The purpose of this research is to propose a method for evaluating the time-dependent corrosion behavior of carbon steel plates using an atmospheric corrosion monitor (ACM) corrosion sensor consisting of a Fe/Ag-galvanic couple. Atmospheric exposure tests were carried out on steel plates for periods of 6, 12, and 24-months on the island of Okinawa in Japan. The Specimens were mounted on racks at angles of 0, 45 and 90 to the horizontal to obtain corrosion data in various corrosive environments. In addition, the environments of the skyward- and groundward-facing surfaces of the specimens were monitored using ACM sensors. The sensor outputs were recorded during the exposure tests.

The rate of carbon steel in SO2 Atmospheric Corrosion was modeled by grey model GM (1, 1). The accuracy and rationality of prediction model have been evaluated. The result indicated that the model had a better fitting accuracy. By comparing the calculated values with a predicted atmospheric corrosion rate of carbon steel after 264h, it showed that its relative error has been just 0.5619% which had higher forecast reliability.

Purpose – This paper aims to investigate the corrosion behaviour of carbon steel in the Mauritian atmosphere over a three-year period. Atmospheric corrosion is a serious problem in Mauritius. Design/methodology/approach – Carbon steel samples were exposed outdoors at various sites. Mass loss analysis was performed to determine the corrosion behaviour of the metal over the exposure period. Scanning electron microscopy and Raman tests were performed to investigate the formation of the corrosion products on the carbon steel surface. Findings – It was found that the corrosion loss at two of the sites considered did not vary clearly according to the bilogarithmic law. Time of wetness was found to be a main factor affecting atmospheric corrosion in Mauritius. The corrosivity of the atmosphere was found to lie between categories C3 and C4, according to ISO 9223. Originality/value – The results can be of essential help to the construction industry, especially as steel buildings are becoming very common in Mauritius. Moreover, as Mauritius is a tropical island, the results obtained can be useful in other tropical islands.
