The most common corrosion phenomenon is rust formation on the iron surfaces. The corrosion rates and types depend on the che
8、mical conditions in the aqueous solution. The Eh-pH-diagram of an Fe-H2O-system may easily be created as described in Chapter 17. The chemical system specification is shown in Fig.1 and the calculated diagram in Fig. 2. The stability areas may be divided into three groups13:1. Corrosion area: Format
9、ion of ions means that metal dissolves into an aqueous solution. For example, Fe(+3a), Fe(+2a), FeO2(-a) and HFeO2(-a)-ions in an Fe-H2O-system.2. Passive area: Formation of oxides or some other condensed compounds may create tight film (impermeable) on the metal surface which passivates the surface
10、, good examples are Al2O3 on aluminium or TiO2 on titanium surfaces. If the oxide layer is not tight enough (porous) to prevent oxygen diffusion into the metal surface, corrosion may continue. This is the case with the most of the iron oxides but they may also cause passivation in favourable conditi
11、ons.3. Immunity area: All metals are stable if the electrochemical potential is low enough. Most noble metals are stable even at zero potential, but at least 0.6 volts are needed at the cathode for iron to precipitate, see Fig. 2. The stability areas of water are shown by dotted blue lines in Eh-pH-
12、diagrams, see Fig. 2, the colors can not be seen in this B&W copy. Usually it is difficult to exceed these limits due to the formation of oxygen at the upper limit and hydrogen at the lower limit. In some solutions these limits may be exceeded due the necessary overpotential of hydrogen and oxygen f
13、ormation. On the basis of Fig. 2 it seems that hydrogen formation occurs on cathode before the metallic iron comes stable. The Eh-pH-diagrams may be used in several ways, for example, - to find pH, potential and temperature regions which prevent corrosion.- to find out which compounds are the corros
14、ion reaction products.- to find immune materials which can be used as protective coating.- to find out a metal which may corrode instead of the constructive material. For example, the zinc layer on a steel surface.Fig. 1. Specification of Fe-H2O-system for EpH-diagram at 25 C.Fig. 2. Eh-pH Diagram o
15、f Fe-H2O-system at 25 C. Molality of Fe is 10-6 M.EpH Case 2: Corrosion Inhibitors in Fe-Cr-H2O-system Some elements or compounds may prevent corrosion even at very low content in the chemical system. These substances are called corrosion inhibitors and they can be divided into anodic and cathodic i
16、nhibitors. The anodic inhibitors primarily prevent the anodic reaction and passivate metals in this way, the latter ones suppress the corrosion rate by preventing the cathodic reaction or by reducing the cathodic area 13. Chromate and dichromate ions are well known anodic corrosion inhibitors. Small
17、 amounts of chromates will create a tight complex oxide film on the steel surface which prevents corrosion. The oxide film is mainly formed of magnetite (Fe3O4), hematite (Fe2O3) and chromic oxide (Cr2O3). The inhibitor behavior of chromates may be illustrated with Eh-pH-diagrams. The Fe-Cr-H2O-syst
18、em specifications are shown in Fig. 3. The calculation results for Fe-H2O and Fe-Cr-H2O-systems are shown in Figs 4 and 5. As shown in the diagrams, a large area in the corrosion region of iron Fe(+2a), Fig. 4, is covered by the Cr2O3 and Cr2FeO4 stability areas and thus protected from corrosion, Fi
19、g. 5.It is easy to create Eh-pH-diagrams with the EpH module. However, you should remember that this type diagram greatly simplifies the real situation. They do not take into account, for example, the kinetic aspects or non-ideality of real solutions. Small errors in the basic thermochemical data ma
20、y also have a visible effect on the location of the stability areas. In any case, these diagrams give valuable qualitative information of the chemical reactions in aqueous systems in brief and illustrative form.Fig. 3.

Molalities: Fe and Cr 10-2 M, pressure 1 bar.EpH Case 3: Selection of Leaching ConditionsThe first step in a hydrometallurgical process is usually leaching or dissolution of the raw materials in aqueous solution.
22、The aim is to select the most suitable leaching conditions so that the valuable metals dissolve and the rest remain in the solid residue. The leaching conditions may easily be estimated with Eh-pH-diagrams. In favorable leaching conditions the valuable metals must prevail in solution as aqueous spec
23、ies and the others in solid state.Roasted zinc calcine is the most common raw material for the hydrometallurgical zinc process. It contains mainly zinc oxide. An example of Eh-pH-diagrams application in zinc oxide leaching is shown in Fig. 7, see Fig. 6 for chemical system specifications. It can be
24、seen from the diagram that acid or caustic conditions are needed to dissolve the ZnO into solution19.In acid conditions the pH of the solution must be lowered below a value of 5.5. In practical processes the pH must be even lower because the relative amount of zinc in the solution increases if the p
25、H is adjusted farther from the equilibrium line between the ZnO and Zn(+2a) areas. The dissolution of the ZnO consumes hydrogen ions as can be seen from reaction (1). Therefore acid must continuously be added to the solution in order to maintain favorable leaching conditions.ZnO + 2 H(+a) = Zn(+2a)
26、+ H2O 1In caustic conditions zinc may be obtained in solution by the formation of the anion complex ZnO2(-2a). The leaching reaction may be described by equation (2).ZnO + H2O = ZnO2(-2a) + 2H(+a) 2The leaching conditions change, for example, if sulfur is included in the chemical system. The effect
27、of sulfur can be seen in Fig. 10. Much smaller pH values are need to dissolve ZnS which has wide stability area. This will lead to the formation of hydrogen sulfide gas and ions according to reaction (3).ZnS + 2H(+a) = Zn(+2a) + H2S(g) 3In oxidizing conditions a number of different aqueous species m
28、ay result from the leaching reactions such as (4), (5) and (6), see Fig. 6. In these reactions it is important to note that the consumption of reagents as well as generation of reaction products continuously change the solution conditions. These conditions must be regulated by feeding more acid and/
29、or removing reaction products in order to the maintain optimum conditions.ZnS = Zn(+2a) + S + 2e- 4ZnS + 4H2O = Zn(+2a) + HSO4(-a) + 7H(+a) + 8e- 5ZnS + 4H2O = Zn(+2a) + SO4(-2a) + 8H(+a) + 8e- 6The HSC database contains a lot of species which may have a long formation time. Normally it is wise to s
30、elect only such species which are identified in real solutions for chemical system specifications. A system specification with only common species included is shown in Fig. 8 and another one with all the species in Fig. 9. The selected species may have a visible effect on the diagrams as can be seen
31、 by comparing Figs. 10 and 12 as well as Figs. 11 and 13. In some cases, diagrams with all the species selected into the calculation system may give also valuable information, Figs. 12 and 13.Fig. 6. Zn-H2O-system specifications.Fig. 7.
