inhibitor dosage increases. Thirdly, as the dosage of mixed inhibitors increases to 10 mg/L, the copper release change shows a similar trend of phosphate based inhibitor. Lastly, according to the Langelier saturation index (LI), silicate based inhibitors have the most non corrosive value. Larson ratio (LR) indicates that phosphate based inhibitors are the least corrosive. Korea water index (KWI) represents that silicate based inhibitors are most effective in controlling copper pipe corrosion.

A reliable and cost-effective technique for the development of corrosion damage model is introduced to predict nonlinear time-dependent corrosion wastage of steel structures. A detailed explanation on how to propose a generalised mathematical formulation of the corrosion model is investigated in this paper (Part I), and verification and application of the developed method are covered in the following paper (Part II) by adopting corrosion data of a ship's ballast tank structure. In this study, probabilistic approaches including statistical analysis were applied to select the best fit probability density function (PDF) for the measured corrosion data. The sub-parameters of selected PDF, e.g., the largest extreme value distribution consisting of scale, and shape parameters, can be formulated as a function of time using curve fitting method. The proposed technique to formulate the refined time-dependent corrosion wastage model (TDCWM) will be useful for engineers as it provides an easy and accurate prediction of the 1) starting time of corrosion, 2) remaining life of the structure, and 3) nonlinear corrosion damage amount over time. In addition, the obtained outcome can be utilised for the development of simplified engineering software shown in Appendix B.

환경 보호까지 고려한 Non-amine계 부식 방지제를 포함하는 새로운 부동액 개발이 주요한 이슈가 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Non-amine계 부식 방지제 4종을 합성하고 이를 이용하여 새로운 자동차용 부동액 5종을 제조하여 무게 변화량, 표면 관찰, 거칠기 측정, 용액 중 구리 용출량 측정을 통해 구리의 부식 속도를 평가하였다. 평가 결과 부동액 5종중에서 Sample 4가 유도결합 플라즈마 광도계로 측정하였을 때 구리의 용출량이 적고 용출 속도가 매우 느렸다. Sample 4는 시험 후 금속 표면이 매끄러운 편이나 표면에 작은 국부 부식이 관찰됨에 따라 표면에 부식 생성물 층을 고르게 형성한 것으로 보여 구리의 부동태화에 따른 부식 억제 효과가 있으므로 가장 양호한 부식방지 성능을 보였다. Sample 4에 첨가된 주요 부식방지제는 1-Aminomethyl(N',N'-di(2-hydroxyethyl) benzotrazole로, 이 부식 억제 성분은 국부부식은 상대적으로 높으나 부동태화가 진행된 Sample 5에도 일정 함량 포함되었다. 따라서 본 연구에서 사용한 4종의 부식 방지제 중 1-Aminomethyl(N',N'-di(2-hydroxyethyl)benzotrazole이 가장 부식 억제 효과가 높았다. 이는 상기의 부식 방지제가 부동액상에서 구리의 부동태화를 촉진함으로써 부식을 방지하는 것으로 판단된다.

철근 콘크리트 구조물은 부식이 증가함에 따라 부식생성물로 인한 균열이 발생하고 하중저항 능력이 감소한다. 본 연구에서는 140시간 동안 촉진염해시험(ICM)을 적용하여 부식을 유도하였으며 부식 전후의 초음파속도 변화, 휨파괴 하중, 부식생성물량을 평가하였다. 피복두께를 3수준(20 mm, 30 mm. 40 mm)으로 고려하였는데, 피복두께가 증가할수록 균열발생시기 및 부식생성량이 증가하였다. 또한 초음파 속도는 피복두께의 감소 및 부식생성량의 증가에 따라 뚜렷한 선형관계를 가지고 감소하였다. 휨파괴 하중의 경우 부식에 따라 10 % 이상 휨하중이 감소하였으나, 명확한 상관성을 도출할 수 없었는데, 이는 부식률이 작으므로 철근단면적의 감소 영향보다 슬립에 의한 영향이 크기 때문이다. 피복두께가 증가함에 따라 부식생성량 및 초음파 속도는 뚜렷한 선형관계를 가지고 변화하였으며, 부식으로 인한 균열발생 시간은 평가된 전류의 기울기를 분석하여 추측할 수 있었다.

