The galvanic corrosion behavior of titanium/ Cu-Ni Alloy / high strength steel in multiphase material system has been studied under open circuit conditions using a zero-resistance ammeter (ZRA) in seawater. After the tests, the surface morphologies of the samples were detected by SEM. These results have been compared with results estimated from the polarization curves according to the mixed potential theory (imposed potential measurements). Results showed that Galvanic corrosion behavior of titanium (TA2)/Cu-Ni Alloy (B10) / high strength steel (921A) fulfill the mixed potential theory, 921A acts as the anode and bothTA2and B10 act as the cathodes. The overall galvanic reaction is mainly governed by the anodic oxidation of the 921A.
Abstract. The galvanic corrosion behavior of Cu-Ni Alloy(B10)/high strength steel (921A) has been studied using a zero-resistance ammeter (ZRA) in seawater at different temperatures. As well as it was systemically investigated by weight loss measurements, electrochemical methods and scanning electron microscope.Results showed 921A acts as the anode and B10 act as the cathodes. The effect of temperature on the galvanic corrosion is important, the corrosion rate became higher with the temperature increased.
The galvanic corrosion behavior of titanium (TA2)/Cu-Ni alloy (B10)/low alloy steel (921A) multi-material system has been studied using a zero-resistance ammeter (ZRA) in seawater at different temperatures. After the tests, the surface morphologies of the samples were detected by SEM. Results showed galvanic corrosion behavior of TA2/B10/921A fulfill the mixed potential theory, 921A acts as the anode and both TA2 and B10 act as the cathodes. The effect of temperature on the galvanic corrosion is important, the corrosion rate increases with increasing temperature.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
