Corrosion Testing, Lifetime Prediction, and Corrosion Sensor Development for Coated Aircraft Systems - Emphasis on Environmentally Compliant Practices

摘要

The work in this report summarizes a four year, multi-disciplinary effort at North Dakota State University funded as a University Research Initiative grant that was part of a major funding program at AFOSR to address these needs. This study, entitled 'Corrosion Testing, Lifetime Prediction, and Corrosion Sensor Development for Coated Aircraft Systems - Emphasis on Environmentally Compliant Practices', had as its goals the following: Improved Testing of Corrosion Protection of Coatings by ENM (electrochemical noise methods) and ElS (electrochemical impedance spectroscopy) Improved Lifetime Prediction of Coated Metal Systems Electrochemistry and SPM Microstructure Measurements at Metal/Polymer Interfaces, Development of New Data Analysis Methods, In-Situ Sensor Development Studies, and Improved Film Transport Property Characterization.
