摘要
We studied atmospheric corrosion on Rapa Nui Island, using galvanized and non-galvanized SAE 1020 steel samples exposed on racks. We also added Charpy samples of both materials to directly determine the effect of corrosion rate on these materials' impact toughness. The results indicated a correlation between corrosion rate and toughness loss in the studied materials. In the corrosion study, we could also demonstrate the effect from increased insular population growth on con-taminants which aid atmospheric corrosivity. Results showed that atmospheric SO2 has tripled compared with similar corrosion studies done 20 years ago (Mapa Iberoamericano de Corrosi & PRIME;on, MICAT), increasing corrosion rates. Our results show how human factors can influence changes in environmental variables that strengthen corrosion.
