Many excellent Al-Zn-In anode have been developed up to the present. But for the purpose of the better performance of Al-Zn-In anodes in sea water the effect of calcium silicon addition on anodic polarization and current capacity of Al-Zn-In anodes was measured and analysed in sea water and artificial sea water. The results and conclusions obtained are summarized as follows. 1) Being compared with Al-Zn-In anodes, Al-Zn-In anodes containing 0.05% calcium silicon had superior characteristics in both anodic polarization and current capacity. 2) Corrosion patterns of the anodes containing calcium silicon were much more uniform than those of Al-Zn-In anodes. 3) In this experiment the most useful anode was Al-4% Zn-0.03% In-0.05% (Ca-Si). It had a capacity of 2.60Amp-hr of current/g and a voltage of 1.13(SCE reference) at anodic current density 1,000 4{\mu}A/cm^2$.

The objective of this study was to investigate the electrochemical behavior and damage degree of metal surface under different conditions by performing a potentiodynamic polarization experiment using an electropolishing solution for UNS S31603 based on initial delay time and surface roughness (parameters). A second anodic peak occurred at initial delay time of 0s and 100s. However, it was not discovered at 1000s and 3600s. This research referred to an increase in current density due to hydrogen oxidation reaction among various hypotheses for the second anodic peak. After the experiment, both critical current density and corrosion current density decreased when the initial delay time (immersion time) was longer. As a result of surface analysis, characteristics of the potentiodynamic polarization behavior were similar with roughness, although the degree of damage was clearly different. With an increase in surface roughness value, the degree of surface damage was precisely observed. As such, electrochemical properties were different according to the immersion time in the electropolishing solution. To select electropolishing conditions such as applied current density, voltage, and immersion time, 1000s for initial delay time on the potentiodynamic polarization behavior was the most appropriate in this experiment.

일반적으로 중성용액 하에서 알루미늄 합금은 부동태피막($Al_2O_3$나 $Al_2O_3{\cdot}3H_2O$)을 형성한다. 그러나, 해수 환경에서 염소이온이 표면에 생성된 부동태 피막을 파괴하여 부식이 발생하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 해수환경 하에서 부식 문제점을 해결하기 위해 Al-4.5%Mg-0.6%Mn 알루미늄 합금에 대하여 정전위 방식 기술을 적용하였다. 분극실험결과, 개로전위보다 귀한 전위에서는 활성 용해 반응이 나타났으며 개로전위 보다 비한 전위에서는 용존산소 환원에 의한 농도 분극과 활성화 분극이 관찰되었다. 정전위 실험결과, 농도 분극에서 활성화 분극으로 전환되는 전위부터 적용 시간이 증가할수록 전착물이 많이 생성되었으며, 부분적으로 전착물과 모재의 계면사이에서 틈부식이 관찰되었다. 전체적으로 정전위 양극분극실험시, 활성용해반응이 발생하여 정전위 방식 기술을 적용하기 어려운 반면, 정전위 음극분극 실험시 방식 전위인 농도분극 범위내에서 적용 시간을 고려하여 최적 방식 조건을 -1.1 V~-0.75 V로 규명하였다.

In this study, anti-corrosion effect was investigated through various electrochemical experiments after applying Al thermal spraying technology to AA5083-H321. Open circuit potential and anodic polarization curves were analyzed through electrochemical experiments in natural seawater. The shape of the surface was observed using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and a 3D microscope before and after the experiment. Component and crystal structure were analyzed through EDS and XRD. As a result, the surface roughness of AA5083-H321 and the Al thermal sprayed coating layer increased due to surface damage caused by anodic dissolution reaction during the anodic polarization experiment. The corrosion rate of AA5083-H321 was relatively low because the Al thermal spray coating layer contained structural defects such as pores and crevices. Nevertheless, the open circuit potential of the Al thermal spray coating layer in natural seawater was measured about 0.2 V lower than that of AA5083-H321. Thus, a sacrificial anode protection effect can be expected.

