ABSTRACT
Polarization curves were developed in seawater at low (quiescent) flow and at 2.4
m/s flow for nine structural alloys. Potentiostatically generated curves for up to 120 days
are compared with potentiodynamically generated curves at four scan rates with freely
corroding pre-exposures of I or 120 days. Smoothed curves successfully used in computer model predictions ofcathodic protection current and potential distributions are also
presented. These curves are compared with previously published data available for 800
days exposure and with cathodic protection current density design guidelines. Corrosion
rate data as a function ofpotential after up to 120 days exposure are also presented.

INTRODUCTION
Predicting the amount of galvanic corrosion and the current demand for cathodic
protection in seawater requires accurate polarization data for the materials involved.
Computer models that predict the distribution of galvanic corrosion, stray current corrosion, and cathodic protection also require accurate polarization data.
Rates of galvanic corrosion are commonly predicted using tables of galvanic compatibility,1 differences in corrosion potential between members of the galvanic couple
where the corrosion potentials are obtained from a list or chart,2 or by conducting relatively short-term exposures or electrochemical tests and extrapolating the results to apply
to the item in service.3-4 The first two methods are qualitative, providing only an indication of the tendency for corrosion damage in the galvanic couple. Unfortunately,
polarization curves for most structural materials in seawater are exposure-time dependent
and scan-rate dependent, making quantitative prediction from short-term exposures inaccurate.
Current densities for cathodic protection are frequently predicted from values found
in standards.5'6 These values, although based on long-term exposures, are not complete
polarization curves and are, therefore, not adequate for use in computer modeling.
The need for a single source of polarization curves for commonly used materials in
seawater and for a quantification of exposure time and scan rate effects led to this investigation. Although portions of these data have been presented elsewhere,7-12 this
document presents all of the data collected over the course of the investigation.
MATERIALS

Bronze composition M (C92200)
Titanium grade 50 (R50400)
Alloy 625 (N06625)
Anode grade zinc (MIL-A-18001J**).
Nominal compositions of the alloys tested appear in the following table. Corrosion samples were prepared by rough cutting blanks from the supplied bars or plates, milling to

APPARATUS AND PROCEDURE
QUIESCENT FLOW, POTENTIOSTATIC TESTS
For the short-term exposures (5 min and 1 day), specimens were 12.7 mm square by
6.2 mm thick. Exposures were performed sequentially in beakers of fully oxygenated natural seawater heated to a constant 30 C. For the long-term exposures, specimens were
25.4 mm square by 6.2 mm thick. Three specimens of identical material were exposed at
the same potential for different lengths of time connected to the same potentiostat. In this
way, all 30-, 60-, and 120-day exposures were conducted simultaneously. A series of individual exposure vessels was used to avoid ground loops or stray current effects (see
Figure 1). One hundred eight 4-L vessels were fitted into two wooden boxes lined with
thermal insulation. Heated, filtered natural seawater was drip-fed into each container to
maintain oxygen levels in the bulk solution at saturation and temperatures at 30 C.
Quiescent flow was maintained via the low refreshment rate. Corrosion coupons were
suspended in the exposure vessels by means of a threaded rod screwed into a hole tapped
into the specimen edge. This rod was also used for electrical contact to the specimen (see
Figure 2). Water was excluded from the electrical contact/mounting rod by means of a
glass tube and Teflon gasket. Platinum-coated counter electrodes were placed adjacent to
the specimen faces. Ag/AgCl reference electrodes were placed in the plane of the corrosion coupons, directly below the specimens. Some vessels contained three identical,
freely corroding specimens of each material for sequential removal at 30, 60, and 120
days. These vessels also contained reference electrodes, but no counter electrodes.
A bank of 70 potentiostats constructed for this experiment was located in an adjacent temperature-controlled room and was connected to the test cells through insulated
electrical leads. Potential and current readings were taken by a computerized data acquisition system. For the potentiostats employed, a plus or minus 5-mV variation in set
potential was maintained. A thermal instability coefficient of about 1 mV/C air temperature and IR (Current X Resistance) drop through the cabling was identified as the source
of these variations. Electrical leads from the specimen groups of three were connected in
series to 1-ohm resistors for current measurement as potential drop.
Fifteen to seventeen potentials were chosen for each material in potentiostatic polarization experiments. Exposures were conducted in several runs, each run consisting of
simultaneous testing of all materials over the 120-day period. Currents, potentials, and
temperatures were recorded once a minute for the first day of exposure, every 10 minutes
for the first week, and three times daily thereafter.
ASTM-recommended procedures for cleaning , drying, and massing were followed
for mass loss determinations.13 Special care was taken to ensure that the threaded hole
was dry prior to massing. Massing was performed to the nearest 0.1 mg.
QUIESCENT FLOW, POTENTIODYNAMIC TESTS
Exposure vessels and coupon mounting were the same as the potentiostatic exposures. Specimens were 12.7 mm square by 6.2 mm thick. Platinum-coated counter

