The atmospheric corrosion behaviour and properties degradation law of 1Cr17Ni2 high-strength boltexposed in marine and industrial atmosphere environments up to 36 months were investigated in virtueof scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffractmeter(XRD), potentiodynamic polarization curve (PPC), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS),optical microscope (OM), tensile strength test, double shear strength test and tension fatigue test. Thetest results showed that, compared with industrial atmosphere environment, high-strength bolt exhibitedhigher corrosion susceptibility in marine atmosphere environment. Lepidocrocite and goethite were themajor constituents of the rust layer in two types of atmosphere environments, and chlorides and sulphateswere detected in marine atmosphere environment and industrial atmosphere environment, respectively.Electrochemical corrosion analysis showed that the anti-corrosive properties of different parts were inthis order: screw part > thread part > joint between thread and screw, resulting that the corrosion extentof the screw part was the lightest among three parts. The results of mechanical properties test indicatedthat the tension fatigue life decreased distinctly with the prolongation of the exposure time in two typesof atmosphere environments, and the losses in tension fatigue life of 1Cr17Ni2 high-strength boltexposed in marine atmosphere environment was much larger than that of 1Cr17Ni2 high-strength boltexposed in industrial atmosphere environment. Tensile strength and double shear strength did not presentvisible decrease during the exposure time of 36 months..
