The invention discloses a testing method for simulating a
corrosion process of
carbon steel in an atmospheric environment with different
ultraviolet radiation intensities, and belongs to the technicalfield of
atmosphere corrosion simulation. The testing method comprises the following steps: taking
carbon steel as a testing material, depositing a
corrosion liquid on the surface of a
test sample inadvance,
drying, repeating procedures of 'condensation for two hours and
radiation for 4 hours' once every six hours, and setting testing temperatures, namely 40-60 DEG C in the condensation procedure and 45-80 DEG C in the
radiation procedure. By adjusting the
ultraviolet radiation intensities of the radiation procedure, the influence of high, medium and low
ultraviolet radiation intensities upon the corrosion process of the
carbon steel is simulated. The temperature of the radiation procedure is controlled to be higher than the
room temperature, and thus an actual temperature on the surfaceof the sample is ensured. The testing method has
simulation, acceleration quality and reproducibility, and can be used for studying corrosion behaviors of different types of carbon steel in atmospheric environments with different
ultraviolet radiation intensities, the service life of a material can be also evaluated and predicted, and a basis can be made for reasonably selecting materials and appropriate protection methods.
