Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of material corrosion test, in particular to a corrosion exposure test device for simulating variable-depth and variable-period deep water retention environment. BACKGROUND

[0002] Deep-sea mineral resources are very rich, and the development of mineral resources has great strategic significance. Exploring and exploiting these resources requires the development of a large number of new marine engineering equipment. The environmental conditions such as pressure, temperature, pH value, dissolved oxygen, and biological fouling in deep sea are quite different from those in shallow sea. The extremely complex marine environment makes deep-sea equipment prone to electrochemical corrosion. The corrosion problem of deep-sea equipment materials has attracted more and more attention. High-strength steel, stainless steel, copper alloy, aluminum alloy, titanium alloy and their connecting parts, and other structures are widely used in surface ships, underwater facilities and deep-sea equipment. Once the corrosion problem of these facilities and equipment occurs, it is likely to cause structural failure, leading to serious consequences. In addition, the key structures of many deep-sea equipment are in a working state that withstands deep-sea high pressure but is isolated from deep-sea environmental disturbances such as seawater flow and seabed bubbles. This requires the design of a deep-sea retention environment to simulate the working environment of the key structure of deep-sea equipment, so as to more truly study the corrosion state of the structure. Studying the deep-sea corrosion behavior of materials and structures, especially the in-situ electrochemical corrosion characteristics, is of great significance for evaluating the deep-sea environmental adaptability of equipment, predicting the service life, and thus ensuring the safe and reliable operation of equipment.

[0003] The existing deep-sea retention test device, such as the full-sea depth simulation friction corrosion test device disclosed in the patent with the authorization announcement number CN106546505B, is mainly composed of a high-pressure kettle, an electrochemical workstation, a reference motor assembly, and a working electrode package. When in use, the device has the functions of electrochemical measurement and electrochemical protection under pressure environment, especially under ultra-high pressure environment. Compared with traditional friction and wear test devices, it can simultaneously perform friction and wear and dynamic corrosion measurement, thereby evaluating the proportion of wear and corrosion in material failure, and exploring the interaction rules and failure characteristics between wear and corrosion of materials in marine environment.
