The paper provides a review about the corrosion ,corrosion protection and material properties of support structures for offshore wind turbines. Firstly, the current state of corrosion protection research on offshore wind turbines is discussed. Secondly, types of the marine corrosion environment, corrosivity categories and material properties are summarized in a systematic way.Finally, practical solutions to the corrosion protection of support structures, including cathodic protection ,coatings and silane impregnation, are discussed.

The service life of reinforced concrete structure has been greatly influenced by corrosion of steel, however, impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP) system is able to control corrosion of steel, especially which is corroded by chloride along the coast areas. In this work protection current and related technical parameter in both intake and outfall structure has been investigated in the seawater cooling structure along the coast area of Persian Gulf in Saudi Arabia. The most suitable protection current density provided by ICCP system is 5mA/m2for reinforced concrete structure in the severe marine corrosion area in Middle East.

The study examines the electrochemical properties of a coating based on water sodium silicate and pure zinc dust (ZSC, working title - TTL-VN) using the Electrochemical Impedance Spectra (EIS) with AutoLAB PGSTAT204N. The system consists of three electrodes: Ag/AgCl (SCE) reference electrode in 3 M solution of KCl, auxiliary electrode Pt (8x8 mm) and working electrodes (carbon steel with surface treatment up to Sa 2.5) for determination of corrosion potential (Ecorr) and calculation of equivalent electric circuits used for explanation of impedance measurement results. It was shown that electrochemical method is effective for study of corrosion characteristics of ZSC on steel. We proposed an interpretation of the deterioration over time of the ability of zinc particles in paint to provide cathodic protection for carbon steel. The results show that the value of Ecorr is between -0,9 and -1,1 V / SCE for ten days of diving. This means that there is an electrical contact between the zinc particles, which provides good cathodic protection for the steel substrate and most of the zinc particles were involved in the osmosis process. The good characteristics of the TTL-VN coating during immersion in a 3,5% NaCl solution can also be explained by the preservation of corrosive zinc products in the coating, which allows the creation of random barrier properties.
