This study aimed to evaluate corrosion resistance of steel coated with GI and Zn-Al-Mg alloy using cyclic corrosion test (CCT) with electrochemical polarization and impedance measurements. Results showed that the Zn-Al-Mg alloy coated steel had a much higher corrosion rate than GI coated steel in early stages of corrosion. With prolonged immersion, however, the corrosion rate of the Zn-Al-Mg alloy coated steel greatly decreased, mainly owing to a significant decrease in the cathodic reduction reaction and an increase in polarization resistance at the surface. This was closely associated with the formation of protective corrosion products including Zn₅(OH)₈Cl₂·H₂O and Zn₆Al₂(OH)₁₆CO₃. Moreover, when the steel substrate was locally exposed due to mechanical damage, the kinetics of anodic dissolution from the coating layer and the formation of protective corrosion products on the surface of the Zn-Al-Mg alloy coated steel became much faster compared to the case of GI coated steel. This could provide a longer-lasting corrosion inhibition function for Zn-Al-Mg alloy coated steel used in plant farms.

폴리아닐린 분말과 고분자 계면활성제, cyclohexanone용매를 micro-milling장치내에서 분산시켜 (m입자 크기를 갖는 가공용이한 분산액을 제조하였다. 분산액을 백금 전극 위에 코팅하여 얻은 분산박막의 전기화학적 특성들은 순환전압전류법(CV)을 이용하여 조사하였다. CV의 결과에 의하면 폴리아닐린 분산박막이 순수한 폴리아닐린 박막과 유사한 전기화학적 특성을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. $3wt.\%$ NaCl용액에서 수행한 분극실험과 열린회로전위 측정 실험에서는 PANI분산액을 철표면에 코팅하면 부식전위가 증가하였다. 분산박막/철 전극의 열린회로전위값(OCP, Voc)이 분산액의 제조 조건에 따라 변화가 있음을 관찰하였다. 이러한 결과들은 본 연구에서 사용한 전도성 고분자 분산액이 철의 부식방지코팅물질로서 유용성을 갖고 있다는 것을 보여주고 있다.

본 연구는 시멘트 모르타르 속에 매입된 철근이 3wt.% NaCl 전해질 수용액에 8시간 침지 및 대기 중에서 16시간 건조가 반복되는 환경에 있을 때 교류 임피던스법을 이용하여, 10kHz에서 용액저항, 10mHz에서 전하이동저항을 측정하여, 그 값의 차이로부터 분극저항을 계산하여 부식속도를 측정하였다. 부식속도를 제어하기 위해 포화 Ca(OH)₂ 용액에서 일정시간 전착하여, 그 효과를 관찰하였다. 철근의 부식속도는 용존산소의 확산속도 증가에 의해, 침지보다는 건조 환경에서 가속되었으며, 이것은 모르타르 두께가 얇을수록 명확히 측정되었다. 침지 및 건조 반복횟수가 증가함에 따로, 철근의 부식속도는 부동태에서 Low-middle 상태로 가속되었으며, 그 기준은 다수의 연구자들이 사용한 기준을 사용하였다. 이 기준에 의해 철근의 부식속도가 Low-middle 상태가 되면, 포화 Ca(OH)₂ 용액에서 -10 uA/㎠ 전류밀도를 사용하여 철근에 전착을 진행하고, 5일간 건조시킨 후, 3wt.% NaCl 용액에서 침지-건조 반복실험을 다시 진행하면서, 부식속도를 측정하였다. 측정결과, 모르타르의 두께가 얇은 경우, 부식속도의 감소를 명확히 관찰하였다. 또한, 전착에 의한 철근의 부식속도 감소는 침지상태에서 보다 철근이 건조과정에 놓일 때, 더욱 크게 측정되었다. 전착처리에 따라 칼슘은 철근표면과 모르타르 계면에 존재하는 Porous rust layer의 void를 메우는 것으로 보인다. 시험체가 건조과정에 놓일 때, 철근표면에 형성된 다공질의 녹층속에 농축된 Ca²⁺가 침지과정보다 쉽게 CO₃^2-와 결합되어, CaCO₃가 형성됨으로서 철근의 부식속도를 더욱 감소시킨 것으로 생각된다.

A heavy oil of low quality has been mainly used in the diesel engine of the merchant ship as the oil price has been significantly jumped for several years. Thus, a combustion chamber of the engine has been often exposed to severely corrosive environment more and more because temperature of the exhaust gas of the combustion chamber has been getting higher and higher with increasing of using the heavy oil of low quality. As a result, wear and corrosion of the engine parts such as exhaust valve, piston crown and cylinder head surrounded with combustion chamber are more serious compared to the other parts of the engine. Therefore, an optimum repair welding for these engine parts is very important to prolong their lifetime in a economical point of view. In this study, 1.25Cr-0.5Mo filler metal was welded with SMAW method in the forged steel which would be generally used with piston crown material. And the corrosion properties of weld metal, heat affected and base metal zones were investigated using electrochemical methods such as measurement of corrosion potential, anodic polarization curves, cyclic voltammogram and impedance etc. in 35% $H_2SO_4$ solution. The weld metal and base metal zones exhibited the highest and lowest values of hardness respectively. And, the corrosion resistance of the heat affected and weld metal zones was also increased than that of the base metal zone. Furthermore, it appeared that the corrosive products with red color and local corrosion like as a pitting corrosion were more frequently observed on the surface of the base metal zone compared to the heat affected and weld metal zones. Consequently, it is suggested that the mechanical and corrosion characteristics of the piston crown can be predominantly improved by repair welding method using the 1.25Cr-0.5Mo electrode.

