Recently, with the tendency of lightening, high-strength and high-speed in the marine industries such as marine structures, ships and propellers, it is rapidly enlarged the use of the aluminium alloy. Therefore, there occurs much interest in the study on corrosion characteristics of aluminium alloy. This paper was studied on the corrosion characteristics of Al-Mg alloy propeller used for a coasting vessel. Under the various pH of marine environment, the corrosion test of Al-Mg alloy was carried out. And thus polarization resistance, corrosion potential, and current density behavior of Al-Mg alloy and galvanic corrosion behavior of Al-brass and Al-Mg alloy coupled Al 5086 and SS 400 for hull were investigated. The main results are as following: 1. The corrosion potential of Al-brass propeller is more nobel than materials for hull, but that of Al-Mg alloy propeller is low or similar to materials for hull. Therefore, the galvanic corrosion of hull due to Al-Mg propeller don't occur. 2. The polarization resistance of Al-Mg alloy in sea water of pH 4 is highest, and corrosion current density of Al-Mg propeller is the most controlled. 3. As pH value decreases, potential showed Evans polarization diagram approaches cathodic potential. The corrosion current density of Al-Mg alloy is controlled to anodic reaction rate, therefore, the corrosion reaction of Al-Mg alloy is anodic control.

Al-Mg alloy, an open rack vaporizer(ORV) material was reported to be corroded in seawater environments though the ORV material was coupled to thermally sprayed Al-Zn alloy functioning a sacrificial anode. In addition, the corrosion behavior based on the calculated corrosion potential did not match the observed corrosion behavior. Hence, the goal of this study is to get better understanding on Al or Al-Mg alloy coupled to Al-Zn alloy and to provide the calculated corrosion potential representing the corrosion behavior of the ORV material by immersion test, electrochemical tests, and calculation of corrosion and galvanic potential. The corrosion potentials of Al and Al alloys also depended on alloying element as well as surface defects. The corrosion potentials of Al and Al-Mg alloy were changed with time. In the meantime, the corrosion potentials of Al-Zn alloys were not. The corrosion rates of Al-Zn alloys were exponentially increased with zinc contents. The phenomena were explained with the stability of passive film proved by passive current density depending on pH and confirmed by the model proposed by McCafferty. Dissimilar material crevice corrosion (DMCC) test shows that higher content of zinc caused Al-Mg alloy corroded more rapidly, which was due to the fact that higher corrosion rate of Al-Zn makes [$H^+$] and [$Cl^-$] more concentrated within pit solution to corrode Al-Mg alloy. Considering electrochemical reactions within pit as well as bulk in the calculation gives better prediction on the corrosion behavior of Al and Al-Mg alloy as well as the capability of Al-Zn alloy for corrosion protection.

The effects of post-CMP cleaning on the chemical and galvanic corrosion of copper (Cu) and titanium (Ti) were studied in patterned silicon (Si) wafers. First, variation of the corrosion rate was investigated as a function of the concentration of citric acid that was included in both the CMP slurry and the post-CMP solution. The open circuit potential (OCP) of Cu decreased as the citric acid concentration increased. In contrast with Cu, the OCP of titanium (Ti) increased as this concentration increased. The gap in the OCP between Cu and Ti increased as citric acid concentration increased, which increased the galvanic corrosion rate between Cu and Ti. The corrosion rates of Cu showed a linear relationship with the concentrations of citric acid. Second, the effect of Triton X-$100^{(R)}$, a nonionic surfactant, in a post-CMP solution on the electrochemical characteristics of the specimens was also investigated. The OCP of Cu decreased as the surfactant concentration increased. In contrast with Cu, the OCP of Ti increased greatly as this concentration increased. Given that Triton X-$100^{(R)}$ changes its micelle structure according to its concentration in the solution, the corrosion rate of each concentration was tested.

