The anti-corrosion behaviour of epoxy coatings containing GO and rGO nanosheets was investigated. FESEM-EDS, FT-IR, and Raman spectroscopy were used to examine the microstructure and chemical composition of the nanosheets and epoxy coatings. EIS experiment was used to explore the corrosion behaviour of the coatings. The O/C ratio for GO and rGO-SLE was found to be 2.5 and 4.5, indicating a decrease in the carbon content after the reduction of GO, confirming the adsorption of SLE onto the GO nanosheets. The successful reduction of GO in the presence of SLE particles was confirmed by disappearing the C=O peak and a significant decrease in the C-O-C bond intensity. The epoxy/rGO- SLE coatings exhibited the highest double-layer thickness and excellent corrosion resistance compared to neat epoxy and epoxy/GO coatings, emphasizing the significant role of rGO in enhancing the protective performance of epoxy coatings. The highest values for total charge transfer and film resistances and the inhibition efficiency were observed to be 6529 Ω·cm^(2) and 90%, respectively, for the epoxy/rGO-SLE coated steel plate. It was also found that the epoxy/0.15 wt.% rGO-SLE coating demonstrates the best corrosion resistance performance.展开更多

X-ray diffraction （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy（SEM）, energy-dispersive spectroscopy（EDS）, electrochemical measurements, weight loss tests and Raman spectrometer were used to character the properties of the coating. As the Cu content increased from 7.3 wt% to 24.8 wt%, the corrosion current density of the Ni-Cu-P/n-TiN coating decreased from 10.80 to 4.34 ~tA. And the inclusion of Cu in NiP alloy resulted in refinement and less porosity in microstructure. The addition of TiN resulted in a slight decline in anti-corrosion property of the coating. As the mass loss test showed, Ni-24.8%Cu-P exhibited perfect corrosion resistance. Studies by Raman spectroscopy on coatings proved that Cu（II）3（PO4）（OH）3, Cu（OH）2 and CuO were examined while no compound of nickel was found, and Cu exhibited preferred corrosion in saline solution, providing cathodic protection to Ni alloy.展开更多

In order to...The corrosion properties of aluminum-lithium(Al-Li) alloys, which are potential materials used to construct for tanks of liquid rockets or missiles, are essential for safe propellant storage and transport. In order to manifest the corrosion resistance of the 2195 Al-Li alloy in practical propellant tanks filled with N2O4, the alloy was soaked in 30% nitric acid solution, an accelerating corrosion environment, to test its corrosion behavior. Scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and transmission electron microscopy(TEM)were used to characterize microstructure and corrosion morphology of the alloy. Focused ion beam(FIB),combined with SEM, was used to demonstrate localized corrosion features and the propagation of corrosion pathways beneath the alloy surface. It was found that the corrosion network was formed with most intergranular corrosion and sparse intragranular corrosion. Additionally, the distribution and number of intermetallic particles influenced the localized corrosion degree and the direction of corrosion pathways. Aggregated particles made corrosion pathways continuously and caused more severe corrosion. The results from this work were valid and useful to corrosion prevention and protection for storage safety on propellant tanks in N_(2)O_(4).展开更多

Results show that the peak-aging times of Mg-（0.25, 2.5, 5, 8 and 15） Y alloys at 250 ℃ were 4, 6, 10, 12 and 16 h. The aging treatment reduced the corrosion resistance of Mg-Y alloys, and the corrosion resistance of Mg-Y alloys became worse with increasing of the aging time. The change magnitude of the open circuit potentials for Mg-（0.25, 2.5）Y alloys was greater than that of Mg-（5, 8 and 15）-Y alloys. The polarization curves of Mg （0.25, 2.5, 5, 8 and 15） Y alloys had the similar shape after aging treatment, and the slopes of the anodic branch were greater than those of the cathodic branches. After aging treatment, the corrosion modes of Mg-0.25Y and Mg-（2.5, 5, 8 and 15） Y alloys were uniform corrosion and pitting corrosion with small local deep corrosion.展开更多