본 연구에서는 해상풍력 타워 지지구조물용 강재인 S355ML 강에 대하여 전기화학적 기법으로 전기방식 설계에 필요한 최적 방식전위를 규명하고자 하였다. 동전위분극 실험 결과, 양극분극 곡선 상에서는 부동태 구간은 존재하지 않으며, 음극분극 곡선 상에는 용존산소환원반응에 의한 농도분극 구간과 수소가스 발생에 의한 활성화분극 구간이 관찰되었다. 음극방식 시 방식전위에 해당하는 농도분극 구간은 약 - 0.72 V ~ - 1.0 V의 전위 구간인 것으로 확인되었다. 다양한 전위에서 정전위 실험을 실시한 결과 전류밀도 변화는 시간에 따라 안정화되는 경향을 나타냈다. 1200초 동안 정전위 실험 후 주사전자현미경과 3D 분석 현미경을 이용한 시험편 표면 분석 결과, 양극분극 전위에 해당하는 0 V ~ - 0.50 V의 전위구간에서는 양극용해반응에 의한 부식손상이 관찰되었다. 이에 반해 음극분극 전위 영역에서는 대체적으로 손상이 없는 양호한 표면을 유지하였으며 석회질 피막 형성을 확인할 수 있었다. 연구결과, 농도분극 영역에 해당하는 - 0.8 V ~ - 1.0 V의 전위영역이 S355ML 강의 외부전원법에 의한 음극방식 적용 시 최적 방식 전위 구간으로 사료된다.

Corrosion characteristic of the duplex Al-Mg-Si alloys with low, commercial and high solute contents were studied using an anodic polarization test in 1M NaCl solution at room temperature. Polarization range condition of the experiment were form .0.3V to .1.3V with a 0.2 mV scanning speed. The exchange current density means corrosion rate of the low solute alloy was low as about $16.29{\mu}A/cm^2$, and that of the high solute alloy was high as $84.92{\mu}A/cm^2$. The difference was mainly attributed to the inter-granular precipitates $Mg_2Si$ and Si which could make a galvanic corrosion on the aluminum base. The amount of precipitates was greater in high solute alloy at mainly in grain boundary. While, the extruded alloys had better corrosion resistance than the cast alloy because the silicon precipitates become coarse during the extrusion process.

The chemical conversion coating formed on magnesium alloy investigated for low cost and harmless in environment by using the colloidal silica as the main component. The film formed in 298 K is thick, the film, which was thought combination of Si-O, was formed. The film formed in 313 K is thinner than that in 298 K. The quantity of film formed at high temperature such as 333 K and 353 K is smaller than dissolved quantity. At the anodic polarization experiment, corrosion resistance in sealing by hot water after chemical conversion treatment in basic solution condition get worse than that in comparison with basic solution condition. In salt spray test, the ratio of black rust on specimen that did not conducted chemical conversion treatment was five times or more compared with those of chemical conversion treated specimen. The film thickness of chemical conversion coating produced by alkali treatment process is thinner than in comparison with that of specimen produced in basic chemical conversion treatment solution condition. It is thought, however, that it showed good corrosion resistance during salt spray test because the area of microcracks is small.

In this paper, the characteristics of a cavitation-erosion damage behavior on the STS 304 and hot-dip aluminized STS 304 under cavitation environment in sea water solution was investigated. The electrochemical experiments were carried out by potential measurement, anodic/cathodic polarization test, Tafel analysis, and also galvanostatic experiment in current density variables for the samples. The apparatus of cavitation-electrochemical experiment was manufactured in compliance with modified ASTM G-32 standard, with the conditions of sea water temperature of $25^{\circ}C$ and the measurement, amplitude of $30{\mu}m$. The damage behavior was analyzed by an observation of surface mophologies and a measurement of damage depth by a scanning electron microscope(SEM) and a 3D microscope, respectively, after electrochemical test. After polarization experiment under cavitation environment, much higher damage depths for the hot-dip aluminized STS 304 were observed comparing to the untreated STS 304. In addition, higher corrosion current density in hot-dip aluminized STS 304 presented than that of untreated STS 304 as a result of Tafel analysis.

Stainless steel is a metal that does not generate rust. Due to its excellent workability, economic feasibility, and corrosion resistance, it is used in various industrial fields such as ships, piping, nuclear power, and machinery. However, stainless steel is vulnerable to corrosion in harsh environments. To solve this problem, its corrosion resistance could be improved by electrochemically forming an anodized film on its surface. In this study, 316L stainless steel was anodized at room temperature with ethylene glycol-based 0.1 M NH₄F and 0.1M H₂O electrolyte to adjust the thickness of the oxide film using different anodic oxidation voltages (30 V, 50 V, and 70 V) with time control. The anodic oxidation experiment was performed by increasing the time from 1 hour to 7 hours at 2-hour intervals. Corrosion resistance according to the thickness of the anodic oxide film was observed. Electrochemical corrosion behavior of oxide films was investigated through polarization experiments.