The stress corrosion cracking(SCC) and hydrogen embrittlement cracking(HEC) characteristics of a weathering steel weldment were investigated in aerated acid-chloride solution. The electrochemical properties of weldment were investigated by polarization test and galvanic corrosion test. Weathering steel did not show passive behavior in the acid-chloride solution. Galvanic corrosion between the weld metal and the base metal was not observed because the base metal was anodic to the weld metal. The slow-strain-rate tests(SSRT0 were conducted at a constant strain rate o 7.87×{TEX}$10^{-7}${/TEX}/s at corrosion potential, and at potentiostatically controlled anodic and cathodic potentials. The weldment of weathering steel was susceptible to both anodic dissolution SCC and hydrogen evolution HEC.

The corrosion behavior of metals and alloys for the safety of offshore structures in seawater was investigated for the application of sacrificial anodes. The experiments were focused on the polarization behaviors and the surface morphology of each metal after experiments. Pure Zn, pure Al (Al1050), Al alloys (Al5052, Al6061), Mg alloys (AZ31, AZ91D) and steel (SCM440) were assessed in 3.5% sodium chloride solution by means of potentiodynamic polarization to verify the galvanic corrosion potential ($E_{couple}$). Potentiostat plots were plotted to compare the surface and corrosion current density ($i_{couple}$) of metals as sacrificial anodes in seawater to protect steel alloy as a cathode. Al alloys showed the best performance as a sacrificial anode, on the other hand, Mg alloys showed overprotection behavior. The surface morphologies of sacrificial anodes were observed by FESEM and compared.

최근 해양환경의 대형 SOC구조물 증가에 따른 구조물 내구성 증진에 관심이 증가되고 있다. 내구성 증진을 위해 개발된 FRP Hybrid Bar의 구조적 성능은 검증 되었으나 부식에 대한 저항성을 평가한 연구는 미흡하여 본 연구를 수행 하였다. 본 연구에서는 콘크리트 중의 철근 종류에 따른 철근부식 저항성을 평가하였다. 평가를 위하여 철근은 일반철근과 FRP hybrid Bar을 사용하였다. 시험방법은 갈바닉전류(Galvanic)와 반전지법(Half-Cell)을 사용하였으며, 철근부식 촉진을 위하여 콘크리트 내부에 염분을 0%, 1.5%, 3%, 6% 첨가하였다. 그 결과 갈바닉전류측정에서 FRP Hybrid Bar는 부식전류가 측정되지 않았다. 반면 일반철근에서는 시험 직후 부식이 발생하는 결과를 나타내었다. Half-Cell측정 결과에서도 4단계의 염분 함유량의 차이와 광물질혼화재료를 사용한 콘크리트와 일반콘크리트에 관계없이 FRP Hybrid Bar의 부식 저항성이 우수하게 나타났다. 따라서 FRP Hybrid Bar는 해양환경 및 철근부식이 예측되는 구조물용 대체 철근으로 사용이 가능하나 부착성능, 탄성계수, 절곡부의 강선 노출에 대한 처리 방법 등이 개선되면 염해로부터 철근부식 저항성 확보를 요구하는 구조물에 사용 할 수 있는 우수한 소재로 판단된다.

Hydration products formed on the steel surface may impose the resistance to corrosion of steel when a concrete is exposed to a salt environment. In the present study, ordinary Portland cement (OPC), calcium aluminate cement (CAC) and calcium hydroxide are applied as coating materials on the steel surface to consider the hydrations of each binder at corrosion. Corrosion is measured in terms of the corrosion potential and galvanic current to detect the effects in mitigating the corrosion behavior.

The objective of this study was to investigate the corrosion behavior of aluminum (AA1100) in a mixed solution of 0 ~ 0.1 g/L Na₂S + 0.3 ~ 3 g/L NaCl + 0 ~ 10 mL/L H₂O₂. Potentiodynamic polarization tests were performed. Effects of solution compositions on corrosion potential, corrosion rate, and pitting potential of aluminum were statistically analyzed with a regression model. Results suggested that localized corrosion susceptibility of aluminum was increased in the solution with increasing concentration of NaCl because the pitting potential was lowered linearly with increasing NaCl concentration. On the contrary, H₂O₂ mitigated the galvanic corrosion of aluminum by increasing the corrosion potential. It also mitigated localized corrosion by increasing the pitting potential of aluminum. Na₂S did not exert a noticeable effect on the corrosion of aluminum. These effects of different chemical species at various concentrations were independent of each other. Synergy or offset effect was not observed.
