seawater at 105 C, the pit depth was only 0.12 mm [7]. The
corrosion rate and pitting potential of stainless steels in
seawater are the functions of Cr and Ni content, also the
presence of alloys elements such Co, Mo and N has
significant and beneficial influence on the pitting and crevice
corrosion resistance of stainless steels [8]. The decease in
corrosion rate of low alloy steels over the longer periods was
more gradual than that which was observed over the first year
of exposure [9]. To prevent pitting and crevice corrosion in
austenitic stainless steel, 8% of molybdenum content is
required whereas for ferritic stainless steels, the amount is
approximately 25% chromium with 3.3% molybdenum [10].
In this paper the effect of different seawater levels on the
corrosion behavior of some structural alloys has been studied.
Also, the influence of exposure time on corrosion rate is
evaluated.
Rangkuman:
Effect of Seawater Level on Corrosion Behavior of
Different Alloys merupakan percobaan terhadap spesimen
Baja karbon (G1010 dan 1020), Austenit stainless steel (AISI
304, 316L SS), paduan tembaga (90/10 Cu/Ni dan 70/30
Cu/Ni) dan paduan berbasis nikel (Incoloy 825 dan Inconel
625) yang diletakkan di tiga lokasi yaitu diatas permukaan air
laut, setengah terendam air laut dan sepenuhnya terendam air
laut. Percobaan ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi pengaruh
tingkat air laut terhadap perilaku korosi paduan yang berbeda.
Percobaan ini menunjukkan bahwa laju korosi dari
baja karbon G1020l memiliki laju korosi tertinggi di semua
lokasi (tiga kedalaman berbeda: diatas permukaan air laut,
setengah terendam air laut dan sepenuhnya terendam air laut) .
Sedangkan laju korosi terendah dimiliki oleh paduan Inconel
625.
