MV3012 Marine Corrosion and Prevention Syllabus:
MV3012 Marine Corrosion and Prevention Syllabus – Anna University Regulation 2021
COURSE OBJECTIVES:
To impart knowledge to the students on
• Sacrificial and Cathodic protection
• Hull plate preparation
• Modern paint types
• Corrosion in boiler
• Corrosion and its prevention
UNIT I INTRODUCTION
Cathodic Protection – Sacrificial anodes protection – Impressed current system protection – Bimetallic corrosion – Design faults causing corrosion – corrosion of metals in sea water, metallic corrosion.
UNIT II HULL PLATE PREPARATION
Plate preparation during building and repair periods -Atmospheric Corrosion Mill scale – flame cleaning – Acid Pickling – Blast cleaning – causes of paint failure – shipboard preparations for painting – power wire brushing – power discing – air hammer – high pressure water blasting – sand blasting shot blasting
UNIT III MODERN PAINT TYPES
Basic composition of paint Albyd – bitumen or pitch – chlorinated rubber – coaltar epoxy – Epoxy – oleoresinous – phenolic – polyurethane – primers – vinyl – self polrshing copolymers – shipboard paint systems – underwater AF paints – boot top anti corrosive paints – super structure paints.
UNIT IV CORROSION IN BOILER
Atoms & Ions, Ph value electrochemical corrosion, Direct chemical attack – Electro chemical attack – reason – remedial measures. Effect of salts & Grease in feed water. Effect of corrosion while boiler not in service – preservation to avoid corrosion.
CORROSION IN MARINE DIESEL ENGINES:Corrosive wear of cylinder liners – Reasons and remedies – corrosion of Main Engine Jacket cooling spaces – Reasons and remedies – corrosion in bearings.
UNIT V CORROSION AND ITS PREVENTION
Mechanism of corrosion – Chemical corrosion – Electro chemical corrosion – Anomic & cathodic protection – forms of metallic coatings – anodizing – phosphating.
TOTAL: 45 PERIODS
COURSE OUTCOMES:
On completion of the course the students will be able to:
CO1: Identify the Causes of Hull corrosion
CO2: Apply correct Method of prevention during operation.
CO3: Select Anti-corrosive paints
CO4: Detect Corrosion in BOILERS and IC ENGINES
CO5: Design and develop mechanism of corrosion.
