The present study concerns quantitative assessment of chloride extraction, repassivation and structural behavior of concrete. Concrete specimen ($160{\times}160{\times}1000mm$) was fabricated with 3 steel bar located in the middle with 20 mm of the cover depth, containing 5.0% of chloride to accelerate corrosion process, then to be subjected to electrochemical treatment. The current density accounted for $750mA/m^2$ at 2, 4 and 8 weeks. As a result, it was found that an increase in the duration of the treatment resulted in an increase in the chloride extraction, accounting for 64.7-83.7% for the specimen at 8 weeks treatment. It implies that a portion of bound chlorides would turn free to be removed, considering the binding capacity of cement about 50-60% to total ones. Even after the treatment, the corrosion was still active; the corrosion rate was $6.5mA/m^2$ and 330 mV vs. SCE in the potential. For structural behavior, the maximum load was increased by corrosion on the steel bars, which was subsequently lowered by the treatment, but still higher than for control.

A significant progress has been made in the characterization of zinc oxide (ZnO) semiconductor as a new semiconductor layer instead of amorphous Si semiconductor used in thin film transistor due to its high electron mobility at low deposition temperature which is quite suitable for flexible display and OLED devices. The wet pattering of ZnO is another important issue with regard to mass production of ZnO thin film transistor device. However, the wet behavior of ZnO thin film in aqueous wet etching solutions conventionally used un TFT industry has not been reported yet, in this work, wet corrosion behavior of RF magnetron sputtered ZnO thin film in various wet solutions such as phosphoric and nitric acid solutions was studied using by electrochemical analysis. The effects of deposition parameters such as RF power and oxygen partial pressure on corrosion rate are also examined.

In this study, we evaluated corrosion behavior of a common rolling stock axle material, RSA1, in seawater. 3-electrode electrochemical cell experiment was conducted using artificial sea water, fabricated according to ASTM-D1141 set by American Society for Testing and Materials, where the corrosion current density and corrosion rate were determined to be $18.3{\mu}A/cm2$ and 0.217 mm/yr, respectively, by employing potentiodynamic test method and impedance spectroscopy method. Considering the fact that life time of railway car is ~25 years, the expected corrosion layer depth is 5mm. Constant-current corrosion test was conducted to accelerate the corrosion process, to reach corrosion periods of 1,3 and 4 years based on Faraday's law, followed by tension tests where the reduced specimen gauge cross-section was re-measured for stress calculation. While no apparent corrosion-related changes in mechanical properties were observed in the elastic regime, the reduction in ductility of the material was found to be increased as the corrosion period increased. The results of this study are expected to be basic corrosion data for the design of rolling stock axles, which will be operated in the sea water environment.

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 $550^{\circ}C$.

Because austenitic stainless steel causes localized corrosion such as pitting and crevice corrosion in environments containing chlorine, corrosion resistance is improved by surface treatment or changes of the alloy element content. Accordingly, research using cyclic potentiodynamic polarization experiment to evaluate the properties of the passivation film of super austenitic stainless steel that improved corrosion resistance is being actively conducted. In this investigation, the electrochemical properties of austenitic stainless steel and super austenitic stainless steel were compared and analyzed through cyclic potentiodynamic polarization experiment with varying temperatures. Repassivation properties were not observed in austenitic stainless steels at all temperature conditions, but super austenitic stainless steels exhibited repassivation behaviors at all temperatures. This is expressed as α values using a relational formula comparing the localized corrosion rate and general corrosion rate. As the α values of UNS S31603 decreased with temperature, the tendency of general corrosion was expected to be higher, and the α value of UNS N08367 increased with increasing temperatures, so it is considered that the tendency of localized corrosion was dominant.
