Description:
|
Course aim: The aim of the course is to gain knowledge about various types of materials and their physical and chemical properties important for their practical applications. Students will learn about the mechanisms of corrosion processes in dependence of material chemical and physical properties and features of the corrosion environment as well as how to slow down deterioration of metallic material by application of appropriate protection method.
The contents of the course:
1. Introduction. Use and understanding of different materials through the history. Chemical properties of metals. Corrosion and its causes. Basic electrochemical terms related to corrosion processes. Corrosion mechanisms: chemical and electrochemical corrosion.
2.Thermodynamics of corrosion - Pourbaix diagram. Passivity and immunity. Types of corrosion based on the corrosion damage. Special forms of corrosion.
3.Types of corrosion based on the properties of corrosive environment. Atmospheric corrosion. Corrosion in soil. Marine corrosion. Corrosion in concrete. Corrosion in human body.
4. Kinetics of corrosion processes. Corrosion testing- non electrochemical methods.
5. Electrochemical methods for corrosion testing. Corrosion monitoring.
6. Corrosion prevention by design. Electrochemical methods for corrosion protection - anodic and cathodic protection.
7. Modification of the corrosion environment. Removal of corrosion activator. Corrosion inhibitors.
8. Preliminary exam
9. Coatings for corrosion protection. Surface preparation for application of coatings. Metallic coatings and method of their application.
10. Inorganic coatings. Enamel, oxide and phosphate coatings. Ceramic coatings. Organic coatings. Basic components of organic coatings. Methods of application and quality control.
11. Physical properties of different structural materials. Crystalline and amorphous structure. Mechanical properties of structural materials.
12. Development of structural materials through the history. Key properties of metallic materials. Categorization of metallic materials. Iron and steels.
13. Aluminium. Copper and its alloys. Zinc, tin, lead, titanium, magnesium, nickel, chromium. Noble metals. Inorganic structural materials.
14. Organic structural materials- wood and polymeric materials. Composites. Smart materials and structures. Nanomaterials.
15. Preliminary exam
