These are not alternative methods; eachmethod is intended for a specific purpose, as outlined in 5.2 and5.3.4.1.1 The first method utilize

Significance and

11、 Use5.1 In the past, ASTM specifications for low-alloy weath-ering steels, such as Specifications A 242/A 242M, A 588/A 588M,A 606 Type 4,A 709/A 709M Grade 50W, HPS 70W,and 100W, A 852/A 852M, and A 871/A 871M stated that theatmospheric corrosion resistance of these steels is “approxi-mately two ti

12、mes that of carbon structural steel with copper.”Afootnote in the specifications stated that “two times carbonstructural steel with copper is equivalent to four times carbonstructural steel without copper (Cu 0.02 maximum).” Because1This guide is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee G01 on Corro

15、s relating the corrosion resistance of weatheringsteels to that of other steels are imprecise and, more impor-tantly, lack significance to the user (1 and 2)3, the presentguide was prepared to describe more meaningful methods ofestimating the atmospheric corrosion resistance of weatheringsteels.5.2

16、The first method of this guide is intended for use inestimating the expected long-term atmospheric corrosionlosses of specific grades of low-alloy steels in various envi-ronments, utilizing existing short-term atmospheric corrosiondata for these grades of steel.5.3 The second method of this guide is

17、 intended for use inestimating the relative atmospheric corrosion resistance of aspecific heat of low-alloy steel, based on its chemical compo-sition.5.4 It is important to recognize that the methods presentedhere are based on calculations made from test data for flat,boldly exposed steel specimens.

18、 Atmospheric corrosion ratescan be much higher when the weathering steel remains wet forprolonged periods of time, or is heavily contaminated with saltor other corrosive chemicals. Therefore, caution must beexercised in the application of these methods for prediction oflong-term performance of actua

19、l structures.6. Procedure6.1 Atmospheric corrosion data for the methods presentedhere should be collected in accordance with Practice G50.Specimen preparation, cleaning, and evaluation should con-form to Practice G1.6.2 Linear Regression Extrapolation Method:6.2.1 This method essentially involves th

20、e extrapolation oflogarithmic plots of corrosion losses versus time. Such plots ofatmospheric corrosion data generally fit well to straight lines,and can be represented by equations in slope-intercept form,(3-5):log C 5 log A 1 B log t (1)where:C = corrosion loss,t = time, andA and B = constants. A

21、is the corrosion loss at t = 1, and Bis the slope of a log C versus log + plot.C may be expressed as mass loss per unit area, or as acalculated thickness loss or penetration based on mass loss.6.2.2 The method is best implemented by linear regressionanalysis, using the method of least squares detail

22、ed in GuideG16.At least three data points are required. Once the constantsof the equation are determined by the linear regression analy-sis, the projected corrosion loss can be calculated for any giventime. A sample calculation is shown in Appendix X1.NOTE 2Eq 1 can also be written as follows:C 5 At

23、B(2)Differentiation of Eq 2 with respect to time gives the corrosion rate (R)at any given time:R 5 ABtB 2 1!(3)Also, the time to a given corrosion loss can be calculated as follows:t 5 C/A!1/B(4)6.2.3 Examples of projected atmospheric corrosion lossesover a period of fifty years for low-alloy weathe

24、ring steels invarious environments are presented in Appendix X1.NOTE 3It has been reported (6 and 7) that for some environments, useof log-log linear regression extrapolations may result in predictions whichare somewhat lower or somewhat higher than actual losses. Specifically, inenvironments of ver

25、y low corrosivity, the log-log predictions may behigher than actual losses (6), whereas in environments of very highcorrosivity the opposite may be true (7). For these cases, use of numericaloptimization or composite modeling methods (7 and 8) may provide moreaccurate predictions. Nevertheless, the

26、simpler log-log linear regressionmethod described above provides adequate estimates for most purposes.6.3 Predictive Methods Based on Steel CompositionTwoapproaches are provided for prediction of relative corrosionresistance from composition. The first is based on the data ofLarrabee and Coburn (6.3

27、.1). Its advantage is that it iscomparatively simple to apply. This approach is suitable whenthe alloying elements are limited to Cu, Ni, Cr, Si, and P, andin amounts within the range of the original data.

32、to various atmospheres,based on the chemical composition of the steel, were publishedby Legault and Leckie (9). The equations are based onextensive data published by Larrabee and Coburn (10).6.3.1.1 For use in this guide, the Legault-Leckie equationfor an industrial atmosphere (Kearny, N.J.) was mod

33、ified toallow calculation of an atmospheric corrosion resistance indexbased on chemical composition. The modification consisted ofdeletion of the constant and changing the signs of all the termsin the equation. The modified equation for calculation of theatmospheric corrosion resistance index (I) is

34、 given below. Thehigher the index, the more corrosion resistant is the steel.I 5 26.01 % Cu! 1 3.88 % Ni! 1 1.20 % Cr!1 1.49 % Si! 1 17.28 % P! 2 7.29 % Cu! % Ni!2 9.10 % Ni! % P! 2 33.39 % Cu!2NOTE 4Similar indices can be calculated for the Legault-Leckieequations for marine and semi-rural atmosphe

35、res. However, it has beenfound that the ranking of the indices of various steel compositions is thesame for all these equations. Therefore, only one equation is required torank the relative corrosion resistance of different steels.6.3.1.2 The predictive equation should be used only for steelcomposit

36、ions within the range of the original test materials inthe Larrabee-Coburn data set (7). These limits are as follows:Cu 0.51 % maxNi 1.1 % maxCr 1.3 % maxSi 0.64 % maxP 0.12 % max6.3.1.3 Examples of averages and ranges of atmosphericcorrosion resistance indices calculated by the Larrabee-Coburnmetho

40、ues calculated from Eq 4 and 5 can be usedto compute corrosion losses, corrosion rates, and times to agiven loss at any of the three sites by use of Eq 2-4,respectively.6.3.2.2 For purposes of calculating a corrosion index fromthe Townsend data, the following procedure shall be followed.(1) For each

41、 of the three test sites, A and B values for pure,unalloyed iron at are calculated by use of the regressionconstants given in Table 1, and Eq 5 and 6.(2) The times for pure iron to reach a 254-m loss at thethree sites are then calculated by use of Eq 4.(3) For a given low alloy steel, A and B values

42、 at each siteare calculated from the regression constants and coefficients inTable 1, and Eq 5 and 6.(4) The losses of the low alloy steel at each site arecalculated from Eq 1 at the times required for pure iron to lose254 m at the same site as determined in (1).(5) The respective differences betwee

43、n the 254-m loss forpure iron and the calculated loss for the low alloy steel at eachsite as determined in (4) are averaged to give a corrosion index.(6) Examples of corrosion indices calculated by theTownsend method are shown in Table 2 for pure iron and avariety of low-alloy steel compositions. Th

44、e upper limit of thecomposition ranges of each element in the Townsend data arealso given in Table 2.6.3.3 The minimum acceptable atmospheric corrosion indexshould be a matter of negotiation between the buyer and theseller.7.

These figures were developed from data (12) forspecimens exposed for time periods up to 8 or 16 years invarious countries. The specific exposure locations are given inTables X1.1-X1.3, and the compo

In this test program, specimens were exposed infour orientations: 30 to the horizontal facing north and facingsouth, and vertical facing north and facing south. (The backsurface of each specimen was protected with a durable paintsystem.) For the lines plotted in Figs. X1.1-X1.3, data for thetest orientations showing the greatest corrosion losses wereused.X1.2 It must be emphasized that the data shown in Figs.X1.1-X1.3 apply only to flat, boldly exposed specimens.TAB
