Study on corrosion behaviour of buried pipeline in saline soil is presented, the pipeline is protected by coating and impressed current cathodic protection system. In this work, spectrometric and spectroscopic techniques were used to characterise the pipe/coating/soil interfaces. The results show the coating/pipe interface forms corrosion products including the following phases: magnetite, goethite, akaganeite and hematite. However, the main phases found at coating/soil interface are magnetite and ferric ion. The behavior is consistent with the corrosion of carbon steel in soil with oxygen and chloride ion. The reaction paths are proposed under the conditions of deteriorated coating, cathodic protection, saline soil and seasonal fluctuations.
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.