electrodes and a saturated calomel reference electrode with Luggin probe were used.
Instrumentation consisted of an EG&G PAR (Princeton Applied Research) model 173
potentiostat with a log current converter and a model 175 programmer. An Apple computer was used for analog-to-digital conversions and for data storage and retrieval.
Specimens were studied under two conditions: 1-hr or 120-day pre-exposure at open
circuit potential in natural seawater. In general, test procedures followed ASTM Standard
G5.14 Separate specimens were independently polarized anodically and cathodically
starting at the corrosion potential. Duplicate specimens were tested at most scan rates.
The following four scan rates were used:
1. 0.5 V/hr (0.14 mV/s)
2. 5V/hr(1.4mV/s)
3. 50V/hr(14mV/s)
4. 100 V/hr (28 mV/s).
FLOWING TESTS
The test cell design for flowing seawater exposures is shown in Figures 3 to 5. The
direction of flow was parallel to the specimen length through a rectangular channel 2.54
cm high by 0.635 cm wide. Eight 1-cm square working electrodes and eight platinum
counter electrodes were mounted flush against the interior wall of the rectangular cross
section facing each other across opposite walls (see Figure 3). An insulated electrical lead
was attached to the dry back face of both counter and working electrodes. The same arrangement was used for potentiostatic and potentiodynamic testing. Reference electrode
ports were drilled through the top interior wall of all parallel plate cell positions (see Figure 3). Hydrostatic pressure forced seawater through a vinyl tube containing
microelectrodes. A 0.42-cm diameter Ag/AgCl microreference electrode was positioned
above the reference electrode port. A valve was positioned between the port and the reference electrode to allow air bubble removal.
Figure 4 shows a single flow-through cell test loop. Heated natural seawater was
pumped from a 70-L (17-gal) holding tank through the test cell and back to the tank. Filtered (8 |xm) natural seawater for refreshment was fed from a common 200-L (50-gal)
preheated makeup tank at a rate of 5 L/min to each holding tank in each loop, where it
was heated to 30 C plus or minus 3 C, and the excess allowed to overflow. The flow
velocity in the test cells was 2.4 m/s. Four flow-through cells were used (see Figure 5).
Concern for electrodeposition on a specimen "downstream" of metal lost from a specimen "upstream" led to careful consideration of specimen placement within each cell and
between the four test loops. Aluminum gutters were also placed in each holding tank.
Flow in this test setup was determined to be turbulent by Reynolds number analysis. Wall
shear stress was calculated to be 17.4 to 18.7 N/m2.
Six to nine potentials were chosen for each material in the potentiostatic tests. Only
single 120-day potentiostatic specimens were exposed. Anodically and cathodically polarized potentiodynamic specimens, pre-exposed for 120 days, were exposed in separate
cells. One-hour, pre-exposed potentiodynamic specimens were exposed in individual
flow-through cells. Potentiodynamic scans were conducted at two scan rates: 0.5 and 5
V/hr (0.14 and 1.4 mV/s, respectively).

