The microbiological influenced corrosion (MIC) behavior of the low alloy steel with granular-Zn-epoxy and flaky-Zn-epoxy coating in the sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) solution was investigated with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), X-rays diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) etc. Results show that the protection effect of the flaky-Zn coating specimen is much better than the granular-Zn coating one. The dissolution of zinc is more severe in granular-Zn coating than in flaky-Zn coating when the specimen immersed in the SRB solution. The shielding property of flaky zinc is much higher than granular zinc in the coating. The flaky-Zn coating is much more compact than the granular-Zn coating and therefore the property of anti-infiltration is much better. We may conclude that the flaky-Zn coating exhibited more favorable corrosion resistance property than the granular one.
The microbiological influenced corrosion (MIC) behavior of the low alloy steel with or
without Zn-rich epoxy coating in the sterilized medium and sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB)
solution was investigated with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), scanning electron
microscope (SEM) and X-rays diffraction (XRD). Results show that the bacteria in the marine
environment affect the corrosion behavior of the ship plate steel and the corrosion resistance of
specimen coated with Zn-rich epoxy was improved greatly. The coating protected the test steel
effectively in the microbial environment with the cathodic protection in the earlier period and
physical barrier protection in the later period.
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 title compound, [Cu3(C4H6N2O2)2(C5H5N)7](ClO4)2, is a trinuclear CuII complex bridged by two glyoximate groups. The central Cu and the pyridine N atom bonded to it lie on a twofold axis. The geometry around each Cu atom is a distorted square pyramid.
The microbiological influenced corrosion (MIC) behavior of the low alloy steel with Zn-rich epoxy coating and micaceous iron oxide epoxy coating in the sterilized medium and sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) solution was investigated by using both full-coated and nicked-coated specimens. Results show that for steel coated with Zn-rich epoxy, the corrosion resistance of both full-coated and nicked-coated specimens was improved obviously. The Zn-rich epoxy coating protected the test steel effectively in the microbial environment with the cathodic protection in the earlier period and physical barrier protection in the later period. For steel coated with micaceous iron oxide epoxy coating, the corrosion resistance of full coated specimens was improved greatly. However, for nicked-coated specimens, corrosion was aggravated because the small anodic area around the nick accelerated the corrosion. It is concluded that the basic low alloy steel may be effectively protected by the micaceous iron oxide epoxy coating only when the steel is perfectly coated with the coating, breakage must be avoided.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
