Corrosion Engineering
The branch of Engineering that deals with the study of corrosion mechanisms and to prevent or control it economically and safely.
05/02/2023 11:19 PM Department of Chemistry, UPES 9
FACTS ABOUT CORROSION• a natural process.• an electrochemical process.• Corrosion leads to tremendous loss. It can’t be
eliminated completely. However, its extent can be minimized.
• Corrosion is exactly the reverse of extraction of metals and also known as weeping of metals.

THEORIES OF CORROSION
1. Direct chemical attack theory (Chemical corrosion or dry corrosion) By direct attack of gas in absence of a liquid or
electrolyte• Insoluble corrosion product – further corrosion is
checked. eg. Attack of Cl2 or I2 on Ag• soluble or liquid corrosion product – further corrosion
is continued. eg. in the de-tinning of metal cans
05/02/2023 11:19 PM Department of Chemistry, UPES 12
Types of chemical corrosion
i) Oxidation Corrosion 2M 2Mn+ + 2ne- (oxidation) n/2O2 + 2ne- nO2- (reduction) 2M + n/2O2 2Mn+ + nO2-
Metal oxide
05/02/2023 11:19 PM Department of Chemistry, UPES 13
Take examples of Fe, Mg and Al
05/02/2023 11:19 PM Department of Chemistry, UPES 14
Case I: When metal ion diffuses faster outward:In this case oxide layer is formed at the metal oxide – gas or scale – gas interface. eg. In FeO, CoO, NiO, Cu2O
05/02/2023 11:19 PM Department of Chemistry, UPES 15
Case II: When oxygen diffuses inward: In this case oxide layer is formed at the metal- scale interface or metal – metal oxide interface. eg in ZnO, CdO, TiO2 etc
05/02/2023 11:19 PM Department of Chemistry, UPES 16
Nature of metal oxide layer a) Stable film –An impervious layer is formed, which
checks further oxidation corrosion. e.g. oxide films on Al, Sn, Pb, Cu, Pt etc. b) Unstable film- Metal oxide Metal + O2
O2
e.g. in Au and Ag
05/02/2023 11:19 PM Department of Chemistry, UPES 17
c) Volatile film: oxide layer volatilizes leaving the underlying metal surface for further attack.
E.g. molybdenum oxide (MoO3) is volatile.
O2
d) Porous film: atmospheric O2 have access to the underlying surface of metal.
05/02/2023 11:19 PM Department of Chemistry, UPES 18
Pilling Bedworth rule
If the volume of metal oxide ≥ volume of metal,Oxide layer is protective or non-porous
e.g. Al If Volume of metal oxide < volume of metal,
Oxide layer is porouse.g. Alkali and alkaline earth metals
05/02/2023 11:19 PM Department of Chemistry, UPES 19
ii) Corrosion by other gases: by CO2, SO2,Cl2,H2S,
Extent of corrosion depends upon • the chemical affinity between metal and the gas • the nature of the film formed on the surface.
05/02/2023 11:19 PM Department of Chemistry, UPES 20
Factors affecting chemical corrosion
1. Nature of the metal
i) Position in the Galvanic seriesii) Relative areas of anode and cathodeiii) Purity of metaliv) Solubility of corrosion productsvi) Volatility of corrosion products
05/02/2023 11:19 PM Department of Chemistry, UPES 21
protective or non-porous. eg. AgCl layer formed by the attack of Cl2 on Ag( this is a protective layer) Film non-protective or porous. eg. i) formation of volatile SnCl4 by the attack of dry Cl2 on Sn.(de-tinning) ii) in petroleum industry, H2S at high T attacks steel forming porous FeS scale
05/02/2023 11:19 PM Department of Chemistry, UPES 22
iii) Liquid metal corrosion- occurs due to the chemical action of flowing liquid metal at high T on solid metal or alloy. Possible processes are:• Dissolution of a solid metal by a liquid metal• Internal penetration of the liquid metal into the solid metal
05/02/2023 11:19 PM Department of Chemistry, UPES 23
Wet or electrochemical corrosion (Electrochemical theory)
Two essential requirements are: i) Formation of anodic and cathodic areas ii) Electrical contact between the cathodic and anodic
parts to enable the conduction of electrons Mechanism i)Anodic reactions M(s) Mn+
(aq) + ne- (oxidation) Fe(s) Fe2+

