Abstract
- Cathodic processes in initial stages of atmospheric corrosion of rolled zinc and bare, Al–Si and Zn–Fe coated press hardened steel were studied. A ratio between hydrogen evolution and oxygen reduction reactions was evaluated using the manometric respirometry technique. Hydrogen evolution reaction proceeded on all studied materials, providing from 7 to 27 % of the cathodic current. The content of diffusible hydrogen in steel was low indicating that hydrogen recombination was highly efficient and only a minor part of produced hydrogen absorbed into the materials. The efficiency of hydrogen recombination is thus expected to control the hydrogen entry process. • Respirometry is suitable for studies of cathodic processes in atmospheric corrosion. • Hydrogen evolution reaction proceeded on all studied materials. • Only low amounts of diffusible hydrogen found in steel structure. • Hydrogen recombination is significantly more efficient compared to absorption. • Hydrogen formation on zinc enhanced in CO 2 -free atmosphere.
