Atmospheric Corrosion Environment
Atmospheric Corrosion of Steel Structures
Exposed steel structures in everyday environments face continuous degradation from atmospheric factors, including sunlight, wind, precipitation, and cyclic temperature/humidity variations. Oxygen and moisture are primary corrosion accelerators, while industrial pollutants (SO₂, CO₂, NO₂, Cl₂, H₂S, NH₃) - even in trace amounts - significantly exacerbate material deterioration. Notably, SO₂ induces severe corrosive effects, and chloride ions (Cl⁻) destabilize protective passive films, triggering electrochemical corrosion. This progressive damage leads to substantial resource waste, economic losses, and potential safety hazards.
Common Atmospheric Corrosion Environment
Bridge
The bridge is suffering from corrosion in environments such as heat and humidity, acid rain, salt spray, industrial atmosphere, and marine atmosphere.
Corrosion, the design requires anti-corrosion years, decoration, gloss and color retention, easy maintenance
Airport
The bridge is suffering from corrosion in environments such as heat and humidity, acid rain, salt spray, industrial atmosphere, and marine atmosphere.
Corrosion, the design requires anti-corrosion years, decoration, gloss and color retention, easy maintenance
Venue
Steel structure is a structure mainly composed of steel materials, connected by bolts or rivets. The steel structure of stadiums is commonly used to form a long-term anti-corrosion structure with aggravating corrosion paint, or it is coated with supporting heavy anti-corrosion paint for protection
