报告摘要:

Weathering steel, developed in 1930s, was a low-alloyed steel with high cost-effectiveness and good corrosion resistance. However, conventional weathering steel cannot be applied to marine environment since the formation of protective rust layer on its surface is inhibited by the chloride ions. In this study, rare earth (RE) element was added to weathering steel to improve its corrosion resistance. Both the corrosion initiation and long-term corrosion performance in different chloride concentration were investigated by multifarious analytical technique, such as exposure test, electrochemical measurement, 3d laser scanning microscope, scanning electron microscope/energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM/EDS) and Raman spectroscopy. Results show that although RE elements can refine grains and modify inclusions, the corrosion initiation of weathering steel with RE addition cannot be inhibited since the dissolution of grains with higher corrosion activity contributes to most of the weight loss at this stage. Besides, the long-term corrosion performance of weathering steel with RE addition, which can be attributed to its rust layer with compact and dense structures. Considering that the corrosion initiation stage is such a short period compared to the steady-corrosion state during weathering steel’s service life, it can be concluded that the RE addition can improve the corrosion resistance of weathering steel, especially in marine atmospheric environments.

耐候钢是一种20世纪30年代开发的,具有高性价比和较好耐蚀性的低合金钢。然而,由于表面保护性锈层的形成受到氯离子的阻碍,传统耐候钢不能被用于海洋环境。为了改善耐候钢的耐腐蚀性,本研究向耐候钢中加入了稀土元素。在不同氯浓度环境下,采用多种分析技术(暴露试验,电化学测试,三维激光扫描显微镜,扫描电镜/能谱,拉曼光谱)研究了钢材的腐蚀初始和长期腐蚀行为。结果表明,尽管稀土元素能够细化晶粒并改善夹杂物,但并不能遏制耐候钢腐蚀的发生,这是因为具有更高腐蚀活性的晶粒溶解是该阶段质量损失的主要来源。此外,稀土耐候钢表面能形成致密的锈层,使其具有更好的长期耐腐蚀性。考虑到相比于耐候钢服役寿命中的稳定腐蚀阶段,腐蚀初始阶段只占据极短的一段周期,故可以得到结论:向耐候钢内添加稀土元素整体上提高了其耐腐蚀性,尤其是在海洋大气环境中。
