In this study, Inconel 625 was used as a thermal spray material to prevent dew point corrosion damage to the economizer tube, and sealing treatment was performed after applying the arc thermal spray coating technology. Various electrochemical experiments were conducted in the 0.5 wt% sulfuric acid solution to analyze the corrosion resistance of the thermal spray coating (TSC) layer. After the anodic polarization experiment, the degree of corrosion damage was determined through a scanning electron microscope and EDS component analysis. When measuring the open circuit potential, the effect of the sealing treatment was confirmed through stable potential formation of the TSC+sealing treatment (TSC+Sealing). As a result of the anodic polarization experiment, the passivation region was confirmed in TSC and TSC+Sealing, and corrosion resistance was improved as no corrosion damage was observed. In addition, the corrosion resistance of TSC+Sealing was the best when analyzing the corrosion potential and corrosion current density calculated by Tafel analysis.

In this study, we developed the CCPP calculating program, which is a kind of index and can determine whether calcium carbonate would precipitate or not in pipe line of water distribution system. Through 9 complicated procedures, CCPP can be calculated. Assuming pH of equilibrium as a first trial, compare the right-hand-side result with left-hand-side result. If the percentage difference between the two results is less than a prescribed tolerance, the initial assumption for the assumed equilibrium pH is adequate. If the difference is too large, make a different assumption and repeat until a result within the prescribed tolerance is achieved. Plugging the intermediate results into the final equation, we could compute the CCPP. Using Fortran and Visual Basic languages, we developed the program. As a result of application of the program, the water quality of intaking water of Han River is highly corrosive by the index of CCPP.

Steel used for various industrial fields including ammunition is vulnerable to corrosion so surface treatments are required such as plating, painting and chemical conversion coating. Zinc phosphate, used for ammunition manufacturing, is used to stick the stable compound on the surface by chemical conversion of metal. The quality of phosphate coating depends on many factors such as total acidity and iron content. In this study, we studied the influence of total acidity and iron content on coating weight and corrosion resistance of phosphate coating. The surface structure of the coating becomes dense and corrosion resistance is improved with increasing iron content. However, total acidity influences only the thickness and phosphate coating weight. In conclusion, this study suggests the optimal range of total acidity and iron content to manufacture the ammunition.

Structures in our surroundings deteriorate over time due to environmental and chemical factors, resulting in a decrease in their performance. The primary causes of degradation in concrete structures are carbonation, salt damage, and freeze-thaw cycles. Various maintenance methods exist to address these degradation issues. However, research and technological development for existing maintenance methods have been ongoing, but the accuracy and effectiveness of repair materials and techniques have not been extensively validated. Therefore, in this study, we conducted a material performance evaluation of various manufacturers' repair materials. Based on this evaluation, we applied corrosion inhibitors and epoxy, which are the methods most closely related to crack repair, to assess the durability performance against carbonation, salt damage, and freeze-thaw cycles. The results show approximately a two-fold performance improvement against carbonation and salt damage, and a 5% enhancement in repair performance against freeze-thaw cycles. Thus, it is considered effective in preventing rebar corrosion when appropriate maintenance is carried out according to environmental and chemical factors during structural repairs.

Calcium Carbonate Saturation Index (LI: Langelier Index), an indicator of $CaCO_3(s)$ saturation, indicates corrosiveness of drinking water and it has been used to monitor drinking water conditions in USA, E.U, and Japan. The objective of this research was to measure LI parameters including water temperature, pH, total alkalinity, calcium ion concentration, and electric conductivity, and to evaluate possibility of using LI in domestic system. Results showed that water temperature varied from 2.0 to $26^{\circ}C$ during 15 months, indicating an average annual temperature of $23.9^{\circ}C$. Total alkalinity was from 20 to 45 mg/L. The concentration difference between total alkalinity and $HCO_3{^-}$ value was hardly observed; the concentration of total alkalinity can be replaced by that of $HCO_3{^-}$. Tap water had a medium corrosiveness since LI values were from 2.0 to 0.5. To reduce the corrosiveness and to increase LI values of drinking water, the results of this study showed that chemicals such as $Ca(OH)_2$, $CaCO_3$, NaOH, or $NaHCO_3$ should be added to water treatment plants.

