Sensing the Instant Corrosivity of Haze Using Electrochemical Probes by Electrochemical Noise Technique

Abstract

Electrochemical noise (EN) was used to study the corrosivity of haze under Tianjin's urban atmosphere by using two electrochemical corrosion probes made by T91 and Q235B steels. Experimental results indicate that temperature, relative humidity and concentrations of pollutants (PM10, PM2.5, SO 2 , NO 2 and O 3 ) can affect the corrosion of T91 and Q235B atmospheric corrosion monitoring probes. However, the atmospheric humidity has a major effect on corrosion activities. The corrosivity of haze under low temperature and high relative humidity has a high level, which can promote the corrosion of T91 and Q235B probes; the effect of atmospheric pollutant concentration on atmospheric corrosivity is not apparent due to theirs low concentrations. T91 probe is suitable for long term corrosion monitoring, while Q235B probe is suitable for short time monitoring and has high detection precision.

A novel method for identifying corrosion types and transitions based on Adaboost and electrochemical noise

“…All electrochemical tests are measured in Faradi cage. The reference electrode (RE), working electrode (WE) and counter electrode (CE) were all used Q235 steel samples (MA et al , 2017; Arellano-Pérez et al , 2019). The frequency was set to 2 Hz.…”

Frontiers and Challenges in Electrochemical Corrosion Monitoring; Surface and Downhole Applications

“…Ma et al [ 72 ] also used EN to analyze the corrosion of haze under the atmosphere of urban Tianjin by using two electrochemical corrosion probes made by Q235B and T91 steels. Experimental results indicated that relative humidity, temperature and concentrations of contaminants could affect the corrosion of Q235B and T91.…”
