The invention discloses a rapid evaluation method for
atmospheric corrosion resistance of
weathering resistant steel and application thereof, the evaluation method comprises the following steps: S1, calculating an
atmospheric corrosion resistance index I of the
weathering resistant steel based on chemical components of the
weathering resistant steel according to the following formula: I = 26.01 Cu + 3.88 Ni + 1.20 Cr + 1.49 Si + 17.28 P-7. 29 Cu * Ni-9. 10 Ni * P-33.39 (Cu) 2, and if I is greater than or equal to 6.2, entering subsequent
test evaluation; s2, performing a neutral
salt spray test on the sample meeting the step S1 for 72 hours, then calculating the salt spray
corrosion rate, and if the salt spray
corrosion rate is less than or equal to 1.16 g / (m < 2 >. H), judging that the sample is qualified; s3, if the weathering resistant steel is used in the high-
humidity atmospheric environment, a periodic infiltration test needs to be carried out, and if the periodic infiltration
corrosion rate is smaller than or equal to 1.958 g / (m < 2 >. H), it is judged that the weathering resistant steel is applicable; and S4, if the weathering resistant steel is used for a typical atmospheric environment with high temperature,
high humidity and serious corrosion, an
atmospheric exposure test needs to be performed for 12 months, and if the stable corrosion rate is smaller than or equal to 0.031 g / (m < 2 >. H), it is judged that the weathering resistant steel is applicable. The weather-resistant steel corrosion performance
evaluation system is established by analyzing the
atmospheric corrosion resistance index of the weather-resistant steel and the corrosion results of different materials in different typical environments.
