Nanoparticles are being considered in the development of durable coating systems due to their beneficial electrical and mechanical properties. The present study aims to investigate the corrosion performance of a nanoparticle enriched zinc rich primer (NPE-ZRP) for structural steel in aggressive marine exposure.

Long-term (>1.5 years) field testing of reference electrodes and anodes are carried out on port facilities in Kozmino (marine conditions) and in Ural region (in soils). Experimental procedures and some observations made in course of the testing.
This work aims at comparing a performance of the UNS(1) S32304 lean-duplex stainless steel rebars in electrical contact with carbon steel rebars, both embedded in concrete subjected to a chloride ion contamination.
A marine site and a semi-marine site in the UAE and a rural site in Saudi Arabia were selected in this study. The field test results compare the atmospheric corrosion resistance of eight different stainless steel grades
The following paper discusses models and procedures for estimating the corrosion-related metal loss and loss patterns on carbon steel exposed in a marine environment. This includes immersion and atmospheric exposure and the impact of coatings.
Protective organic coatings are the primary form of corrosion control for steel structures exposed in a marine environment. For more than fifty years, testing of coatings suitable for various service environments has relied substantially on exposure of coated steel panels of different configurations followed by evaluation via visual inspection. Exposure may include accelerated testing or natural environmental exposure in immersion or atmospheric conditions.
Harvesting ocean energy will play an important role in supplying fossil-free energy for future generations. The oceanic environments around the world are unfortunately of the toughest possible to operate in. Most technologies use a power take-off (PTO) unit with mechanisms that are placed inside protective enclosures or sealed buoys to protect from the harsh environment in seawater. This gives a barrier from the corrosive electrolyte and biological activity that can deteriorate the components. The energy from the oceans in form of relative movements and forces are transferred to the PTOs with help from complex dynamic sealing systems.
Epoxy-based coating used in the ships and marine structures can be quickly degraded after only a short period of exterior exposure. The weathering defects such as discoloration, chalking and gloss reduction are originated from a photo-oxidation of aromatic group in the epoxy resin under the UV light. Weather resistance coatings such as polyurethane and polysiloxane require more work due to the short over-coating interval and low compatibility with primer coating layers.
Despite rapid development of electricity generation from wind compared to other renewable power sources in recent years, much greater efforts are still required to achieve the current level of sustained capacity growth to get on track with the Net Zero Emissions (NZE) by 2050 Scenario. One of the main challenges remains around the sustainability and cost reduction efforts for the offshore wind sector, especially related to operation and maintenance (O&M) costs. Monopiles, the most common foundation type in offshore wind farms, just like any other submerged metal structures are susceptible to corrosion, the maintenance of which could be very costly.
Corrosion prevention of the inside of a monopile structure has been challenging until today.
A preliminary research to identify the possible susceptibility of a case study marine bridge infrastructure to MIC is the main objective. This will be supported by determining the bacteria, nutrient levels, environmental conditions and other factors that could support MIC.
Vinyl coatings technology was pioneered shortly after World War II to control the corrosion on steel dam gates along the Mississippi River. Previously, oil-based technology had resulted in paints that performed well on atmospheric exposed areas of the dams but failed quickly in the areas immersed in water. By the mid-1950s, their proven durability had made vinyl coatings the industry standard for marine applications.
