The purpose of this study was to evaluate the corrosion damage of large diameter metallic pipes buried in reclaimed land due to the corrosion effect by soil, and to propose a method of installing metal pipes in the reclaimed land. The results are as follow. First, the soil of the reclaimed land was gray clay, the soil specific resistance indicating soil corrosiveness was at least 120 Ω-cm, the pH was weakly acidic(5.04 to 5.60), the redox potential was at least 62 mV, the moisture content was at most 48.8%, and chlorine ions and sulfate ions were up to 4,706.1 mg/kg and 420 mg/kg. Therefore, the overall soil corrosivity score was up to 19, and the external corrosion effect seems to be very large. Second, the condition of straight part of pipes was in good condition, but most of KP joints were affected by corrosion at a severe level. The reason for this seems to be that KP joints accelerated corrosion due to stress and crevice corrosion in addition to galvanic corrosion in the same environment. Third, as a result of evaluating correlations of each item that affects the corrosion on the external part, the lower the soil resistivity and redox potential, the greater the effect on the KP joints corrosion, and the moisture content, chloride ion, and sulfate ion, the higher the value, the greater the effect on the corrosion of KP joints. In addition, among soil corrosion items, the coefficient of determination of soil resistivity with corrosion of KP joints was the highest with 0.6439~0.7672. Fourth, when installing metal pipes or other accessories because the soil of the reclaimed land is highly corrosive, it is necessary to apply a corrosion preventive method to extend the life of pipes and prevent leakage accidents caused by corrosion damage to the joint.

KAERI에서는 파이로프로세싱에서 발생하는 금속폐기물의 부피 및 무게 감량을 위해 고방사성 장반감기 핵종을 포함하는 anode sludge내 NM의 고화매질로써 폐피복관과 첨가금속을 재활용하는 연구를 진행하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Cr 함량을 조절한 Zr-17Cr-8NM, Zr-22Cr-8NM, Zr-27Cr-8NM 합금을 유도용융을 통해 제조하였고, 전기화학적 부식시험을 실시하여 부 식특성을 평가하였다. 모든 조성에서 기존 연구 중인 Zr계 합금고화체 조성보다 우수한 부식특성을 나타냈다. 또한 Zr-22Cr- 8NM 시편의 부식시험 후 침출용액 조성 분석 결과, 500 mV 전압 조건 이하에서는 NM 침출이 없었고 이를 통해 우수한 화 학적 안정성을 갖는 합금고화체 조성을 확보하였다.

As wrought stainless steel, sintered stainless steel (STS) has excellent high-temperature anti-corrosion even at high temperature of 800ºC and exhibit corrosion resistance in air. The oxidation behavior and oxidation mechanism of the sintered 316L stainless was reported at the high temperature in our previous study. In this study, the effects of additives on high-temperature corrosion resistances were investigated above 800ºC at the various oxides (SiO2, Al2O3, MgO and Y2O3) added STS respectively as an oxidation inhibitor. The morphology of the oxide layers were observed by SEM and the oxides phase and composition were confirmed by XRD and EDX. As a result, the weight of STS 316L sintered body increased sharply at 1000oC and the relative density of specimen decreased as metallic oxide addition increased. Compared with STS 316L sintered parts, weight change ratio corresponding to different oxidation time at 900oC and 1000oC, decreased gradually with the addition of metallic oxide. The best corrosion resistance properties of STS could be improved in case of using Y2O3. The oxidation rate was diminished dramatically by suppression the peeling on oxide layers at Y2O3 added sintered stainless steel.

순환전압전류법을 사용하여 전류-전압 곡선을 측정하였다. 전기화학적 특성과 금속의 표면상태간의 관계는 전자현미경(SEM)을 사용하여 조사하였다. 그리고 순환전압전류법에 의한 전기화학적 측정은 3 전극 시스템을 사용하였다. 측정 범위는 초기 포텐셜에서 -1350 mV까지 환원시키고, 연속적으로 1650 mV까지 산화시키고, 다시 초기지점으로 환원시켜 측정하였다. 스캔속도는 50, 100, 150, 200 및 250 mV/s를 선정하였다. 그 결과, 부식억제로 모노에탄올아민(MEA)을 사용하여 금속의 C-V 특성은 순환전압전류법으로부터 산화 전류에 기인한 비가역 공정으로 나타났다. 부식억제제로 MEA을 사용하였을 경우에는 전해질의 농도가 증가할수록 확산계수가 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 그리고 구리의 SEM 이미지를 보면, 전해질 농도를 증가시키면 표면부식은 증가하였다. 부식억제제로 1.0×10-3M MEA를 첨가시키면, 전해질 농도 0.1 N의 경우 확산계수가 상대적으로 커서 부식억제 효과가 적었다.

