Deicing agent refers to the substance that melts snow by exothermic or endothermic chemical reaction after spraying on snow. It also has the function of reducing the freezing point to prevent freezing. However, the long-term use of deicing agent can cause some negative problems, such as pot hole, concrete corrosion, vehicle and steel bridge parts corrosion. At present, wet salt spray deicing is a cost-effective deicing method that is being widely used. Typical deicing agents are calcium chloride and sodium chloride. Deicing equipment is placed to similar or higher corrosive environment than coastal or marine environment due to direct contact to chloride in deicing operation. Therefore, the anti-corrosion control is very important for the maintenance of deicing equipment. In this study, corrosion resistance, blistering and repairability of the deicing equipment were tested by using test standard (salt water production and spraying- KS D 9502 , evaluating degree of rusting- ASTM D 610, evaluating degree of blistering- ASTM D 714, pull-off strangth of coatings- ASTM D 4541). And an economical coating system with long-term antirust performance was constructed. The results show that the performance of the coating system has been improved than with the original coating.

본 연구에서는 국내에서 사용되고 있는 우레탄계, 세라믹계, 폴리실록산계 및 불소수지계 강교량용 도장계를 대상으로 실내 부식실험을 실시하여 도장계별 노화모델을 도출하였다. 상도를 구분하여 각 도장계별로 시험편을 제작하였으며, 직경 0.5, 1, 3, 5 mm의 원형 결함을 도입하였다. ISO 20340를 이용하여 극한환경을 모사한 부식촉진실험을 실시하였다. 도장계별 노화곡선은 원형결함의 노화면적을 기준으로 평가되었다. 노화곡선을 사용하여 공용중인 강교의 도장 사용수명을 평가하기 위하여 촉진배율을 산출하였으며, 촉진배율은 ISO 20340과 ISO 9223의 대기환경 부식속도를 기준으로 산출되었다. 실험결과, 노화진전속도는 원형결함의 크기와 상관없이 증가하였으며, 노화면적이 3%일 때 우레탄 도장계의 노화수명은 C2, C3, C4 및 C5 등급에서 약 31.8, 15.8, 9.9 및 3.9년으로 평가되었다.

Painting system are widely used to prevent corrosion damage The coating method on various corrosion preventive method was usually adopted for the functional ability and excellent appearance. In this study, to evaluate the deterioration curve of coating system for steel bridge, the combined cyclic corrosion test was conducted base on ISO 20340. The deterioration areas were measured depending on corrosion cycle. The deteriorations of newly-built coating were compared with those of re-coating.
