The microbiological influenced corrosion (MIC) behaviors of the ship plate steel directly exposed in different medias (the sterile seawater, the ferrous bacteria solution and the sulfate-reducing bacteria solution) were investigated with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Corrosion potential, electrochemical impedance and micrographs of specimens under different experimental conditions were obtained. Results show that the FB and SRB in the marine environment affect the corrosion behavior of the ship plate steel greatly. The corrosion process in FB and SRB environment was controlled by both bacteria and corrosion products. The mechanism of MIC is discussed.

The microbiological influenced corrosion (MIC) behavior of a marine pipeline Cu-Ni alloy in the sterile seawater and sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) solution was investigated. Results show that severe pitting corrosion appeared on the specimens in the SRB solution. The corrosion potential of specimen in the SRB solution was much lower than that in the sterile seawater and the polarization resistance of specimen in the SRB solution decreased quickly after a period immersion and became much lower than that in the sterile seawater. Besides, the results of EDS and XRD show that the content of element Ni and Fe of the Cu-Ni alloy decreased greatly and the high content of element S appeared after 30 days immersion in the SRB solution. It was concluded that the SRB accelerated the corrosion process of the Cu-Ni alloy greatly. The MIC mechanism of the alloy in marine environment is discussed.

The MIC behavior of the ship plate steel specimen with LaCl3-Zn epoxy coating in the sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) solution was investigated in this paper. The variation of corrosion potential over time of different specimens in SRB solution show that the corrosion potential of the specimen with LaCl3-Zn epoxy coating was obviously higher than the Zn-epoxy coating, suggesting that the LaCl3-Zn epoxy coating may offer better protection. The variations of lgflg |Z|=4.5 and fhwith time show that the property of anti-infiltration and corrosion resistance of LaCl3-Zn coating is much better than the ones of Zn-epoxy coating. Results also show that more sulfides and corrosion products of LaCl3-Zn epoxy coating were produced which increased the shielding property of the coating. The experimental results of XRD and SEM are in good agreement with the ones of Ecorr,and EIS, etc. They all show that the LaCl3-Zn epoxy coating exhibits more favorable corrosion resistance property than the Zn-epoxy coating. It is obvious that coating the ship plate steel with LaCl3-Zn epoxy is an effective and promising method against the attack of SRB in marine environment.

In this study, the microstructural evolutions and corrosion resistance of aluminium/copper joint fabricated through explosive welding process have been thoroughly investigated, while stand-off distance was variable. Microstructural analyses demonstrate that, regardless of grain refinement in the welding boundary, increasing the stand-off space is followed by a higher thickness of the localized melting pool. X-Ray diffraction (XRD) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) analyses recognized the binary intermetallic layers as a combination of Al2Cu and AlCu. Polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) corrosion tests revealed that a higher stand-off distance resulted in the increment of corrosion potential, current rate, and concentration gradient at the interface owing to the remarkable kinetic energy of the collision, which impaired corrosion resistance.

Corrosion behavior of steel Q235 was investigated during natural evaporation in soils with and without sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) by microbiological analysis, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDXA) and electron-probe X-ray microanalysis (EPMA). The results show that during natural evaporation, oxygen content increases, amounts of SRB decrease, and the corrosion rates of steel Q235 increase with decreasing humidity of soils with and without SRB. Increments of the corrosion rates are much bigger in soils with SRB than those without SRB.

Corrosion Of Steel

The electrochemical properties of various iron oxide scales on steel exposed in saturated calcium hydroxide solutions were investigated. The iron oxide scales were manufactured by different heat treatments and grinding processes and characterized using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope. The electrochemical properties of the scales were assessed by measuring the corrosion potential and using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and potentiodynamic polarization curves. It was found that wustite and magnetite are less noble compared to hematite but are more effective as cathodic surfaces. The results show that the electrochemical properties of the mill scale can be an important contributing factor in the corrosion of steel in concrete.

Purpose – The purpose of this study is to explore the influence of the sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) on the corrosion of cupronickel. Design/methodology/approach – Tests monitoring the change in free corrosion potential, linear polarization resistance and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and examination using the scanning electron microscope and energy spectrum analysis were used to investigate the corrosion behavior of cupronickel in blank medium and in media inoculated with SRB to explore the influence of the SRB on the corrosion behavior of cupronickel alloy. Findings – The results show that SRB can destroy the surface oxide film of cupronickel and significantly reduce the free corrosion potential and polarization resistance of the cupronickel, causing the cupronickel to corrode significantly. Originality/value – SRB are widely found in the water supply system and is one of the important factors inducing microbial corrosion. This paper verified that SRB promote cupronickel corrosion and explored the influence and mechanism of attack.

