Abstract  

The failure behavior of epoxy powder coating and solvent-free epoxy liquid coating in simulated ultra-deep-sea environment for 480 h was studied by means of EIS and LEIS, while by applied alternating pressures within ranges 0.1-20 and 0.1-30 MPa respectively. The effect of alternating pressure on the corrosion resistance of coatings in deep-sea was examined, and the surface morphology of the coating/Q345 steel interface after immersion was characterized by SEM. The results show that the failure process of the two coatings is obvious under the alternating pressure of 0.1-30 MPa. After 480 h of pressured immersion, the impedance value of the epoxy powder coating decreased by 2 and 1 orders of magnitude after 480 h immersion at 0.1-30 and 0.1-20 MPa alternating pressures, respectively, and the impedance value of the solvent-free epoxy liquid coating decreased by 3 and 2 orders of magnitude respectively after immersion in the same environment. It shows that the epoxy powder coating has better protection performance to the Q345 steel in the condition of alternating pressure, and the ability to block ion penetration is stronger. According to the LEIS results, the failure behavior of the coating gradually spreads from local sites to the whole area under the alternating pressure, and the greater the alternating pressure, the faster the spread rate of the localized damage of the coating.
