文摘The corrosion behavior of partly coated carbon steel was investigated by salt spray test and scanning Kelvin probe (SKP) in order to understand the long-term corrosion behavior of coated carbon steel in marine atmosphere environment. The localized corrosion was accurately characterized by SKP in both coated and uncoated regions. The SKP results showed that Volta potential varied with the test time, and the more the corrosion products, the more positive the potential. The borderline between coated and uncoated regions of partly coated steel shifted towards the coated side with the increasing of test time. The coating disbonding rate could be determined according to the shift of potential borderline measured by SKP. The corrosion mechanism of partly coated steel in NaCl salt spray was discussed according to the potential maps and corrosion morphologies.