In this study, we investigated the C-V diagrams and metal surface related to the electrochemistry characterization of metal(nickel, SUS-304). We determined electrochemical measurement by using cyclic voltammetry with a three-electrode system. A measuring range was reduced from initial potential to -1350mV, continuously oxidized to 1650 mV and measured to the initial point. The scan rate were 50, 100, 150, 200 and 250 mV/s. As a result, the C-V characterization of metal using N,N-dimethylacetamide and N,N-dimethylformamide inhibitors appeared irreversible process caused by the oxidation current from the cyclic voltammogram. After adding organic corrosion inhibitors, adsorption film constituted, and the passive phenomena happened. According to the results by cyclic voltammetry method, it was revealed that the addition of inhibitors containing amide functional group enhances the corrosion resistance properties.

A study on the corrosion inhibition of metals is important in many industrial applications (carbon steel, copper, aluminum, SUS 304, nickel). In this study, we investigated the C-V diagrams related to the surface corrosion of metals. It was observed through the SEM that the surface corrosion state of the various metals had the corrosion potential by the scan rate and the organic inhibitor containing an amine group. We determined to measure cyclic voltammetry using the three-electrode system. The measurement of oxidation and reduction ranged from -1350mV to 1650mV. The scan rate was 50, 100, 150, and 200mV/s. It turned out that the C-V characterization of SUS 304 was irreversible process caused by the oxidation current from the cyclic voltammogram. After adding organic inhibitors, the adsorption film was constituted, and the passive phenomena happened. As a result, it was revealed that the inhibition effect of metal corrosion depends on the molecular interaction, and the interaction has influence on the adsorption complex.

Chromium nitride (CrN) samples with two different layer structures (multilayer and single layer) were coated on bipolar plates of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) using the reactive sputtering method. The effects with respect to layer structure on corrosion resistance and overall cell performance were investigated. A continuous and thin chromium nitride layer (Cr0.48 N0.52) was formed on the surface of the SUS 316L when the nitrogen flow rate was 10 sccm. The electrochemical stability of the coated layers was examined using the potentiodynamic and potentiostatic methods in the simulated corrosive circumstances of the PEMFC under 80˚C. Interfacial contact resistance (ICR) between the CrN coated sample and the gas diffusion layer was measured by using Wang's method. A single cell performance test was also conducted. The test results showed that CrN coated SUS316L with multilayer structure had excellent corrosion resistance compared to single layer structures and single cell performance results with 25 cm2 in effective area also showed the same tendency. The difference of the electrochemical properties between the single and multilayer samples was attributed to the Cr interlayer layer, which improved the corrosion resistance. Because the coating layer was damaged by pinholes, the Cr layer prevented the penetration of corrosive media into the substrate. Therefore, the CrN with a multilayer structure is an effective coating method to increase the corrosion resistance and to decrease the ICR for metallic bipolar plates in PEMFC.

The purpose of this experiment was to find out the effects on metal corrosion of 2 types of tree, 7 types of wood based products and 4 types of cement that is currently being used as internal museum materials. By using the Oddy test as a corrosion test, with the materials that are used in the museum and the metal test pieces(Gilding, Silver, Iron, Bronze, Copper) are exposed in a high temperature( 60℃ ) and humidity for 28 days. After 28 days, we compare and analysis the difference between the metal test piece that was used before and after the test. We found that gilding and bronze did not occur corrosions on the surface but iron(Fe)and copper(Cu) also silver(Ag) had corrosions on the surface in different forms.

