Particularities of indoor atmospheric corrosion of steel inside electric boxes in the tropical climate of Tabasco, Mexico

Abstract: Indoor corrosion inside electric boxes is important for the reliability of electric and electronic instruments. A parallel evaluation of indoor/outdoor atmospheric corrosion of steel, pollutants and meteorological parameters was made at two sites, i.e. a rural site and a coastal site of the Tabasco State, Mexico. Two exposure conditions were evaluated: outdoors and inside electric boxes. Very low levels of sulphur compounds have been observed at the two exposure sites and two exposure conditions. As expected, … Show more

“…These observations suggest that the tunnel may be considered an ‘indoor’ environment [33], with a lower probability for the formation of a thin water layer due to lack of water precipitation or fog indoors [34]. Assuming the extreme case of maximum relative humidity of 80% and minimum temperature at 25°C, there was also unlikely to have water condensation since the corresponding dewpoint is about 21°C.…”

“…Estas muestras se sometieron a la radiación solar, a condiciones de humedad (rocío, neblina, lluvia), a temperaturas que oscilaron entre 20 -41 °C. Se aprecia la presencia de morfología globular y laminadas identificadas como lepidocrocita (γ-FeOOH), que es un oxihidróxido de hierro, poco estable y no proporciona protección al sustrato [35]. La parte posterior de la placa que estuvo expuesta al ambiente costero, pero no a la radiación solar (Figura 11b), presenta una morfología diferente a la Figura 11a, ya que no presentó presencia de corrosión a simple vista durante el periodo de exposición, ni agrietamientos en toda la superficie de la placa como el material expuesto a la radiación solar.…”
