Microbiologically influenced corrosion behavior of S32654 super austenitic stainless steel in the presence of marine Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm

S32654 super austenitic stainless steel(SASS) is widely used in highly corrosive environments. However,its microbiologically influenced corrosion(MIC) behavior has not been reported yet. In this study, the corrosion behavior of S32654 SASS caused by a corrosive marine bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa was investigated using electrochemical measurements and surface analysis techniques. It was found that P. aeruginosa biofilm accelerated the corrosion rate of S325654 SASS, which was demonstrated by a negative shift of the open circuit potential(EOCP), a decrease of polarization resistance and an increase of corrosion current density in the culture medium. The largest pit depth of the coupons exposed in the P.aeruginosa broth for 14 days was 2.83 m, much deeper than that of the control(1.33 m) in the abiotic culture medium. It was likely that the P. aeruginosa biofilm catalyzed the formation of CrO_3, which was detrimental to the passive film, resulting in MIC pitting corrosion.     

Microbiologically influenced corrosion of titanium caused by aerobic marine bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) is a big threat to the strength and safety of many metallic materials used in different environments throughout the world. The metabolites and bioactivity of the microorganisms cause severe deterioration on the metals. In this study, MIC of pure titanium (Ti) was studied in the presence of a highly corrosive aerobic marine bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The results obtained from electrochemical test showed that Ti was corrosion resistant in the abiotic culture medium after 14 d, while the increased corrosion current density (i_corr) obtained from polarization curves and the decreased charge transfer resistance (R_ct) from electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) indicated the accelerated corrosion of Ti caused by P. aeruginosa biofilm. For further confirmation of the above results, the surface of Ti was investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). According to the XPS results, TiO₂ was formed in both abiotic and biotic conditions, while unstable oxide Ti₂O₃ was detected in the presence of P. aeruginosa, leading to the defects in the passive film and localized corrosion. Pitting corrosion was investigated with the help of CLSM, and the largest pit depth found on Ti surface immersed in P. aeruginosa was 1.2 μm. Ti was not immune to MIC caused by P. aeruginosa.     

Synergistic effect of chloride ion and Shewanella algae accelerates the corrosion of Ti-6Al-4V alloy

The increasing utilization of titanium alloys in marine environments makes their microbiologically influenced corrosion study a timely matter.This work demonstrated that the corrosion of Ti-6Al-4V alloy was accelerated by a marine bacterium Shewanella algae in 2216E medium with different Cl level.Various electrochemical,pitting morphology and passive film analyses demonstrated that S.algae weakened the passive film,which made Cl-more aggressive.The synergy of those two factors caused considerable corrosion acceleration of the titanium alloy,leading to a maximum pit depth of 3.2 μm and corrosion current density of 26.5 nA cm-2 in 2216E medium with 3.50 ％ (w/w) Cl-.

海洋环境下钛合金主要服役性能研究

随着我国海洋装备对高性能材料的需求越来越紧迫,具有高比强度和优异耐腐蚀性能的钛合金受到越来越多的重视。然而,由于缺乏海洋环境下钛合金的相关服役性能数据,导致装备设计单位和应用单位选材困难,极大限制了钛合金在我国海洋工程装备上的应用。针对钛合金在海洋环境下服役面临的主要失效形式:压缩蠕变、低周疲劳和应力腐蚀,研究了不同组织形貌对TC4 ELI钛合金相关服役性能的影响,研究结果表明:TC4 ELI钛合金网篮组织的压缩蠕变性能优于双态组织;双态组织的低周疲劳性能优于魏氏组织;魏氏组织的抗应力腐蚀性能优于双态组织。可见,组织形貌对钛合金的服役性能具有重要影响,应根据具体的服役工况进行选取。

Electrochemical behaviour of Ti–25Nb–3Mo–3Zr–2Sn biomedical alloy in different simulated physiological environments

