Abstract
In the marine environment, the surface of X80 steel under cathodic protection is highly prone to forming a dense calcium-magnesium deposit layer and adsorbing a large amount of Shewanella algae (S. algae), thus facing a severe risk of under-deposit microbial corrosion. This paper investigates the effect of the S. algae and calcium-magnesium deposit layer on the corrosion behavior of X80 steel. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis (XPS), and electrochemical techniques were utilized. Research findings indicate that the corrosion process was significantly reduced in the presence of S. algae compared to the calcium-magnesium deposit layer. When both coexist, they synergistically inhibit corrosion in the initial stage; however, prolonged immersion leads to the disruption of the calcium-magnesium deposit layer by S. algae’s metabolic activities, eliminating their synergistic inhibitory effect and resulting in a corrosion rate surpassing the media containing only S. algae.
期刊介绍:
Materials and Design is a multi-disciplinary journal that publishes original research reports, review articles, and express communications. The journal focuses on studying the structure and properties of inorganic and organic materials, advancements in synthesis, processing, characterization, and testing, the design of materials and engineering systems, and their applications in technology. It aims to bring together various aspects of materials science, engineering, physics, and chemistry.
The journal explores themes ranging from materials to design and aims to reveal the connections between natural and artificial materials, as well as experiment and modeling. Manuscripts submitted to Materials and Design should contain elements of discovery and surprise, as they often contribute new insights into the architecture and function of matter.
