Ding & Testing Inspection: Precisely Revealing Material Corrosion Behavior to Optimize Corrosion Resistance
Polarization curve testing is an advanced detection technology based on electrochemical principles. By measuring the electrode polarization behavior of materials in corrosive media, it quantitatively analyzes the corrosion rate, corrosion resistance, and corrosion mechanisms of materials. This testing method provides a scientific basis for material selection, corrosion prevention design, process optimization, and equipment maintenance, ensuring the reliability and durability of materials and equipment in complex environments.
Service Introduction
Polarization curve testing is a high-precision corrosion assessment method. By applying an external potential in a corrosive medium and measuring the current response of the material, a polarization curve is plotted. This curve can reflect key parameters such as the corrosion potential, corrosion current density, and polarization resistance of the material in a specific environment, thereby quantitatively assessing the corrosion rate and corrosion resistance of the material. Polarization curve testing can not only reveal the corrosion mechanisms of materials but also predict the corrosion behavior of materials under specific conditions by simulating actual usage environments.
Testing Methods
Polarization curve testing uses advanced electrochemical workstations, combined with laboratory simulation and data analysis, to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the test results. Common testing methods include:
-
Dynamic Polarization Testing: By gradually changing the electrode potential, the current response of the material at different potentials is measured, and anodic and cathodic polarization curves are plotted.
-
Potentiostatic Polarization Testing: The current response of the material is measured at a constant potential to evaluate the corrosion behavior of the material at a specific potential.
-
Dynamic Polarization Curve Fitting: By analyzing the slope and intercept of the polarization curve, parameters such as corrosion current density and polarization resistance are calculated.
-
Corrosion Potential Measurement: Determining the natural corrosion potential of the material in the corrosive medium to assess its thermodynamic stability.
-
Pitting Sensitivity Assessment: By analyzing the anodic branch of the polarization curve, the pitting sensitivity of the material is assessed.
Industry Pain Points
In practical applications, materials and equipment often face complex corrosive environments, such as marine environments, industrial atmospheres, and acidic environments. Corrosion not only reduces the service life of materials but can also lead to structural failure and safety hazards. Traditional corrosion detection methods usually only provide qualitative analysis and are unable to monitor the corrosion process in real-time or quantitatively assess the corrosion rate. Therefore, developing a detection technology that can monitor corrosion behavior in real-time and quantitatively is of great importance.
