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.

Phosphate based inhibitor is playing a decisive role in inhibiting the corrosion of steel rebar in chloride condition. We have used different amount of ammonium phosphate monobasic (APMB) as corrosion inhibitor in mortar with different amount of chloride ions. The compressive strength, flexural strength, open circuit potential (OCP), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic polarization resistance (PPR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Raman spectroscopy were performed to access the effect of inhibitor on corrosion resistance. As the amount of inhibitor is increased, the compressive strength increased. The electrochemical results show that as the amount of inhibitor and chloride ions are increased, the total impedance and corrosion resistance of steel rebar increased attributed to the formation of the stable oxide films onto the steel rebar surface. It is suggested that APMB can work in high concentration of chloride ions present in concrete where phosphate ion helps in formation of stable and protective phosphate based oxide film.

This study was performed to evaluate the adsorption rate of phosphate corrosion inhibitor and reaction rate constant in drinking water distribution systems. The optimum concentration of corrosion inhibitor would vary depending on the quality of water, pipe materials, and condition of metal surfaces. The current adsorption study indicated that the residual phosphate concentration of the corrosion inhibitor decreased with the time as it adsorbed on the surface of pipe material. As time went by, the residual phosphate concentration became constant. It means that the formation of the corrosion protection film on metal surfaces is completed.

본 연구는 가정 옥내급수관에 적수 및 탁수 등을 유발하고 철, 구리 등 중금속이 용출될 수 있는 부식 문제 해결을 위해 인산염계 부식억제제를 주입하는 회분식 실험을 통해 옥내급수관으로 가장 많이 사용되고 있는 아연도 강관의 표면 도금이 벗겨진 상태인 탄소강관을 대상으로 주요 수질인자의 변화, 철의 용출농도 변화, 부식도 및 부착도 평가, 시편의 상태를 고찰하였다. 탄소강관에서 부식억제제를 주입하였을때 pH, 전기전도도, 알칼리도, Ca-경도 등의 부식성 수질인자는 약간의 변화가 있었으나, 큰 영향은 없었다. 탁도의 경우 부식억제제를 5 mg $P_2O_5/L$ 주입시 주입하지 않은 것에 비해 약 10배정도 낮게 나타나 부식억제제가 탁도 유발 억제에 큰 효과가 있음을 확인하였다. 부식억제제의 주입농도가 5 mg $P_2O_5/L$일 때까지는 부식억제제 농도가 증가함에 따라 철(Fe) 용출농도와 부식도가 서서히 감소하는 경향을 보였으며, 부식억제제 5 mg $P_2O_5/L$ 주입시 급격히 감소하여 부식억제제를 주입하지 않은 경우보다 각각 약 12.2배, 약 24배의 저감 효과를 보였다. 결론적으로 인산염계 부식억제제 약 5 mg $P_2O_5/L$ 주입은 옥내 급수관 내부 표면에 치밀한 방식 피막을 형성하여 부식제어에 효과가 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The injection concentration of corrosion inhibitor increases under the pH 7, temperature of 2$0^{\circ}C$, and alkalinity of 35 mg/l (as CaCO$_3$), the corrosion rate gradually decreased. When the corrosion inhibitor of 10 mg/l is injected, the corrosion rate for carbon steel pipe, galvanized steel pipe, and copper pipe reduces for 37, 66 and 61 % respectively that it is more efficient on galvanized steel pipe and copper pipe. As a result of examination of corrosion rate at pH 6, 7, and 8 when injecting 10 mg/l of corrosion inhibitor under the conditions of 2$0^{\circ}C$ in water temperature and 35 mg/l (as CaCO$_3$) in alkalinity, the efficiency of the corrosion inhibitor increases as the pH increases. For carbon steel pipe, it does not show much a difference with the change of the pH condition, but galvanized steel pipe and copper pipe clearly show the corrosion rate depending on the change of the pH condition. The efficiency of corrosion inhibitor is low as the concentration of residual chlorine is high, but it does not show a great influence at 0.4 mg/l or less. For each pipe type, in the case of carbon steel pipe, the range of increase of corrosion speed following the residual chloride is higher than the other pipe types. In the meantime, the effect following the residual chlorine in copper pipe is low.

The main purpose of this study was to investigate the red water reducing effects of phosphate based inhibitor when it was applied to water distribution system. The effects of pH, alkalinity, calcium concentration in the reduction of the red water also studied. The most finished water in Korea showed relatively high corrosiveness and was required to introduce some types of corrosion reducing methods such as addition of alkalinity. The precipitation of $CaCO_3$ by addition of $Ca(OH)_2$ formed porous film on the surface of the carbon steel pipes and was displaced easily from the surface of the pipes; on the other hand, addition of zinc phosphate (ZOP) formed reliable film on the surface and reduced iron release and color. Although the main function of ZOP was to suppress the release of Pb and Cu, it also reduced iron concentration released from water distribution pipes.

Corrosion of reinforcement steel is a major cause of deterioration in reinforced concrete (RC) structures. In order to protect these structures from corrosion, corrosion inhibitors are added to the concrete mix. In recent years, zwitterionic compounds have shown promising results as corrosion inhibitors in concrete due to their ability to form a protective layer on the surface of the reinforcement steel. The experimental study involves preparing concrete samples with different concentrations of adding the hybrid corrosion inhibitor at a high concentration of chloride ions. This study aims to determine the chloride threshold value and service life of hybrid corrosion inhibitors in reinforced concrete based on zwitterions. The samples are subjected to accelerated corrosion tests in a chloride environment to determine the threshold value and service life of the corrosion inhibitor. The effect of hybrid inhibitor on mechanical properties is guaranteed in allowable range. The chloride threshold concentration and service life of hybrid inhibitor containing samples perform greater than those of plain RC.

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.

Aerospace aluminum alloys such as Al alloy 2024-T3 and 7075-T6 are subject to localized corrosion due the existence of intermetallics containing Cu, Mg or Zn. Chromate is currently widely used in the aerospace industry as the corrosion inhibitor for these alloys. However, chromate needs to be replaced due to its strong carcinogenicity. In this study, an extensive pigment screening has been performed to find replacements for chromates. Different categories of inhibitors were evaluated by immersion tests, DC polarization tests and other methods. Phosphates, zinc salts, cerium salts, vanadates and benzotriazole were found to be effective inhibitors for AA7075. Among those inhibitors, zinc phosphate was found to be the most effective in our novel, silane-based, one-step aqueous primer system. The performance of this primer is comparable to that of currently used chromate primers in accelerated corrosion tests, while it is completely chromate-free and its VOC is about 80% less than that of current primers. Studies by SEM/EDS showed that the unique structure of the superprimer accounts for the strong anti-corrosion performance of the zinc phosphate pigment. The self-assembled stratified double-layer structure of the superprimer is characterized by a less-penetrable hydrophobic layer at the top and a hydrophilic layer accommodating the inhibitors underneath. The top layer functions as the physical barrier against water ingress, while the lower layer functions as a reservoirfor the inhibitor, which is leached out only if the coating is damaged by a scratch or scribe. The presence of a silane in the primer further improves the adhesion and anti-corrosion performance of the primer.

The heat transfer performance improvement in closed cooling water system of an electric power generation can be achieved by a corrosion control using corrosion inhibitors. The effect of trisodium phosphate and sodium nitrite upon carbon steel at various $Cl^{-1}$ ion containing water concentrations was examined by an integrated corrosion monitoring system. Nitrite was found to be the most effective inhibitor among tested inhibitors for carbon steel. The inhibiting process is considered as adsorption of nitrite ions in oxide layer which form a passive film on the carbon steel surface.
