Description

Device and method for measuring pH value of electrode solution interface
Technical Field
The invention relates to a device for researching interface pH in the field of metal corrosion, in particular to a device and a method for measuring the interface pH of an electrode solution.
Background
The corrosion of metals in aqueous solutions is closely related to the interfacial pH of the metal solution, and most of the factors affecting metal corrosion are usually processes that act on metal corrosion by changing the interfacial pH, such as pressure, biofouling, solution flow rate, and the like. In particular, in order to inhibit corrosion of metals, the most common and effective method in practical corrosion prevention works is cathodic protection, in which anodic reactions of metal dissolution are attenuated by applying a cathodic polarization potential or a polarization current to the metal. During the cathodic protection application process, a great amount of OH can be caused due to the occurrence of oxygen absorption reaction and hydrogen evolution reaction-The generation of the metal surface can cause drastic change of the interfacial pH of the metal solution, and the change of the interfacial pH can generate other additional effects, such as generation of calcium and magnesium deposits on the metal surface in seawater solution, influence of the excessive interfacial pH on the attachment and survival of microorganisms on the metal surface, and the like. Therefore, the measurement of the metal solution interface pH under the polarization condition is helpful for further researching the mechanism of the influence of the interface pH on the corrosion process under the polarization condition.
However, since the apparent change of the pH of the metal solution interface under polarization conditions occurs only in a small region near the interface, the existing glass pH electrodes have no measurement capability due to their large size, and thus the use of minute metal oxide electrodes as pH sensors has been widely studied. The method mainly comprises two modes in the practical application of the current metal oxide electrode in measuring the pH value of an interface, wherein one mode is that the metal oxide electrode is originally arranged around the metal electrode to be measured, the metal electrode and the oxide electrode are isolated by adopting a glass tube, and the distance between the metal electrode and the metal oxide electrode is controlled by the thickness of the wall of the glass tube; and secondly, the metal oxide electrode and the measured metal electrode are placed in a close distance by controlling the shapes of the metal oxide electrode and the measured metal electrode, and the method has special requirements on the shape of the measured metal electrode and is not suitable for large-scale application. Therefore, an apparatus which is easy and convenient to operate and easy to control is urgently needed to explore the change of the pH of the interface.