(e)In neutral or alkaline medium in the presence of O2
O2 + 2H2O + 4e- 4OH-(such type of corrosion involving O2 is called oxygen type corrosion)
05/02/2023 11:19 PM Department of Chemistry, UPES 26
e.g. Rusting of iron occurs by O2 in the presence of aqueous solution At anode Fe Fe2+ 2e-
At cathode 1/2O2 + H2O + 2e- 2OH-
Overall reaction Fe + 1/2O2 + H2O Fe2+ + 2OH- or Fe(OH)2

Electrochemical series Galvanic series
The arrangement of metals and non-metals in increasing order The arrangement of metals and alloys in their standard reduction potential is known as decreasing order of their corroding electrochemical series
tendency in an unpolluted sea water is known as galvanic series.
It contains metals and non-metals It contains metals and alloys.
It is an ideal series It is a practical series
ECS is based upon the electrode potential which This series is based on actual is determined by using Nernst equation corrosion rate
Position of metals is fixed in ECS Position of a given metal in Galvanicseries may change
It gives no idea about the position of alloys It gives clear idea about the position of alloys
It gives information about the It gives information about the displacement tendencies relative corrosion tendencies

[IV] Differential aeration Corrosion (Oxygen Concentration Cell Corrosion)
• One part of the metal is exposed to a different air/O2 concentration from the rest of the part.
• Portion with lesser O2 = Anode
• Portion with more O2 = Cathode• e.g. A iron nail inside the wood undergoes
corrosion easily

[V] Waterline Corrosion
05/02/2023 11:19 PM Department of Chemistry, UPES 41
[VI] Micro-Biological Corrosion :Due to metabolic activity of various micro-organisms[VII] Stress-Corrosion Cracking•Metal under stress becomes more anodic and tend to increase the rate of corrosion.•The stress can be due to non-uniform deformation by unequal cooling from high temperature as in welding
05/02/2023 11:19 PM Department of Chemistry, UPES 42
Stress corrosion
Caustic embrittlement:Occurs in steam boilers at crevicesDue to usage of Na2CO3 during softening Na2CO3 + H2O → 2NaOH + CO
This NaOH accumulates in the crevices and reacts with Fe to form sodium ferrate.
2Na2FeO2 +4H2O → 6NaOH + Fe3O4 + H2

Concentration cell formation
Fe | Conc.NaOH || dil.NaOH | Fe anode cathode
• At anode iron undergoes oxidation
05/02/2023 11:19 PM Department of Chemistry, UPES 44
Factors affecting corrosion
1. Metallic factors: a) anodic and cathodic areas: smaller anodes corrode faster b) electrode potentials: more difference, more corrosion c) hydrogen over voltage and the presence of impurities d) Physical state of the metal
05/02/2023 11:19 PM Department of Chemistry, UPES 45
2. Nature of environment
i) Temperature: Rate of chemical reaction and rate of diffusion increases with temperature
ii) Presence of moisture:Critical humidity is the relative humidity above which the atmospheric corrosion rate of metal increases sharply
(iii)Presence of impurities in atmosphere: due to CO2, H2S, SO2 etc in the vicinity of industrial area
05/02/2023 11:19 PM Department of Chemistry, UPES 46
(iii)Effect of pH: corrosion is faster in acidic medium rather than in basic medium
(iv)Nature of ions present: Chloride ions present in the medium destroy the passive film, while silicate in the medium leads to the formation of insoluble film over the metal surface.
(v) Concentration of O2

in the powdered coating metal and is heated to a temperature just below the m.p. of more fusible metal, so that an alloy layer is formed over the surface.
05/02/2023 11:19 PM Department of Chemistry, UPES 58
Metallic coating are of two types:Sacrificial coatingNoble coating
Sacrificial coating Noble coatingBase metal is coated with a metal which is Base metal is coated with a more reactive than the base metal. metal which is more noble than the base metal.Protects the underlying base metal sacrificially. Protects the underlying base metal
due to its noble character and higher corrosion resistance.
This is known as anodic coating as the reduction This is known as cathodic coating aspotential of coating metal is less than that the reduction potential of coating the base metal. Metal is more than that of the base metal
Zn, Cd, Al are generally used as sacrificial coating Ni, Ag, Cr, Pb, Au etc. are generally used as noble coating
E.g. Galvanised iron i.e. coating of Zn E.g. coating of Sn on Feon Fe.
