Abstract
The corrosivity of different types of soil have been assessed by
exposing carbon-steel plates at 50 different locations in Denmark
for an extended period of time. The investigations included weight
loss measurements and analysis of the chemical compositions of the
corrosion products formed on the plates during exposure. An
electrochemical soil corrosion probe has been designed and
manufactured allowing for simultaneous measurements of several
qauntities to predict corrosion. The probe consists of individual
sections capable of measuring redox-potential, corrosion
potential, soil resistivity and hydrogen absorption rates. In
addition, traditional carbon-steel 3-electrode arrangements allow
for performance of any kind of electrochemical meaurement (EIS,
polarisation curves, LPR-measurements, galvanostatic pulse etc.).
