Abstract
ABSTRACTThe corrosivity of atmosphere in the continental territory of Russia toward carbon steel, zinc, copper and aluminium was determined and estimated. The atmosphere corrosivity was determined from experimental data on first-year corrosion losses in representative test locations. The atmosphere corrosivity was estimated using first-year corrosion losses of structural materials calculated by means of dose–response functions: new ones (DRFN) and those presented in ISO 9223 (DRFS). Estimation of atmosphere corrosivity in the Russian Federation (RF) territory was performed using the data bank of the Institute of physical chemistry and electrochemistry of the Russian Academy of Sciences containing long-term annual average meteorological atmosphere parameters. The mapping of RF continental territory by categories of atmosphere corrosivity is presented. The atmosphere corrosivities estimated by DRFN and DRFS for each metal are compared. It has been shown that DRFN provides more reliable atmosphere corrosivity estimates.
