The 4 hazards of salt spray corrosion test

The 4 hazards of salt spray corrosion test


 China's annual economic loss caused by corrosion of at least 20 billion. The great harm of corrosion is not only reflected in the economic loss, but also brings significant casualties, environmental pollution, waste of resources, impede the development of new technologies and promote the loss of natural resources.

The background and mechanism of salt spray corrosion.


It is caused by the environment of corrosive substances or the destruction or degradation of their properties. Most corrosion occurs in the atmospheric environment, which contains corrosive components and oxygen, humidity, temperature changes, pollutants and other factors.


Salt spray corrosion is a common and destructive atmospheric corrosion. Salt spray refers to the chloride atmosphere, and its main corrosive component is sodium chloride. Salt spray corrosion on the surface of metal materials is caused by the electrochemical reaction of chloride ions through the oxidation layer and protective layer on the metal surface and inside the metal. At the same time, chloride ions contain a certain amount of hydration energy, easily adsorbed in the metal surface pores and cracks extrusion and replace the oxygen in the chloride layer, so that insoluble oxides into soluble chloride, so that the passivated surface into an active surface, the product has an extremely bad adverse reaction.


Anode:The metal loses electrons and becomes a metal cation, which enters the solution as a hydrated ion while leaving a considerable number of electrons in the metal.

Cathode:The remaining electrons left in the cathode metal are depolarized by oxygen, reduced and absorbed into hydroxide ions.

Electrolyte:Sodium chloride dissociates to produce sodium ions and chloride ions, and some chloride ions, metal ions and hydroxide ions react to produce metal corrosive.

How to eliminate the safety hazards of xenon lamp test chamber? How to eliminate the xenon lamp test chamber safety hazards? xenon lamp test chamber has the following safety protection systems. 1. refrigeration system: leak detection test, compressor overheating, compressor overpressure; 2. Humidification system: heating tube dry burn, abnormal water supply, water shortage alarm; 3. Circuit system: over temperature protection, fan motor overheating, overall equipment under phase / reverse phase, overall equipment timing, leakage protection, overload and short circuit protection. When installing the xenon lamp test chamber, pay attention to the following points to ensure personal safety: 1. Power supply: The power supply of the equipment uses a three-phase five-wire system, and the equipment cable is four-core wire, three phase wires, and one neutral wire. Please pay attention to the distinction between neutral wires. Because part of the load and control system of the equipment is singl...

Tips for choosing an Ozone ageing chamber

图片
Tips for choosing an Ozone ageing chamber : The choice of environmental temperature: some products need to be tested in a temperature environment of minus degrees Celsius ozone resistance test, some are tested at room temperature, and some are tested at high temperatures. Users just need to understand their own products to test the common test temperature can be. It is important to note that testing at room temperature is more common. Conditions can be placed in the Ozone aging chamber premises equipped with air conditioning systems, it is recommended that users choose the test chamber with a refrigeration system when purchasing, to avoid the summer test, the temperature is too high resulting in inaccurate results. Chamber volume selection: because the Ozone aging chamber chamber materials and ozone concentration control accuracy difficulties will have a corresponding increase, so as long as the test products can be accommodated on, too large chamber will only cause waste.