Recently a fuel oil of the diesel engine of the marine ship is being changed with heavy oil of low quality as the oil price is higher more and more. Therefore the wear and corrosion in all parts of the engine such as cylinder liner, piston crown, spindle and seat ring of exhaust valves are predominantly increased. In particular the degree of wear and corrosion of piston crown is more seriously compared to the other parts of the engine due to operating in severe environment such as the high temperature of exhaust gas and repeating impact. Thus the repair weldment of the piston crown is a unique method to prolong the its life in a economical point of view. In this case, filler metals having a high corrosion and wear resistance such as stellite 6, Inconel 625 and Inconel 718 are mainly being used for repair welding. However it has been often happened that piston crown on the ship,s job site is being actually inevitably welded with mild filler metals. Therefore in this study, filler metals such as E4301, E4313 and E4316 were welded at SS401 steel as the base metal, and corrosion property of their weld metals in the case of post weld heat treatment or not was investigated with some electrochemical methods such as measurement of corrosion potential, cathodic and anodic polarization curves, cyclic voltammogram and polarization resistance etc. in 0.1% $H_2SO_4$ solution. Corrosion resistance of the weld metal of E4301 was better than the other weld metals in the case of no heat treatment, however, its resistance was considerably decreased with post weld heat treatment(annealing:$625^{\circ}C$, 2 hr) compared to other weld metals. The weld metals of E4313 and E4316 showed a relatively good corrosion resistance by post weld heat treatment.

Steel is becoming increasingly popular due to its high strength, excellent ductility, great assembly performance, and recyclability. In reality, steel structures serving for a long time in atmospheric, industrial, and marine environments inevitably suffer from corrosion, which significantly decreases the durability and the service life with the exposure time. For the mechanical properties of corroded steel, experimental studies are mainly conducted. The existing numerical analyses only evaluate the mechanical properties based on corroded morphology at the isolated time-in-point, ignoring that this morphology varies continuously with corrosion time. To solve this problem, the relationships between pit depth expectation, standard deviation, and corrosion time are initially constructed based on a large amount of wet-dry cyclic accelerated test data. Successively, based on that, an in-situ pitting evolution method for evaluating the residual tensile strength of corroded steel is proposed. To verify the method, 20 repeated simulations of mass loss rates and mechanical properties are adopted against the test results. Then, numerical analyses are conducted on 135 models of corrosion pits with different aspect ratios and uneven corrosion degree on two corroded surfaces. Results show that the power function with exponents of 1.483 and 1.091 can well describe the increase in pit depth expectation and standard deviation with corrosion time, respectively. The effect of the commonly used pit aspect ratios of 0.10-0.25 on yield strength and ultimate strength is negligible. Besides, pit number ratio α equating to 0.6 is the critical value for the strength degradation. When α is less than 0.6, the pit number increases with α, accelerating the degradation of strength. Otherwise, the strength degradation is weakened. In addition, a power function model is adopted to characterize the degradation of yield strength and ultimate strength with corrosion time, which is revised by initial steel plate thickness.

Effects of Al and Cr alloying elements on the corrosion behavior of Fe-Al-Cr alloy system was investigated using potentiodynamic and cyclic potentiodynamic polarization tests(CPPT) in the $H_2SO_4$ and HCI solutions. The corrosion morphologies in Fe-Al-Cr alloy were analysed by utilizing scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and EDX. It was found that the corrosion potential of Fe-20Cr-20Al was highest whereas the critical anodic current density and passive current density were lower than that of the other alloys in 0.1 M $H_2SO_4$ solution. The second anodic peak at 1000 mV disappeared in the case of alloys containing high Al and low Cr contents. Pitting potential increased with increasing Cr content and repassivation potential decreased with decreasing Al content in 0.1 M HCI solution. Fe-Al-Cr alloy containing high Al and Cr contents showed remarkably improved pitting resistance against $Cl^-$ attack from pit morphologies.

철근콘크리트 구조물은 철근과 콘크리트의 완전한 부착을 가정하여 시공된다. 그러나 해양 및 내륙에 건설된 구조물은 해양으로부터 발생한 염분과 각종 대기오염 물질 및 산성비와 같은 콘크리트의 열화적 요인들에 노출되어 있으며 이로 인해 철근콘크리트 내부의 철근은 부식될 수 있으며, 철근의 부식에 의한 부식생성물로 인한 철근 주변의 팽창압력에 의해 콘크리트 표면에 균열이나 박리가 발생한다. 이러할 경우에 부식인자의 침투가 용이하게 되기 때문에 철근부식이 가속되어 콘크리트와 철근의 부착감소, 철근단면 감소에 따른 부재내력의 저하가 발생한다. 철근콘크리트 기둥의 철근을 강제로 부식시켜 반복가력 하는 실험을 수행하였다. 이러한 실험을 통하여 철근콘크리트 기둥의 부착특성에 대한 기둥의 거동을 파악하였다. 본 연구의 주요 변수는 철근의 부식정도로 하였다.
