Recently, galvanizing method is predominantly being used not only a economical point of view but also due to it s stability and long life. For example, guard rail of high way, all kinds of structures for ship etc. were protected with galvanizing and demand of galvanized structural materials was being increased with more and more. However, galvanized structures were inevitably being deteriorated with time eventually because they were corroded with solution of galvanizing film and exfoliation of it s film in the present severe corrosive environment. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the corrosion resistance of the galvanizing film through various methods such as variation of chemical composition of galvanizing bath, chromate treatment and coating treatment. In this study, three test specimens such as pure galvanizing, galvarium, and chromate treatment were submerged at tap water with inhibitor addition. And the effect of their corrosion resistance improvement was comparatively investigated with electrochemical method. Corrosion current density of the galvanized steel was the largest among three specimens, however, the galvarium steel showed the lowest corrosion current density. Futhermore, these three kinds of test specimens indicated considerably excellent corrosion resistance by dipped at tap water with inhibitor addition. Especially, the galvanized steel showed the best effect of corrosion resistance improvement than other test specimens.

가혹한 부식환경 하에 사용되어 지고 있는 다양한 강구조물에 대해서 많은 표면방식법이 있다. 그 중의 한방법인 용사는 다양한 강구조물의 표면방식을 위하여 비교적 최근에 개발된 유용한 방식법이다. 그러나 용사피막도 환경오염의 가속화에 따라 점차 더욱 좋은 내식성을 필요로 하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 아아크 용사에 의해서 도막두께 $200{\mu}m$의 피막을 만들었으며, 피막의 종류는 순 아연,순 알류미늄, 합금피막(Al:Zn=85:15) 및 (Al:Zn=95:5)의 합금피막이었다. 그리고 이들 피막의 내식성을 해수용액에서 전기화학적인 방법으로 고찰 하였다. 순 알류미늄 피막은 다른 피막에 비해서 비교적 상당히 좋은 내식성을 보였다. 그리고 합금피막도 역시 순 아연피막에 비해서 좋은 내식성을 보였다. 특히 순 알류미늄 피막은 갈바륨 용사라고 알려진 합금피막(Al:Zn=85:15)보다 해수용액에서 내식성이 상대적으로 좋았음이 관찰되었다. 순 아연의 부식된 표면양상은 입게부식의 형태를 나타내었으나 순 알류미늄과 합금피막은 균일부식의 형태를 나타내었다.

Many surface protection methods have been developed to apply for constructional steels used under severe corrosive environment. Thermal spray coating has been known to be an attractive technique due to its relatively high coating speed. Furthermore high corrosion resistance of coated film with thermal spray is required to expand its application. Four types of coated films(DFT:300 um) such as pure zinc, pure aluminum and two Al-Zn alloy (Al:Zn=85:15 and Al:Zn=95:5) onto the carbon steel (SS401) were prepared with arc spray, and the corrosion behavior of their samples were evaluated by electrochemical method in this study. Pure aluminum sample showed high corrosion resistance behavior exposed to sea water solution and pure zinc and alloy (Al:Zn=95:5) samples followed pure aluminum sample. The other alloy(Al:Zn=85:15) so called galvalume coated onto the carbon steel ranks the 4th corrosion resistance in this study. The results of porosity ratio of those samples by observation are well matched with the electrochemical data.