Mass loss method was applied to evaluate the corrosion resistance of AZ91D alloys and the data were analyzed by multiple regression. The results show that the corrosion resistance of this alloy can be improved by increasing Al, Zn and Mn in a certain degree, and will drop with increasing Si and heavy metals (Fe, Cu, Ni). It is found that ingots received from company F should be listed into unusable materials in terms of the corrosion resistance, while among the five suppliers, the only local company E supplied excellent AZ91D magnesium alloy ingots with the best corrosion resistance.展开更多

文摘The effects of Yb/Zr micro-alloying on the microstructure,mechanical properties,and corrosion resistance of an Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy were systematically investigated.Upon the addition of Yb/Zr to the Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy,the grain boundaries were pinned by high-density nanosized Al_(3)(Yb,Zr)precipitates during extrusion deformation,consequently,the average grain size was significantly reduced from 232.7μm to 3.2μm.This grain refinement contributed substantially to the improvement in both strength and elongation.The ultimate tensile strength,yield strength,and elongation of the Yb/Zr modified alloy increased to 705.3 MPa,677.6 MPa,and 8.7%,respectively,representing enhancements of 16.2%,19.3%,and 112.2%compared to the unmodified alloy.Moreover,the distribution of MgZn_(2)phases along grain boundaries became more discontinuous in the Yb/Zr modified alloy,which effectively retarded the propagation of intergranular corrosion and improved the corrosion resistance.

文摘This study examines the effects of friction stir welding(FSW)and post-weld heat treatment(PWHT)on the grain boundary character distribution and corrosion resistance of cross sectional(top and bottom)regions of nickel-and molybdenum-free high-nitrogen austenitic stainless steel(HNASS).FSW at 400 rpm and 30 mm/min resulted in finer grains(4.18μm)and higher coincident site lattice(CSL)boundaries(32.3%)at the top of the stir zone(SZ)due to dynamic recrystallization(DRX).PWHT at 900℃for 1 h led to grain coarsening(12.91μm the bottom SZ)but enhanced CSL boundaries from 24.6%to 30.2%,improving grain boundary stability.PWHT reduced the kernel average misorientation(KAM)by 14.9%in the SZ-top layer and 20.4%in the SZ-bottom layer,accompanied by a 25%decrease in hardness in the SZ-top layer and 26.7%in the SZ-bottom layer,indicating strain recovery and reduced dislocation density.Potentiodynamic polarization tests(PDP)showed a 18%increase in pitting potential and a 76%reduction in corrosion rate after PWHT.The improvement in corrosion resistance is attributed to the increase inΣ3 twin boundaries,which enhance grain boundary stability and reduce susceptibility to localized corrosion.These findings highlight the role of PWHT in refining the microstructure and strengthening corrosion resistance,making HNASS a promising material for demanding applications.

文摘Copper is a versatile material,commonly utilized in power transmission and electronic devices,but its relative high reactivity necessitates a long-lasting protective technique.Here,we report a method that combines plasma-enhanced non-equilibrium magnetron sputtering physical vapor deposition(PEUMS-PVD)and anodization to construct a self-healing three-dimensional Ti/Al-doped TiO_(2)nanotubes/Ti_(3)AlC_(2)coating on the surface of Cu substrates.This novel strategy enhances the corrosion resistance of copper substrates in marine environments,with corrosion current densities of up to 4.5643×10^(−8)A/cm^(2).Among them,the doping of nano-aluminum particles makes the coating self-healing.The mechanistic analysis of the corrosion behaviors during early immersion experiments was conducted using electrochemical noise,and revealed that during the initial stages of coating immersion,uniform corrosion predominates,with a minor occurrence of localized corrosion.

