Quantitative analysis of the corrosion morphology after accelerated testing and outdoor exposures of lapjoint test panels coupled with various fastener materials. Image analysis of 3-D microscope images was used to quantify average depth of attack and percent surface area damage.
Accelerated corrosion tests are widely used in the industry and Department of Defense to determine the environmental performance of materials and coatings. While some cyclic tests show good correlations between performance in the laboratory and operational environments, they are only valid for very specific sets of performance metrics and generalizations often cannot be made. Significant work has been performed to investigate in detail the relationship between environmental variables and corrosion failure modes of various material systems. Relative humidity was found to be the single most relevant factor in governing atmospheric corrosion. This paper focuses on the quantitative analysis of the corrosion morphology after accelerated testing and outdoor exposures of lapjoint test panels coupled with various fastener materials. Image analysis of 3-D microscope images was used to quantify average depth of attack and percent surface area damage. A curve fitting routine was developed to quantify corrosion damage within a fastener hole. The effect of relative humidity on the mode and degree of corrosion was evaluated. The effect of different primer systems was also

Black tar-like fouling material was driving frequent shut-downs of a gas plant. Analysis indicated that the nitrogen containing corrosion inhibitor (CI) polymerized with sulfur compounds in a vulcanization process. Testing confirmed the role of the CI in creating this fouling.

Based on two hypotheses of the cause of this type of localized corrosion: an electrochemical galvanic effect and a chemical effect. Observations indicate that the electrochemical galvanic hypothesis was the key mechanism in this type of localized corrosion.
This paper discusses a comparative evaluation of the performance of various types of protective coatings available for the corrosion protection of structural steel components located in marine environments.