The roof structural model of liquid manure storage tank was designed to improve a structural safety and an ability of resistance to corrosion by the bad environmental condition with high humidity and high gas concentration. Due to corrosion of a general steel, the 5 years used materials were reduced to one-third of a new material in the result of a bending strength test. Some structural materials were tested to evaluate a strength and an anti-corrosion, and stainless steel pipe (STS439), steel angle with zinc hot dipping, rectangular steel pipe covered with FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastics) resin were selected finally. A stainless steel is more expansive about $3{\sim}5$ times than general structural steel. But its durability under heavy corrosive environment is expected twice as long as general steel. The roof models were designed as closed cone type for each of the three structural materials. In the result of a FEM (Finite Element Method) structural analysis for the developed models, the safe snow depth was higher 2.3 times than a general roof structure, when elements of equal section modulus were used.

최근 환경오염 문제로 인한 연비 규제 강화 속도가 빨라지고 있으며 이에 따른 연비 향상 기술이 크게 대두 되고 있다. 연비 향상 기술 중 경량화 방안소재로 알루미늄(Al), 마그네슘(Mg) 등의 비철금속을 주로 사용하고 있으며, 이중 알루미늄은 다른 경량화 금속소재보다 우수한 경쟁력을 가지고 있다. 하지만 경제적인 측면에서 철 대비 비용적인 어려움을 가지고 있고 용접성이 떨어지기 때문에, 자동차 부품의 일부만 알루미늄 소재를 선택하여 사용하고 있는 실정이며 알루미늄의 높은 이온화 경향으로 인해 기존 자동차 철강 소재와 접촉 시 쉽게 부식되는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서는 알루미늄의 금속원소를 첨가하는 연구가 지속적으로 개발 되고 있다. 알루미늄 합금에서 마그네슘의 첨가는 좋은 용접성과 내식성, 강도를 향상시킨다. 하지만 3%이상의 마그네슘 첨가는 입계에 ${\beta}(Al_xMg_y)$석출상이 석출되게 되며, 입계에 연속적으로 형성된 ${\beta}(Al_xMg_y)$석출상은 응력 부식 균열 (Stress corrsion cracking)과 입계 부식(Intergranular corrosion)을 야기하는 결과를 가져온다고 알려져 있다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 Al 5000계열 합금의 Zn의 첨가를 통해 ${\tau}(Al_xMg_yZn_z)$을 입계에 석출시켜서 입계에 ${\beta}(Al_xMg_y)$상의 석출을 방지함으로써 내식성을 향상시키거나 Al 5000계열 합금의 열처리를 통해 ${\beta}(Al_xMg_y)$석출상을 고용시킴으로써 응력부식균열의 발생을 억제하는 연구도 있다. 하지만 열처리 후 Polarization test를 이용한 내식성 연구는 잘 안 알려져 있다. 따라서 이번 연구에서는 Al5000계열의 주조한 합금을 DSC분석을 통하여 ${\beta}(Al_xMg_y)$석출상의 고용 온도가 약 $470^{\circ}C$라는 것을 확인한 후, 실온에서 $100^{\circ}C/hr$으로 가열하고 조건에 따라 $450^{\circ}C$에서 3시간, 6시간, 12시간, 24시간, 30시간 항온 유지시킨 후 공냉을 진행하였다. 열처리를 마친 시편은 에폭시를 이용하여 마운팅 하였으며, 시편표면을 2000#까지 연마 후 증류수로 세척한 다음 질소를 이용하여 건조 후 분극 시험을 진행하였다. 3.5wt% NaCl 용액에서 분극 곡선을 통해 부식거동을 확인한 결과 24시간까지 시간이 증가 할수록 내식성이 우수해지는 것을 확인하였으며, 추가적으로 조직사진, SEM & EDS 분석과 XRD, TEM 분석을 통해 내식성은 입계에 존재하는 Mg의 조성이 감소하게 되면 내식성이 향상되는 것을 관찰하였다.

This study provides the identification of corrosion cause substances in super heater tube from a commercial scale circulating fluidized bed boiler. Electricity is produced by the combustion of biomass mainly wood waste. The biomass, super heater tube, super heater tube ash, and boiler ash were collected and components associated with corrosion were analyzed. A large amount of oxygen-containing material was found due to oxidation. The chlorine content was analyzed as 6.1% and 4.3% in super heater tube ash and boiler ash respectively which were approximately 20 and 14 times higher than those of designed values. Also, alkaline metal contents (K, Na, Ca) were very high in ash samples collected from super heater tube and boiler. The tendency of slagging and fouling was predicted based on X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) results. Basicity that can lead to slagging was estimated as 3.62 and 2.72 in super heater tube and boiler ash, respectively. Slagging would occur with ash content when considering the designed value as 0.35.