文摘Al-Mg-Mn-Sc-Zr alloys with excellent weldability have emerged as ideal candidates for aerospace applications.Currently,the investigations on the corrosion behavior of alloys under tungsten inert gas(TIG)welding conditions are insufficient.Here,the stress corrosion cracking(SCC)behavior of base metal(BM)and weld zone(WZ)of TIG welded Al-Mg-Mn-Sc-Zr alloys was investigated by using pre-cracked compact tensile samples immersed in 3.5%NaCl solution.The direct current potential drop(DCPD)method was used to record the crack propagation.The microstructure and fracture morphology of different regions of TIG welded joints were studied by SEM,EBSD and TEM,and the SCC crack propagation mechanism of BM and WZ was analyzed.The results demonstrated that the critical stress intensity factor for stress corrosion cracking(K_(ⅠSCC))of BM and WZ was 7.05 MPa·m_(1/2) and 11.79 MPa·m_(1/2),respectively.Then,the crack propagation rate of BM was faster than that of WZ,and BM was more susceptible to SCC than WZ.Additionally,the fracture mode of the BM mainly exhibited transgranular fracture,while the fracture mode of the WZ mainly exhibited intergranular and transgranular mixed fracture.Moreover,SCC crack propagation was attributed to the combined effect of anodic dissolution and hydrogen embrittlement.This study will provide experimental and theoretical basis for the wide application of TIG welded Al-Mg-Mn-Sc-Zr alloys in aerospace.

文摘Copper-nickel alloys can suffer severe localized corrosion in marine environments containing sulfate-reducing bacteria(SRB),but the effect of SRB on the under-deposit corrosion of copper-nickel alloys is unknown.In this work,the corrosion behavior of B10 copper-nickel alloy beneath a deposit caused by SRB with carbon source starvation in artificial seawater was studied based on electrochemical measurements and surface analysis.Results demonstrate that SRB with an organic carbon starvation can survive in artificial water but most SRB cells have died.The survived SRB cells can attach to the bare and deposit-covered B10 copper-nickel alloy,leading to the corrosion acceleration.Due to the limitation of organic carbon source,the pitting corrosion of B10 copper-nickel alloy caused by SRB is not serious.However,serious pitting corrosion of the deposit-covered B10 copper-nickel alloy can be found both in abiotic and biotic conditions,and the pitting corrosion and uniform corrosion are further accelerated by SRB.There is a galvanic effect between the bare and deposit-covered specimens in the presence of SRB in the early stage but the galvanic effect after 5 d of testing can be neglected due to the low OCP difference values.

文摘In the present investigation, electroless Ni-Cu-P/n-TiN composite coating was prepared using alkaline citrate-based bath. X-ray diffraction （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy（SEM）, energy-dispersive spectroscopy（EDS）, electrochemical measurements, weight loss tests and Raman spectrometer were used to character the properties of the coating. As the Cu content increased from 7.3 wt% to 24.8 wt%, the corrosion current density of the Ni-Cu-P/n-TiN coating decreased from 10.80 to 4.34 ~tA. And the inclusion of Cu in NiP alloy resulted in refinement and less porosity in microstructure. The addition of TiN resulted in a slight decline in anti-corrosion property of the coating. As the mass loss test showed, Ni-24.8%Cu-P exhibited perfect corrosion resistance. Studies by Raman spectroscopy on coatings proved that Cu（II）3（PO4）（OH）3, Cu（OH）2 and CuO were examined while no compound of nickel was found, and Cu exhibited preferred corrosion in saline solution, providing cathodic protection to Ni alloy.

文摘The corrosion properties of aluminum-lithium(Al-Li) alloys, which are potential materials used to construct for tanks of liquid rockets or missiles, are essential for safe propellant storage and transport. In order to manifest the corrosion resistance of the 2195 Al-Li alloy in practical propellant tanks filled with N2O4, the alloy was soaked in 30% nitric acid solution, an accelerating corrosion environment, to test its corrosion behavior. Scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and transmission electron microscopy(TEM)were used to characterize microstructure and corrosion morphology of the alloy. Focused ion beam(FIB),combined with SEM, was used to demonstrate localized corrosion features and the propagation of corrosion pathways beneath the alloy surface. It was found that the corrosion network was formed with most intergranular corrosion and sparse intragranular corrosion. Additionally, the distribution and number of intermetallic particles influenced the localized corrosion degree and the direction of corrosion pathways. Aggregated particles made corrosion pathways continuously and caused more severe corrosion. The results from this work were valid and useful to corrosion prevention and protection for storage safety on propellant tanks in N_(2)O_(4).