Steel corrosion in concrete is aggravated with the increase of chloride content in concrete. So, there are regulations in the total amount of chloride ions in concrete in Korea and Japan. The purpose of this paper is to propose a resonable method to regulate the amount of chlorides in concrete. In this study, the experimental results showed that it is rather reasonable to regulate the amount of chloride ions in cement than the total amount of the chloride ions in concrete.

The deterioration caused by chloride penetration and carbonation plays a significant role in a concrete structure in a marine environment. The chloride corrosion in some marine concrete structures is invisible but can be dangerous in a sudden collapse. Therefore, as a novelty, this research investigates the ability of a non-destructive damage detection method named the Power Spectral Density (PSD) to diagnose damages caused only by chloride ions in concrete structures. Furthermore, the accuracy of this method in estimating the amount of annual damage caused by chloride in various parts and positions exposed to seawater was investigated. For this purpose, the RC Arosa bridge in Spain, which connects the island to the mainland via seawater, was numerically modeled and analyzed. As the first step, each element's bridge position was calculated, along with the chloride corrosion percentage in the reinforcements. The next step predicted the existence, location, and timing of damage to the entire concrete part of the bridge based on the amount of rebar corrosion each year. The PSD method was used to monitor the annual loss of reinforcement cross-section area, changes in dynamic characteristics such as stiffness and mass, and each year of the bridge structure's life using sensitivity equations and the linear least squares algorithm. This study showed that using different approaches to the PSD method based on rebar chloride corrosion and assuming 10% errors in software analysis can help predict the location and almost exact amount of damage zones over time.

Pipes and components of the secondary system in the pressurized water reactor (PWR) are mainly comprised of manufactured carbon steel. Thus, the generated carbon steel corrosion products are transported into the steam generator and deposited, thereby deteriorating the integrity of the steam generator. Environmental condition in the secondary system of the PWRs differs across different locations. So, the corrosion rate and types of corrosion products depend on specific locations in the secondary system. In this study, the quantity and chemical compositions of corrosion products generated in various locations that vary in different temperatures and chemistry conditions were investigated. As a result of evaluating the PWR "Unit A" that is in current operation, the amount of corrosion products generated in the section of high temperature feedwater system was identified as the largest source in the secondary system. Major components of corrosion products were iron oxides such as magnetite, hematite, and lepidocrocite.

The study was carried out to evaluate material characteristics and environmental effects of anti-corrosion inhibitor which is known to be very easy to use, since the admixture is added during concrete mixing. Specimens were fabricate with 6 different dosages of anti-corrosion inhibitor and cured in the autoclave chamber with different number of cycles. As a result of measuring corrosion of reinforcing bars embedded in concrete, it was found that even small amount of admixture application can prevent reinforcing bars from corrosion and the efficiency is gradually decreased with increase of the number of autoclave cycles and of percentage of chloride content. In addition, the admixture will not affect material characteristics such as compressive strength and air content.

Austenitic stainless steels with addition of various amounts of Mo and W were evaluated in terms of corrosion and contact resistance to determine optimum alloy composition of metallic bipolar plate for PEMFC. The corrosion property was evaluated by both acid fume exposure test at $130^{\circ}C$ and by electrochemical polarization tests in $H_3PO_4$ solution at $80^{\circ}C$. Austenitic stainless steel with proper amount of Mo and W demonstrated not only good corrosion resistance but also low contact resistance. Analyses on the passive film show that partial substitution of Mo by W enhances passive film stability and repassivation property. Test results suggest that austenitic stainless steel with 2 wt%Mo and 4 wt%W has optimum composition for metallic bipolar plate used in PEMFC.
