Corrosion thermal activation energy

Sharma et al. [153] have devised a gentle accelerated corrosion test using a kinetic rate equation to establish appropriate acceleration factors due to relative humidity and thermal effects. Using an estimate for the thermal activation energy of 0.6 eV and determining the amount of adsorbed water by a BET analysis on Au, Cu and Ni, they obtain an acceleration factor of 154 at 65°C/80% RH with respect to 25 °C/35-40% RH. [Pg.278]

Examples of their results [154] are shown in the set of curves in Fig. 13. At a given humidity, the Co concentration increases with T the thermal activation energy is about 0.4 eV. At a given temperature, the corrosion increases with an increase in humidity. As the humidity changes from 30 to 90%, the corrosion rate increases about an order of magnitude. The data allow a calculation of the acceleration factors for a variety of conditions. For example, the acceleration factor for 90°C/90% RH with respect to 30°C/40% RH is calculated to be 150. If the product passes a 2-week exposure to 90 °C/90% RH, the test indicates that it will survive in excess of 6 years at 30 °C/40% RH. The values of the acceleration factors, however, may vary from film to film. [Pg.279]