trapolated to estimate attack depths after 1 yr. Corrosion rates reported are based on metal
loss and surface area and, therefore, do not reflect localization of corrosion.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
The results of this investigation are contained in the polarization curves in Appendixes A through I. Detailed descriptions of the behavior of each material, flow, type of
polarization, exposure duration, scan rate, etc., would be too lengthy to state here. Some
general results are that scan rate and pre-exposure time have a significant effect on potentiodynamic polarization behavior. Exposure time has a large effect on potentiostatic
polarization behavior. The polarization current usually levels out after 30 days under
quiescent conditions, except at the most negative potentials where the assumed buildup of
calcareous deposits allows for continued current decay, even up to 120 days. Under
quiescent conditions, the cathodic behavior of all materials is roughly the same, with a
constant current density of about 10 uA/cm2 at potentials well below the corrosion potential and above approximately -900 mV. Flowing potentiostatic data have too much scatter
to make many conclusions other than that current densities are typically significantly
higher than under quiescent conditions. None of the potentiodynamic curves, even those
after a 120-day pre-exposure, resemble the long-term potentiostatic curves sufficiently to
be used for accurate prediction of galvanic or cathodic protection behavior.
Appendix J contains curves showing corrosion rate from mass loss, normalized to 1
yr, of each material except Ti-50 and Alloy 625, which had no measurable mass loss under quiescent flow conditions as a function of exposure time and potential.
Appendix K contains the smoothed 120-day potentiostatic polarization curves used
as boundary conditions for a boundary element model of a 16-m-long, cathodically protected barge in seawater.15 In that paper, the potential and current distributions predicted
by the boundary element model accurately matched those measured on a real barge. This
means that the curves used in the model were representative of the long-term performance of the materials on the barge.
Another study was performed on many of the same materials as this study by Foster
and Moores at the Defence Research Establishment Pacific in Canada.16 Their study was
conducted in water at 9 C for time periods up to 2,000 days exposure, although only data
up to 800 days were reported. Potentials used were as low as -1,100 mV vs. Ag/AgCl.
Only average current densities over the entire test were reported. These are replotted in a
format consistent with the data generated in this study in Appendix L. Foster and
Moores' data are very similar to the long-term potentiostatic data generated here, but
their-1,100-mV specimens usually had significantly higher current densities than the
-1,100-mV specimens from the current study reported in Appendixes A through I.
Comparison of HY-80 steel data from these studies to actual cathodic protection
design current density and potential ranges for steel is instructive. Design data from
NACE International,5 technical guidance from the Naval Sea Systems Command,6 and
several Norwegian and United Kingdom design guidelines, as reported by Wyatt,17 are
shown in Appendix M. While all design guidelines recommend protection to -800 mV
vs. Ag/AgCl, the design current densities used range over more than an order of magnitude, centered roughly around the 10-uA/cm2 value from the steel data in Appendix A.
The data in Appendix A are, therefore, consistent with design practice.
CARDIVNSWC-TR-61 94/44
CONCLUSIONS
None of the potentiodynamic curves resembles the long-term potentiostatic curves
sufficiently to be used for accurate prediction of galvanic or cathodic protection behavior.
Adequate prediction requires the use of long-term, potentiostatically derived polarization
curves. Data are presented that have been successfully used to predict cathodic protection
current and potential distribution on a large structure. Data from this study are in agreement with data from other investigators and with cathodic protection current density
design guidelines from several countries.

AGENCY REPORT NUMBER
Polarization curves were developed in seawater at low (quiescent) flow and at 2.4 m/s
flow for nine structural alloys. Potentiostatically generated curves for up to 120 days are
compared with potentiodynamically generated curves at four scan rates with freely corroding
pre-exposures of 1 or 120 days. Smoothed curves successfully used in computer model predictions of cathodic protection current and potential distributions are also presented. These
curves are compared with previously published data available for 800 days exposure and
with cathodic protection current density design guidelines. Corrosion rate data as a function
of potential after up to 120 days exposure are also presented.
