The corrosion resistance of rust layer on rare earths weathering steel and carbon steel was studied through the electrochemical means of polarization test and electrochemical impedance spectra. The difference of corrosion resistance of testing steels was analyzed through electrochemical means. The 10PCuRE steels whose rare earths content is smaller than 0.016% have good performance of corrosion resistance because corrosion potential of the steel is positive and resistance of rust layer is large. The results showed that rare earths of proper content could diminish corrosion tendency and promote the formation of the steady and compact rust layer.展开更多

Solid-soluble content of rare earth in the steels was analyzed by non-aqua electroanalysis and ICP. The results showed that rare earth modified the types and the morphologies of inclusions in the weathering steels. The small spherical rare earth oxysulfides and rare earth sulphides replaced the elongated MnS inclusions in the RE weathering steels. The rare earth inclusions dispersedly distributed and most inclusions were smaller than 2 μm in size. The optimum content of RE was 0.0065%-0.016% for 10PCuRE weathering steels containing about 0.002% oxygen and 0.004% sulfur. Solid-soluble content of rare earth in steels was (14-20)×10-6, which can act as a micro-alloying element. The corrosion resistance of 10PCuRE weathering steels and Q235 were studied by dry-wet cyclic immersion test. Their corrosion rates were obtained respectively. The polarization curves and pitting corrosion behaviors of weathering steels with and without rare earth were measured by electrochemical methods. The corrosion resistance of Cu-P weathering steels was improved by adding an appropriate amount of rare earth. Less and fewer rare earth inclusions largely decreased pitting susceptibility and rate of pit propagation. The pitting potential and the resistance against pitting corrosion of the RE weathering steel were significantly improved due to the modification of rare earth to inclusions.展开更多

Suitable equivalent circuits were chosen to fit the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)of steel wires over various corrosive times and different surface treatments,which indicate good fitting results. The double electrical layer charge-transfer resistance increases in the sequence:bare steel wire, untreated steel wire and oil coated steel wire and their corrosion resistance decreases in turn,which is consistent with their polarization curves.The oil layer provides a certain protective effect on untreated steel wires,but its effect is not entirely clear.展开更多
