The corrosion of copper in $H_2$$SO_4$ $-H_2$$O_2$ etching solutions with amines was investigated at various flow rates (v). Amine additives give a retardation of $H_2$$O_2$ decompositions, increases in both corrosion rates and etch factor, and a protection of etched copper surfaces. However n-alkylamine additives acted as corrosion inhibitors at v < 10cm/s, those acted as corrosion accelerators at v of 10-220cm/s. The maximum corrosion rate was obtained with about 0.1 molal concentration of additives. Steric effects of substituted groups suppressed the acceleration of copper corrosion. The increases in both corrosion rates and flow rates gave the increase in etch factor. Corrosion rates with n-alkylamine increased in the order of ethylamine < n-propylamine < n-butylamine, those with butylamine isomers tert- < sec- < iso- < n-butylamine, and those with amine additives of different number of substituted groups tri- < di- < mono-n-propylamine, respectively.

The structure such as building and cultural properties was composed of various materials like wood, metal and stone that have been utilized and exposed to air, wind and rain far a long time. However, because of their special characteristics as structure, collecting of samples that may involve their destruction cannot be permitted, ever for material analysis. Therefore, h order to study the Influence of atmospheric pollution on structure, atmospheric corrosion tests were achieved by making use of materials(bronze. ancient copper, copper, steel and marble) in field exposure tests. Atmospheric exposure sites are selected from places which are characterized by urban, rural, Industrial and marine enoronments In Northeast Asia. According to the results of atmospheric corrosion tests: The corrosion rates of Industrial states In china were more serious than other sampling sites. In the correlation of meteorological factors. wet hours was defiled as Intogeacted hours under that atmospheric temperature is above $0^{\circ}C$ and relative humidity in above 80% that has a great influence on corrosion tests of materials in case of a short time. The relative humidity was above about 75% that resulted in great increase of corrosion rates. In the esimation of corrosion rates between materials, corrosion rates of steel was about thirty times and decuple larger than that of other materials excluding marble in unshelterd exposure and In sheltered exposure.

An on-line corrosion rate measurement system was developed using a personal computer, a data acquisition board and program, and a 2-electrode corrosion probe. Reliability of the developed system was confirmed with through comparison test. With this system, the effect of sodium nitrite ($NaNO_2$) as a corrosion inhibitor were studied on iron and aluminum brass that were immersed in sodium chloride (NaCl) solution. Corrosion rate was measured based on the linear polarization resistance method. The corrosion rates of aluminum brass and iron in 1% NaCl solutions were measured to be 0.290 mm per year (mmpy) and 0.2134 mmpy, respectively. With the addition of 200 ppm of $NO{_2}^-$, the corrosion rates decreased to 0.0470 mmpy and 0.0254 mmpy. The addition of $NO{_2}^-$ caused a decrease in corrosion rates of both aluminum brass and iron, yet the $NO{_2}^-$ acted as a more effective corrosion inhibitor for iron. than aluminum brass.

Erosion-corrosion behaviors of Hadfield steel under a neutral aqueous environment with fine SiO₂ particles were examined and compared with those of conventional carbon steel. A range of electrochemical experiments (potentiodynamic polarization, linear polarization, and impedance), immersion test, and slurry pot test (i.e., erosion-corrosion test) were performed. Results showed that the Hadfield steel composed of austenitic matrix with (Fe,Mn)-based carbide had lower corrosion potential and higher corrosion current density than carbon steel with a typical ferrite/pearlite structure. In addition, pipe forming increased total corrosion rates (i.e., pure corrosion and erosion-enhanced corrosion rates). Nevertheless, the erosion-corrosion rate of Hadfield steel was much smaller. Morphological observation showed that local damage in the form of a crater by erosion-corrosion was more noticeable in carbon steel. The higher resistance of Hadfield steel to erosion-corrosion was attributed to its lower total erosion rates (i.e., pure erosion and corrosion-enhanced erosion rates) highly depending on surface hardness. This study suggests that Hadfield steel with higher resistances to flowing erosion-corrosion in an aqueous environment can be applied widely to various industrial fields.

상수도관의 부식은 수돗물이 공급되는 과정에서 관 표면의 금속과 물 사이의 일련의 복잡한 산화/환원 반응이다. 부식으로 인해 발생할 수 있는 1차적인 고려사항은 철, 납, 동과 같은 독성이 있는 중금속이 물속에 존재할 수 있다는 것이며, 이는 상수도관에 악영향을 미치며, 세탁물을 훼손하거나 맛을 낼 수 있는 심미적인 문제도 발생된다. 본 연구에서는 부식억제제가 상수도관의 부식도, 수돗물 중의 철 및 동의 용출 농도에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지에 대해서 평가하였다. 부식저감 효과는 인산염계 부식억제제와 큰 관련성이 있었다. 부식반응은 물과 관의 표면에서 이루어지는 일련의 전기화학적인 반응임을 고려하면 철의 용출농도와 부식도는 양(+)의 상관관계에 있다.

