15、, PA 19428-2959, United States.such statements 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

16、corrosion resistance of weatheringsteels.5.2 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

17、 steel.5.3 The second method of this guide is 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

18、data for flat,boldly exposed steel specimens. 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 fo

19、r prediction oflong-term performance of actual 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 Met

20、hod:6.2.1 This method essentially involves the 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 = corros

21、ion loss,t = time, andA and B = constants. A 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 regressionanaly

22、sis, using the method of least squares detailed 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.NOT

23、E 1Eq 1 can also be written as follows:C 5 AtB(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

24、 a period of fifty years for low-alloy weathering steels invarious environments are presented in Appendix X1.NOTE 2It 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 actua

25、l losses. Specifically, inenvironments of very 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

26、 moreaccurate predictions. Nevertheless, the 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

27、 based on the data ofLarrabee and Coburn (6.3.1). 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. Corrosionindices by either of the two approaches

28、can be easily deter-mined by use of the tool provided on the ASTM website athttp:/www.astm.org/COMMIT/G01_G101Calculator.xls.6.3.1 Predictive Method Based on the Data of Larabee andCoburnEquations for predicting corrosion loss of low-alloysteels after 15.5 years of exposure to various atmospheres,ba

29、sed 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, NJ) was modified toallow calculation o

30、f 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 given below. Thehigher the

31、 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 3Similar indices can be calculated for the Legault-Leckieequations for marine and semi-rural atmospheres. However, it has beenfound that t

32、he 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 steelcompositions within the range of the original

These limits are as follows:Cu 0.51 % maxNi 1.1 % maxCr 1.3 % maxSi 0.64 % maxP 0.12 % max3The boldface numbers in parentheses refer to a list of references at the end ofthis standard.G101 04 (2010)26.3.1.3 Examples of averages and ranges of atmosp

35、fects of chemicalcomposition on the corrosion losses of hundreds of steelsexposed at three industrial locations were published byTownsend (11).6.3.2.1 In this method, the coefficients A and B, as definedfor Eq 1, are calculated as linear combinations of the effects ofeach alloying element, according

36、 to Eq 5 and 6.A 5 ao1Saixi(5)B 5 bo1Sbixi(6)where:A and B = constants in the exponential corrosion lossfunction as defined for Eq 1,aoand bo= constants for three industrial locations as givenin Table 1,aiand bi= constants for each alloying element as given inTable 1 for three industrial locations,

37、andxi= compositions of the individual alloying ele-ments.The A and B values 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 fromt

38、he Townsend data, the following procedure shall be followed.(1) For each 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 c

39、alculated by use of Eq 4.(3) For a given low alloy steel, A and B values 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

40、the same site as determined in (1).(5) The respective differences between 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 i

41、n Table 2 for pure iron and avariety of low-alloy steel compositions. The 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.
