Abstract:
      Objective To study the effects of Cl- Concentration on Corrosion Behavior of Hot-dip Galvanized Steel in simulated acid rain atmospheric environment. Methods The simulated acid rain solution (pH=3.05) was used as basic solution, then 0.01, 0.1, and 0.5 mol/L NaCl was respectively added. Samples were immersed in these solution and taken out respectively after 3 days and 7 days. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electrochemical techniques were used to analyze the corroded samples. Results After immersion, the corrosion product component that formed on the surface of hot-dip galvanized steel is NaZn4SO4Cl(OH)6·6H2O. Along with the increase of the Cl- concentration, the corrosion potential of the galvanized steel was gradually decreased, the corrosion current was gradually increased and the impedance value was decreased. Conclusion With the increase of Cl- concentration, the protective effects of corrosion product formed on the surface of hot-dip galvanized steel was gradually reduced, especially after 3 days′ immersion.