文摘Corrosion behaviors of P110 and N80 tubular steels in CO_(2) gas phase and supercritical(S-CO_(2))phase in a saturated water vapor environment were explored in corrosion weight loss experiments by SEM,EDS,XRD,XPS and cross-section analysis techniques.With the increase in CO_(2) partial pressure,the average corrosion rate increased first and then decreased.The average corrosion rate reached the maximum value under the near-critical pressure.When CO_(2) partial pressure further increased to be above the critical pressure,the average corrosion rate gradually decreased and local aggregation of molecules was weakened.

文摘This paper studied the influence of aging treatment on the corrosion behavior and mechanism of Mg-Y alloys with different Y content through corrosion mass loss test, electrochemical test and corrosion morphologies observation. Results show that the peak-aging times of Mg-（0.25, 2.5, 5, 8 and 15） Y alloys at 250 ℃ were 4, 6, 10, 12 and 16 h. The aging treatment reduced the corrosion resistance of Mg-Y alloys, and the corrosion resistance of Mg-Y alloys became worse with increasing of the aging time. The change magnitude of the open circuit potentials for Mg-（0.25, 2.5）Y alloys was greater than that of Mg-（5, 8 and 15）-Y alloys. The polarization curves of Mg （0.25, 2.5, 5, 8 and 15） Y alloys had the similar shape after aging treatment, and the slopes of the anodic branch were greater than those of the cathodic branches. After aging treatment, the corrosion modes of Mg-0.25Y and Mg-（2.5, 5, 8 and 15） Y alloys were uniform corrosion and pitting corrosion with small local deep corrosion.
文摘A new model considering corrosion property for grounding grids diagnosis is proposed,which provides reference solutions of ambiguous branches.The constraint total least square method based on singular value decomposition is adopted to improve the effectiveness of grounding grids' diagnosis algorithm.The improvement can weaken the influence of the model's error,which results from the differences between design paper and actual grid.Its influence on touch and step voltages caused by the interior resistance of conductors is taken into account.Simulation results show the validity of this approach.
文摘The influence of chemical composition on corrosion resistance of AZ91D magnesium alloys ingots has been investigated. Mass loss method was applied to evaluate the corrosion resistance of AZ91D alloys and the data were analyzed by multiple regression. The results show that the corrosion resistance of this alloy can be improved by increasing Al, Zn and Mn in a certain degree, and will drop with increasing Si and heavy metals (Fe, Cu, Ni). It is found that ingots received from company F should be listed into unusable materials in terms of the corrosion resistance, while among the five suppliers, the only local company E supplied excellent AZ91D magnesium alloy ingots with the best corrosion resistance.

文摘Corrosion has always been a difficult problem that troubles and restricts the application and development ofengineering materials.By endowing coatings on metal surfaces with polymer material,it is possible to protect othermaterials from factors including acid and alkali,water vapor,bacteria.Therefore,it is necessary to summarize theresearch progress of polymer materials in the field of pollution and corrosion prevention in recent years.This articlesummarizes four types of polymer materials with good weather resistance:polyurethane(PU),polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS),polyvinylidene fluoride(PVDF),and polyvinylidene chloride(PVDC).These four polymer materials aresuitable for making polymer anti-corrosion or anti-fouling materials and each has its own characteristics.PU can firmlyadhere to various substrates,effectively protecting and extending their lifespan,but the environmentally friendly varietiescurrently used,namely water-borne polyurethanes(WPU),generally have poor mechanical properties.PDMS is nontoxicand has excellent hydrophobicity,but its static anti-fouling ability is insufficient when applied in the field of antifouling.PVDF has good chemical resistance and high mechanical properties,good UV resistance making it suitable foroutdoor use like in the marine environment.However,PVDF lacks flexibility after molding and its manufacturing cost isrelatively high.PVDC has excellent water vapor barrier properties,but poor adhesion to metal material surfaces.Therefore,researchers need to modify these four polymers when using them to solve the problem of corrosion orbiofouling.The article will review the research progress of four types of polymers in recent years from the perspectivesof anti-corrosion,anti-fouling,and a strategy named as self-healing that is beneficial for protecting polymer surfacesfrom mechanical damage,and summarize the modification methods adopted by researchers when applying thesematerials.Finally,a summary of the application and the prospects of these polymer materials are presented.