Five slab specimens with predefined cracks are examined to evaluate the corrosion behavior of epoxy-coated bars in chloride contaminated concrete, using linear polarization method. The test specimens were subjected to alternating weekly cycles of ponding in a salt solution and drying for 48 weeks. Test results show that the current density of the specimen of normal steel bars becomes 0.715 ${\mu}A/cm^2$ indicating that the steel bars are in moderate or high corrosion condition. However, the corrosion rates of the specimens with damaged epoxy-coated bars are significantly below 0.1 ${\mu}A/cm^2$ and the bars appears to be in passive condition. The damaged epoxy-coated bars with a corrosion inhibitor of calcium nitrite showed a corrosion rate of 0.110 ${\mu}m/year$ or 56 percents of the corrosion rate of damaged epoxy-coated specimen without such an inhibitor, 0.195 ${\mu}m/year$. However, the corrosion rates of specimens containing the other two corrosion inhibitors, a combination of amines and esters or mixtures of organic alkenyl dicarboxyl acid salts are quite equivalent to the control specimen. The research technique of linear polarization resistance method has proven itself to be useful in measuring corrosion rates of reinforcement in concrete.

The material exposure tests have been carried out since 1993 to evaluate the relationship between air pollution and material corrosion with the cooperation of the researchers in Japan, China, and Korea. The test pieces such as bronze, copper, marble, and carbon steel have been exposed under both unsheltered and rain-sheltered outdoor condition separately at 18 sampling sites in East Asia. At the same time, the concentration of SO$_2$ and NO$_2$ has been measured simultaneously with passive sampler. The meteorological data were collected from the AWS (Auto-mated weather station) In each country and chemical compositions of wet deposition were also analyzed by the bulk sampling of rainfall every month. As the results, it was found that the corrosion rates of test pieces in the ambient air were appeared to be in the order of carbon steel > marble > bronze copper. The corrosion rates of test pieces in the unsheltered outdoor condition were 2.34 to 5.88 times larger than those in rain-sheltered condition. It was also found that the corrosion rate in the heavy polluted area in China was the highest, and the corrosion rates of the metal pieces were generally proportional to SO$_2$ concentration. Between two sites in Korea, the test pieces at Daegu site showed higher corrosion rates that would be due to the higher SO$_2$ concentration.

We have investigated the differences between the general corrosion and microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) of steels in terms of electrochemical behavior and surface phenomena. Corrosion potential of steels in the absence of SRB (sulfate-reducing bacteria) shifted to a low level and was maintained throughout the experimental period (40 days). The potential in the presence of SRB, however, shifted to a noble level after 20 days' incubation, indicating the growth of SRB biofilms on the test metal specimens and a formation of corrosion products. In addition, the color of medium inoculated with SRB changed from gray to black. The color change appeared to be caused by the formation of pyrites (FeS) as a corrosion product while no significant color change was observed in the medium without SRB inoculation. Moreover, corrosion rates of various steels tested for MIC were higher than those in the absence of SRB. This is probably because SRB were associated with the increasing corrosion rates through increasing cathodic reactions which caused reduction of sulfate to sulfide as well as formation of an oxygen concentration cell. The pitting corrosions were also observed in the SRB-inoculated medium.

The corrosion behavior of metal covered with mortar under a wet-dry cyclic condition were investigated to apply for the measurement of corrosion rates of reinforcing steel in concrete structure. The carbon steel in mortar having t=3 mm cover thickness was exposed to the alternate condition of 6 h immersion in chloride containing solution and 18 h drying at $25^{\circ}C$ and 50%RH. The electrochemical phenomena of a carbon steel and mortar interface was explained by an equivalent circuit consisting of a solution resistance, a charge transfer resistance and a CPE(Constant Phase Element). The corrosion rates were monitored continuously during exposure using an AC impedance technique. Simultaneously, the current distribution over the working electrode during impedance measurement was analyzed from the phase shift, $\theta$, in an intermediate frequency. The result showed that corrosion rate monitoring using an AC impedance method is suitable under the given exposure conditions even during the drying period when the metal is covered with the wetted mortar.

The effects of surface roughness on chromate conversion coating and the corrosion behavior of galvanized steel sheets were investigated. Surface roughness was differently given to the galvanized steel sheets tested and these were then chromated. Accelerated corrosion test was conducted under the condition of $30^{\circ}C$, 90%RH with flowing 200ppm $SO_2$ gas. The galvanized steels were also exposed to urban environment for 5 weeks. The corrosion rates were measured by weight gain method. The distribution of chromate film and corrosion product on the coating were examined which SEM/EDS. The chromate film formed preferentially at the convex sites rather than at the concave sites on the surface. The corrosion products were found at the concave sites where the chromate film formed rarely. The corrosion product on the coating were found at the concave sites where the chromate film formed rarely. The corrosion rates increased slightly with the surface roughness in accelerated corrosion test but significantly in field test.