AbstractIn this work, Zn-Ni alloys have been deposited on steel from sulfate bath, by electrodeposition method. The effect of Zn content on deposits properties was studied by cyclic voltammetry (CV), chronoaperometry (CA), linear stripping voltammetry (ALSV) and diffraction (XRD) and scanning electronic microscopy (SEM). The corrosion behavior in 3.5 wt. NaCl solution was examined using anodic polarization test and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. X-ray diffraction of show that Zn-Ni alloys structure is composed of δ phase and γ phase, which increase with the decrease of Zn content in deposits. Results show that deposits obtained from bath less Zn2+ concentration exhibited better corrosion resistance.

In this work, Yttria (Y2O3) was successfully doped into tetragonal 3mol% yttria stabilized Zirconia (3YSZ) by high energy-mechanical milling to synthesize 8mol% yttria stabilized Zirconia (8YSZ) used as an electrolyte for high temperature solid oxide fuel cells (HT-SOFC). This work aims to evaluate the densification and ionic conductivity of the sintered electrolytes at 1650°C. The bulk density was measured according to ASTM C373-17. The powder morphology and the microstructure of the sintered electrolytes were analyzed via Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM). The chemical analysis was obtained with Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Also, X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to obtain structural information of the starting materials and the sintered electrolytes. The ionic conductivity was obtained through electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in the air as a function of temperatures at a frequency range of 100(mHz)-100(kHz). It is found that the 3YSZ has a higher density than the 8YSZ. The impedance analysis showed that the ionic conductivity of the prepared 8YSZ at 800°C is0.906 (S.cm) and it was 0.214(S.cm) of the 3YSZ. Besides, 8YSZ has a lower activation energy 0.774(eV) than that of the 3YSZ 0.901(eV). Thus, the prepared 8YSZ can be nominated as an electrolyte for the HT-SOFC.

The possibility of application of chitosan-modified zeolite as sorbent for Cu(II), Zn(II), Mn(II), and Fe(III) ions and their mixtures in the presence of N-(1,2-dicarboxyethyl)-D,L-aspartic acid, IDHA) under different experimental conditions were investigated. Chitosan-modified zeolite belongs to the group of biodegradable complexing agents used in fertilizer production. NaP1CS as a carrier forms a barrier to the spontaneous release of the fertilizer into soil. The obtained materials were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR); surface area determination (ASAP); scanning electron microscopy (SEM-EDS); X-ray fluorescence (XRF); X-ray diffraction (XRD); and carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen (CHN), as well as thermogravimetric (TGA) methods. The concentrations of Cu(II), Zn(II), Mn(II), and Fe(III) complexes with IDHA varied from 5–20 mg/dm3 for Cu(II), 10–40 mg/dm3 for Fe(III), 20–80 mg/dm3 for Mn(II), and 10–40 mg/dm3 for Zn(II), respectively; pH value (3–6), time (1–120 min), and temperature (293–333 K) on the sorption efficiency were tested. The Langmuir, Freundlich, Dubinin–Radushkevich, and Temkin adsorption models were applied to describe experimental data. The pH 5 proved to be appropriate for adsorption. The pseudo-second order and Langmuir models were consistent with the experimental data. The thermodynamic parameters indicate that adsorption is spontaneous and endothermic. The highest desorption percentage was achieved using the HCl solution, therefore, proving that method can be used to design slow-release fertilizers.

Electroslag Refining

Molybdenum (Mo) is an important alloying element in maraging steels. In this study, we altered the Mo concentration during the production of four cobalt-free maraging steels using an electroslag refining process. The microstructure of the four forged maraging steels was evaluated to examine phase contents by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. Additionally, we assessed the corrosion resistance of the newly developed alloys in 3.5% NaCl solution and 1 M H2SO4 solution through potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. Furthermore, we performed SEM and energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis after corrosion to assess changes in microstructure and Raman spectroscopy to identify the presence of phases on the electrode surface. The microstructural analysis shows that the formation of retained austenite increases with increasing Mo concentrations. It is found from corrosion study that increasing Mo concentration up to 4.6% increased the corrosion resistance of the steel. However, further increase in Mo concentration reduces the corrosion resistance.
