The components in slurry pump suffer serious corrosion and abrasion in the phosphorus fertilizer manufacturing process because they undergo corrosion of H3PO4 medium and impact of particles at the same time. Presently, High chromium cast irons are often used to produce the components in slurry pump. In order to reveal the corrosive law, the corrosion properties of high chromium cast iron with 26wt.%Cr content (Cr26) were tested under different H3PO4 medium concentration conditions. Using back-propagation (BP) neural network, the non-linear relationship between the corrosion weight losses (W) and H3PO4 concentration, corrosion time (C, t) is established on the base of the dealing with experimental data. The results show that the well-trained BP neural network can predict the wear weight loss precisely according to H3PO4 concentration and corrosion time. The prediction results reveal that corrosion weight loss rises linearly with increasing corrosion time. The H3PO4 concentration has obvious effect on corrosion property. When H3PO4 concentration is lower than about 0.5mol/L, high chromium cast iron has well resistance to H3PO4 corrosion. However, the corrosion resistance of high chromium cast iron rapidly decreases when the H3PO4 concentration exceed about 0.8 mol/L. It is suggest the high chromium cast iron be used under the condition of H3PO4 concentration of lower 0.8 mol/L.

The corrosion property of high chromium cast iron was test under different phosphoric acid medium concentration. On the base of experimental data, the binary equation model of corrosion weight loss (W) versus phosphoric acid concentration and corrosion time (c, t) was built using multiple regression analysis, which can predict corrosion property of high chromium cast iron effectively. The prediction results show that the corrosion weight loss rises lineally with increasing corrosion time, and the corrosion rate rises quadratically with increasing phosphoric acid concentration. The corrosion failure mechanism is that chromium composite carbides (M7C3) stand out of matrixes surface after the matrixes composed of martensite and austenite are corroded firstly, then the M7C3 carbides drop out of matrixes when the matrixes can not wrap M7C3 carbides, resulting gradual corrosion of high chromium cast iron. The prediction values have sufficiently mined the basic domain knowledge of corrosion process of high chromium cast iron under phosphoric acid medium. Therefore, a new way of predicting corrosion property according to corrosion conditions was provided by the authors.

The components in slurry pump suffer serious corrosion abrasion under H3PO4 medium. Presently, High chromium cast irons are often used to produce the components in slurry pump. New high vanadium high speed steel(HVHSS) has been proved to be a more excellent wear resistance material than high chromium cast irons under abrasive wear and rolling wear. In order to apply HVHSS in slurry pump to replace high chromium cast irons, the corrosion properties of HVHSS were tested under different H3PO4 medium concentration conditions. Using back-propagation (BP) neural network, the non-linear relationship between the corrosion weight losses (W) and H3PO4 concentration, corrosion time (C, t) is established on the base of the dealing with experimental data. The results show that the well-trained BP neural network can predict the wear weight loss precisely according to H3PO4 concentration and corrosion time. The prediction results reveal that the corrosion time and H3PO4 concentration have obvious effect on corrosion weight loss of HVHSS. And corrosion weight loss takes on linear relationship with corrosion time and H3PO4 concentration, respectively.

The effect of electric current pulse on the microstructure and corrosion resistance of hypereutectic high chromium cast iron was explored. The morphology of carbides in solidification microstructure was observed by an optical microscope and a scanning electron microscope and the composition was determined by an electron probe micro-analyzer. The microhardness of primary carbides and corrosion resistance of samples were also compared. Under the active of electric current pulse, the microstructure of hypereutectic high chromium cast iron was homogenized and its performance improved accordingly. On treatment by electric current, the morphology of primary carbides changed from thick long rods to hexagonal blocks or granular structures. The interlayer spacing of eutectic carbide decreased from ~26.3 μm to ~17.8 μm. Size statistics showed that the average diameter of primary carbide decreased from ~220 μm to ~60 μm. As a result, microhardness increased from 1412 HV to 1511 HV. No obvious microcrack propagation was found at the microindentation sites. The average length of microcracks decreased from ~20.7 μm to ~5.7 μm. Furthermore, corrosion resistance was remarkably enhanced. The average corrosion rate decreased from 2.65 mg/cm2·h to 1.74 mg/cm2·h after pulse current treatment.
