6、te measurements often pro-vide results in terms of electrical current. Although the con-version of these current values into mass loss rates or penetra-tion rates is based on Faradays Law, the calculations can becomplicated for alloys and metals with elements havingmultiple valence values. This prac

7、tice is intended to provideguidance in calculating mass loss and penetration rates for suchalloys. Some typical values of equivalent weights for a varietyof metals and alloys are provided.3.2 Electrochemical corrosion rate measurements may pro-vide results in terms of electrical resistance. The conv

8、ersion ofthese results to either mass loss or penetration rates requiresadditional electrochemical information. Some approaches forestimating this information are given.3.3 Use of this practice will aid in producing more consis-tent corrosion rate data from electrochemical results. This willmake res

9、ults from different studies more comparable andminimize calculation errors that may occur in transformingelectrochemical results to corrosion rate values.4. Corrosion Current Density4.1 Corrosion current values may be obtained from galvaniccells and polarization measurements, including Tafel extrapo

10、-lations or polarization resistance measurements. (See Refer-ence Test Method G5 and Practice G59 for examples.) The firststep is to convert the measured or estimated current value tocurrent density. This is accomplished by dividing the totalcurrent by the geometric area of the electrode exposed to

11、thesolution. The surface roughness is generally not taken intoaccount when calculating the current density. It is assumed thatthe current distributes uniformly across the area used in thiscalculation. In the case of galvanic couples, the exposed area ofthe anodic specimen should be used. This calcul

12、ation may beexpressed as follows:icor5IcorA(1)where:icor= corrosion current density, A/cm2,Icor= total anodic current, A, andA = exposed specimen area, cm2.Other units may be used in this calculation. In somecomputerized polarization equipment, this calculation is madeautomatically after the specime

13、n area is programmed into thecomputer. A sample calculation is given in Appendix X1.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee G01 on Corrosionof Metals and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee G01.11 on Electrochemi-cal Measurements in Corrosion Testing.Current edition appro

16、quivalent WeightEquivalent weight, EW, may bethought of as the mass of metal in grams that will be oxidizedby the passage of one Faraday (96 489 6 2 C (amp-sec) ofelectric charge.NOTE 1The value of EW is not dependent on the unit system chosenand so may be considered dimensionless.For pure elements,

17、 the equivalent weight is given by:EW 5Wn(2)where:W = the atomic weight of the element, andn = the number of electrons required to oxidize an atom ofthe element in the corrosion process, that is, thevalence of the element.4.3 For alloys, the equivalent weight is more complex. It isusually assumed th

18、at the process of oxidation is uniform anddoes not occur selectively to any component of the alloy. If thisis not true, then the calculation approach will need to beadjusted to reflect the observed mechanism. In addition, somerationale must be adopted for assigning values of n to theelements in the

19、alloy because many elements exhibit more thanone valence value.4.4 To calculate the alloy equivalent weight, the followingapproach may be used. Consider a unit mass of alloy oxidized.The electron equivalent for1gofanalloy, Q is then:Q 5 (nifiWi(3)where:fi = the mass fraction of the ithelement in the

20、 alloy,Wi = the atomic weight of the ithelement in the alloy, andni = the valence of the ithelement of the alloy.Therefore, the alloy equivalent weight, EW, is the reciprocalof this quantity:EW 51(nifiWi(4)Normally only elements above 1 mass percent in the alloyare included in the calculation. In ca

21、ses where the actualanalysis of an alloy is not available, it is conventional to use themid-range of the composition specification for each element,unless a better basis is available. A sample calculation is givenin Appendix X2 (1).44.5 Valence assignments for elements that exhibit multiplevalences

22、can create uncertainty. It is best if an independenttechnique can be used to establish the proper valence for eachalloying element. Sometimes it is possible to analyze thecorrosion products and use those results to establish the propervalence. Another approach is to measure or estimate theelectrode

23、potential of the corroding surface. Equilibrium dia-grams showing regions of stability of various phases as afunction of potential and pH may be created from thermody-namic data. These diagrams are known as Potential-pH (Pour-baix) diagrams and have been published by several authors (2,3). The appro

24、priate diagrams for the various alloying elementscan be consulted to estimate the stable valence of each elementat the temperature, potential, and pH of the contacting electro-lyte that existed during the test.NOTE 2Some of the older publications used inaccurate thermody-namic data to construct the

25、diagrams and consequently they are in error.4.6 Some typical values of EW for a variety of metals andalloys are given in Table 1.4.7 Calculation of Corrosion RateFaradays Law can beused to calculate the corrosion rate, either in terms of penetra-tion rate (CR) or mass loss rate (MR) (4):CR 5 K1icorr

Values of 65 and620 mV are also co

31、mmonly used. In this case, the specimencurrent, DI, is measured after steady state occurs, and DE/DI iscalculated. Potentiodynamic measurements yield curves of Iversus E and the reciprocal of the slope of the curve (dE/dI) atthe corrosion potential is measured. In most programmable4The boldface numb

In this case, the polarization resistance is givenby dE/di at the corrosion potential and 5.2 is not applicable.5.2 It is necessary to multiply the dE/dI or DE/DI valuecalculated above by the

In general, Eq 7 and Eq 8 may be used,and the corrosion rate calculated by these two approximationsmay be used as lower and upper limits of the true rate.NOTE 4Electrodes exhibiting stable passivity will behave as if theanodic reaction were diffusion limited, except that the passive currentdensity is not affected by agitation.5.3.5 It is possible to estimate baand bcfrom the deviationfrom linearity of polarization curves in the 2050 mV regionaround the corrosion potential.