The electrochemical corrosion behaviour of biomedical Ti–25Nb–3Mo–3Zr-2Sn (TLM) alloy was investigated in various simulated body fluids at 37±0·5°C utilising potentiodynamic polarisation and current–time curves. The Ti–6Al–4V (TC4) alloy was also investigated to make a comparison. The different simulated body fluids comprised of 0·9%NaCl saline, Hank’s and Ringer’s solution were employed. The effect of heat treatment on the electrochemical behaviour of the TLM alloy was also considered. It was discovered that all the test specimens were passivated once immersed into the simulated body fluids. It was also found that the TLM alloy has poorer corrosion resistance in Hank’s solution, due to the chemical composition of the Hank’s. After different heat treated, the TLM alloy had different phases and microstructure, and the corrosion behaviour of the TLM alloy was different. In this study, after the heat treatment of 760°C/1 h/AC+550°C/6 h/AC, the TLM alloy had better corrosion resistance. Owing to the corrosion resistance of the TLM alloy was influenced by numerous factors, such as microstructure and the chemical composition of electrolyte, the corrosion behaviour of the TLM alloy is complex. By comparing with the corrosion behaviour of the TC4 alloy, the TLM alloy has poorer corrosion resistant than the TC4 alloy under the same conditions. But the current–time curves of the TLM alloy were more stable than these of the TC4 alloy with further experiments, because of the more passivation film on the surface of the TLM alloy.     

Enhanced resistance of 2205 Cu-bearing duplex stainless steel towards microbiologically influenced corrosion by marine aerobic Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms

An antibacterial 2205-Cu duplex stainless steel(DSS)was shown to inhibit the formation and growth of corrosive marine biofilms by direct contact with copper-rich phases and the release of Cu~(2+)ions from the2205-Cu DSS surface.In this work,the microbiologically influenced corrosion(MIC)resistance of 2205-Cu DSS in the presence of the corrosive marine bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa was investigated.The addition of copper improved the mechanical properties such as the yield strength,the tensile strength and the hardness of 2205 DSS.Electrochemical test results from linear polarization resistance(LPR),electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)and critical pitting temperature(CPT)measurements showed that 2205-Cu DSS possessed a larger polarization resistance(R_p),charge transfer resistance(R_(ct))and CPT values,indicating the excellent MIC resistance of 2205-Cu DSS against the corrosive P.aeruginosa biofilm.The live/dead staining results and the SEM images of biofilm confirmed the strong antibacterial ability of 2205-Cu DSS.The largest pit depth of 2205-Cu DSS was considerably smaller than that of 2205 DSS after 14 d in the presence of P.aeruginosa(2.2μm vs 12.5μm).2205-Cu DSS possessed a superior MIC resistance to regular 2205 DSS in the presence of aerobic P.aeruginosa.

拉-拉疲劳载荷下钛合金湿喷丸的残余应力松弛及再次喷丸工艺EI北大核心CSCD

采用湿法喷丸强化工艺(wet shot-peening)对TC4钛合金表面进行处理,研究高、低周的拉-拉疲劳过程中合金残余应力松弛规律,探讨再次喷丸工艺(re-shot-peening,RSP)对疲劳寿命的影响。结果表明:在拉应力载荷状态下,残余压应力依然发生松弛现象。疲劳载荷水平对喷丸TC4钛合金残余压应力场(CRSF)的松弛速率、松弛程度和松弛范围具有重要影响。高周疲劳(HCF)过程中残余应力松弛主要发生在近表层0~30μm,松弛速率较慢。低周疲劳(LCF)过程中残余应力松弛发生在0~80μm,范围更大,速率更快。RSP周期对于TC4钛合金的疲劳寿命也具有较大影响。在25%和50%初始喷丸疲劳寿命进行RSP处理会显著提高疲劳寿命,而在75%初始喷丸疲劳寿命处进行RSP处理对于疲劳寿命基本没有影响。此外,RSP的强化效果与疲劳载荷水平相关,对于高周疲劳寿命提高明显。
