Abstract

A seawater pipe of the engine room in the ships is being surrounded with severely corrosive environments caused by fast flowing of the seawater, containing aggressive chloride ion and high conductivity etc.. Therefore, the leakage of the seawater from its pipe have been often occurred due to its local corrosion by aggressive chloride ions. Subsequently, its leakage area is usually welded by AC shielded metal arc welding with various electrodes. In this study, when the sea water pipe is welded with several types of electrodes such as E4301, E4311, E4313 and E4316, a difference of the corrosion resistance on the welding metal zones was investigated using an electrochemical method, observing microstructure, measuring polarization behaviors and hardness. The weld metal zone welded with E4313 electrode exhibited the lowest value of hardness compared to other weld metal zones. In addition, its zone indicated also the best corrosion resistance than those of other weld metal zones. Furthermore, all of the weld metal zones revealed a relatively better corrosion resistance than those of the base metal zones. and also showed higher hardness than the base metal zones.

선박 기관실의 해수 배관은 염소이온 농도와 전기 전도성이 높은 해수가 빠른 속도로 유동하는 환경에 놓여 있게 된다. 따라서 부식성이 강한 염소 이온으로 인해 배관 내부에 국부 부식이 발생하여 해수가 누설되는 경우가 종종 발생하고 있다. 그래서 해수 배관의 누설 부위에 대해 일반적으로 선박 내에서 여러 가지 피복아크용접봉을 사용하여 교류 아크용접기로 보수용접을 한다. 본 연구에서는 해수파이프 등에 E4301, E4311, E4313 및 E4316과 같은 피복아크용접봉으로 용접한 경우, 용접부위에 대해 영역별로 내식성 차이를 전기화학적 방법으로 비교 분석하고, 각각의 용접부위에 대한 미세조직 관찰 및 미소 비커스 경도를 측정하였다. E4313의 용접봉을 사용한 용접부가 다른 용접봉을 사용한 용접부에 비해 가장 낮은 경도 값을 나타내었으나 내식성은 가장 우수하게 나타나고 있다. 그리고 용접봉의 종류에 관계없이 용접부는 모재보다 상대적으로 내식성이 더 우수하였고, 경도도 더 높은 값을 나타내었다.
