The application of mixed corrosion inhibitor (CI), which is an equimolar composition of oleoyl sarcosinate (SOS) and sodium flufenamate (SFF), for protection of D16 aluminum alloy from atmospheric corrosion has been studied. The polarization measurements used to assess the effectiveness of preliminary passivation of the alloy with solutions of SOS, SFF and their composition showed significant advantages of mixed CI. The XPS method was used to study features of CI adsorption on the surface of D16 alloy. It has been established that upon adsorption of SOS and SFF separately a monolayer is formed, firmly bonded to the alloy surface, thickness of which is not exceeding 2.6—3.2 nm. After the joint adsorption of these CI, the layer thickness reaches 12—20 nm. The composition of this layer includes a considerable amount of Al3+ ions (~20%) related to their compounds with SFF and SOS, as well as to aluminum hydroxides. A possible mechanism for the formation of such a protective layer is proposed. The results of corrosion tests in a humid atmosphere with daily water condensation on samples of D16 alloy confirmed the high protective ability of the mixed CI film.

Effects of actual marine atmospheric precorrosion and prefatigue on the fatigue property of 7085-T7452 aluminum alloy were investigated by using the methods of marine atmospheric outdoor exposure tests and constant amplitude axial fatigue tests. Marine atmospheric corrosion morphologies, fatigue life, and fatigue fractography were analyzed. After three months of outdoor exposure, both pitting corrosion and intergranular corrosion (IGC) occurred, while the latter was the dominant marine atmospheric corrosion mode. Marine atmospheric precorrosion could result in a dramatical decrease in the fatigue life of the as-received 7085-T7452 aluminum alloy, while selective prefatigue can improve the total fatigue life of the precorroded specimen. The mechanism of the actual marine atmospheric corrosion and its effects on the fatigue life of the 7085-T7452 aluminum alloy were also discussed.

This article deals with the topic of atmospheric corrosion. Atmospheric corrosion causes damage to nearly 80% of all existing steel structures. The main parameters of atmospheric corrosion are the time of wetness (TOW), air temperature and aggressive corrosive agents such as chlorides, sulfur dioxide and others. Currently, low alloy steels with improved atmospheric corrosion resistance called weathering steels are used for the steel structures located in outdoor environment. A protective layer of corrosion products is created on the steel surface and this layer can reduce continuation of corrosion of steel. The time of wetness together with the effect of aggressive corrosive agents are various for surfaces oriented vertically or horizontally. Experimental tests of atmospheric weathering steel were carried out to monitor the impact of location and position of surface on the different constructions. These tests allow monitoring the development of corrosion products in real exposures. The article presents a part of the research, which includes monitoring the development of the thickness of corrosion products with regard to the position on the structure. Research is developed to refine of prediction models with the aim of improving determination of corrosion losses during the service life of the structure. Second part of these experiments is dedicated to measuring the deposition rate of chlorides. Chlorides have a corrosive impact on the steel surface. Under normal conditions the chlorides does not create suitable environment for the development of a protective layer of corrosion products.

One of the factors influencing traffic safety is the uninterrupted power supply of interlocking devices. As a rule transmission of electric energy is carried out using aluminum wires. In order to assess the reliability of power lines in the work, research was carried out on the influence of ozone on corrosion of aluminum in a humid atmosphere and acidic medium. It was found that the presence of oxygen dissolved in acetic acid leads to anode currents increase, while at crossover ozone, cathode currents increase by an order of magnitude and 2-3 times the anode decreases; the corrosion potential of an Ecor shifts to the positive side at 0.15V. The decrease in the density of anode currents in the presence of ozone proceeds due to the growth of the thickness of the aluminum oxide film. According to the Auger-spectra, the film is increased by 3-4 times compared with the nonzonized medium, due to which the corrosion resistance of aluminum Кm increases from 0.066 to 0.025 g/(m2·h). The rate of formation of oxides depends on the concentration of oxidants in the solution, and on their oxidative activity. According to calculations of thermodynamic factors that determine the preferred route of oxidation, the probability of formation of oxides in the presence of ozone is significantly higher. Local destruction of the protective layer occurs mainly in defective places and places of local increase in pH of the electrode layer. Investigation of the cyclic polarization of a sample of aluminum, pre-cathode activated by a current of 1 mA/cm2 density, showed the presence of hysteresis, which decreases in the next 2-3 cycles. In this case, the exterior of the aluminum shifts to (0.10 ÷ 0.15) V is more positive and the corrosion rate is reduced, which indicates the formation of an oxide film in which irreversible changes occur. The change in the inclination of the polarization curves indicates that the cathodic reaction is delayed and is associated with the change in the structure of the surface layer of the electrode and the diffusion restrictions of ozone recovery.

In this paper, a novel method combining electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and phase shift was used to systematically study the effect of corrosion inhibitor (sodium succinate, sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate, and new corrosion inhibitor, namely, bis [2-amino-3-(dodecyl dimethyl quaternary ammonium) propyl]-propylamine dichloro) on crack initiation and propagation of aluminum alloy during the slow strain rate tensile process. Using a variety of characterization methods to verify the feasibility of using the new method for in-situ prediction, Kramers–Kronig transformations have been used to validate the experimental data obtained with the EIS measurements. The corrosion inhibition mechanism of these three kinds of inhibitors in the SSRT process was analyzed.