유도 용해후 열기계적 처리를 거친 3종류의 Al3Ti-Cr합금, 즉 Al67Ti25Cr8, Al66Ti24Cr10 및 Al59Ti26Cr15에 대해 2.5% NaCl 용액 내에 부삭시험과 1000, 1100 및 1200˚C에서의 고온 산화시험을 실시하였다. 전기화학적 평가결과에서 Cr조성이 증가함에 따라 국부부식에 대한 내식성이 증가하였으며, 부동태 피막의 취성파괴를 방지하였다. XPS결과는 Al3Ti-Cr합금의 부동태 피막은 주로 Al2O3로 구성되어 있으며, TiO2 및 Cr2O3도 공존하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 고온 내산화성은 모든 시편이 전체적으로 뛰어난 내산화성을 지니고 있었는데, 구체적으로는 Al59Ti26Cr15, Al66Ti24Cr10 및 Al67Ti25Cr8의 순으로 증가하였다. 이는 합금내의 Al 함량이 증가할수록 Al2O3보호피막의 형성이 용이하였기 때문이었다.

We used Cu as a representative of metals to be directly adsorbed on the bare Si surface and studied its removal DHF, DHF-H2O2 and BHF solution. It has been found that Cu ion in DHF adheres on every Si wafer surface that we used in our study (n, p, n+, p+) especially on the n+-Si surface. The DHF-H2O2 solution is found to be effective in removing metals featuring high electronegativity such as Cu from the p-Si and n-Si wafers. Even when the DHF-H2O2 solution has Cu ions at the concentration of 1ppm, the solution is found effective in cleaning the wafer. In the case the n+-Si and p+-Si wafers, however, their surfaces get contaminated with Cu When Cu ion of 10ppb remains in the DHF-H2O2 solution. When BHF is used, Cu in BHF is more likely to contaminate the n+-Si wafer. It is also revealed that the surfactant added to BHF improve wettability onto p-Si, n-Si and p+-Si wafer surface. This effect of the surfactant, however, is not observed on the n+-Si wafer and is increased when it is immersed in the DHF-H2O2 solution for 10min. The rate of the metallic contamination on the n+-Si wafer is found to be much higher than on the other Si wafers. In order to suppress the metallic contamination on every type of Si surface below 1010atoms/cm2, the metallic concentration in ultra pure water and high-purity DHF which is employed at the final stage of the cleaning process must be lowered below the part per trillion level. The DHF-H2O2 solution, however, degrades surface roughness on the substrate with the n+ and p+ surfaces. In order to remove metallic impurities on these surfaces, there is no choice at present but to use the NH4OH-H2O2-H2O and HCl-H2O2-H2O cleaning.

Development of appropriate construction technology at frozen soil environments for developing resources is essential.

방사성 폐기물을 지하에 장기 보관하는 금속 용기에 관한 생지화학적 부식 특성을 알아보기 위해 주철과 구리로 된 금속재료를 환원조건 하에서 디설프리칸스 황산염환원미생물과 3개월간 반응시켰다. 금속재료의 화학적/광물학적 변화를 알아보기 위해 주기적으로 용존 금속이온들의 농도를 측정하였으며, 실험이 종료된 이후 금속 시편 및 표면 이차생성물들을 전자현미경을 이용하여 분석하였다. 디설프리칸스가 없는 조건에서는 금속재료의 부식이 매우 미약하였으나, 미생물이 있는 경우에는 부식이 상대적으로 컸다. 관찰된 생지화학적 부식 산물은 주로 맥키나와이트와 황화구리 같은 검은색의 금속황화물이었으며, 표면에서 쉽게 분리되거나 콜로이드화되어 부유하였다. 특히, 구리 시편의 경우 용액 상에 용존 철이 존재할 때 세균에 의한 구리 부식의 가속화가 관찰되었는데, 이는 구리 표면에 다른 종의 황화철이 성장하면서 구리 간의 결속력을 약화시켰기 때문인 것으로 보인다.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of Ca(OH)2 and CO2 additions on the corrosion of metal coupons (ductile iron, galvanized steel, copper and stainless steel). Corrosion rate and released metal ion concentration of ductile iron and galvanized steel was decreased by adjusting alkalinity, calcium hardness and pH with Ca(OH)2 & CO2 additions named CCPP (Calcium Carbonate Precipitation Potential) index control process. But the effects of Ca(OH)2 & CO2 additions on copper and stainless steel were less than those on ductile iron and galvanized steel. When ductile iron coupon was exposed to water treated with Ca(OH)2 & CO2 additions, the main components of corrosion product formed on its surface were CaCO3 and Fe2O3 or Fe3O4, which often reduce the corrosion rate by prohibiting oxygen transport to the metal surface.
