Corrosive liquid circulation! Multi-factor coupling test to simulate deep sea sulfur-rich environment

With the continuous development of deep-sea resources, the corrosion of materials in the deep-sea environment has attracted increasing attention. Recently, a project aboutCorrosive liquid circulation multi-factor coupling testThe research results triggered widespread discussion. This study systematically analyzed the corrosion behavior of materials under complex conditions by simulating a deep-sea sulfur-rich environment, providing an important reference for material selection and protection of deep-sea equipment.

1. Research background and significance

The deep sea environment has the characteristics of high pressure, low temperature, high salt, and rich sulfur. In particular, the seafloor hydrothermal area is rich in corrosive media such as hydrogen sulfide, which causes serious corrosion to metal materials.
