cleaning and corrosion control manual

Definition of corrosion
• Corrosion is the electrochemical deterioration of a metal because of its chemical reaction with the surrounding environment
What is the most common type of corrosion
electrochemical corrosion
What are the four conditions must exist before corrosion can occur
Anode, Cathode, Electrolyte, Electrical Contact
Is the anode or cathode the corroding metal
the corroding metal is known as the anode
Uniform Surface Corrosion
direct chemical attack on a metal surface and involves only the metal surface, first seen as a general dulling or etching of a polished surface
Galvanic Corrosion
different metals in contact with each other and an electrolyte
How does Pitting Corrosion appear
first noticeable as a white or gray powdery deposit
Exfoliation Corrosion
advanced form of intergranular corrosion where the surface grains of a metal are lifted up by the force of expanding corrosion products occurring at the grain boundaries
Stress Corrosion Cracking
intergranular or transgranular cracking of a metal caused by the combined effects of constant tensile stress
Does carbon corrode easily
• Carbon is cathodic and has low corrosion potential
Fretting Corrosion
special form of concentration cell corrosion which occurs in combination with surface wear
What does corrosion on magnesium look like
appears as white, powdery mounds or spots
What flaws can you see with penetrant inspection
flaw being inspected for is open to the surface
What can eddy current inspection detect
can detect and evaluate pitting, intergranular, exfoliation, stress cracking, and corrosion fatigue cracking
What can be seen with ultrasonic inspection
may be used to detect exfoliation, intergranular, pitting, corrosion, and stress corrosion and corrosion fatigue cracking
what is the depth of light corrosion
.001inch maximum can normally be removed by light hand sanding
what is the depth of moderate corrosion
0.010 inch normally removed by extensive hand sanding or light mechanical sanding
what is the depth of sever corrosion
deeper than 0.010 inch, must be removed by extensive mechanical sanding or grinding and may require a patch type repair or component replacement
Corrosion shall always be removed by
the mildest effective technique
four major types of metallic wools
aluminum, copper, stainless steel, and carbon steel
How many grades of metallic wools are there
available in five grades, ranging from very fine to extra coarse
4 types of wire brushes
carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and brass bristles
What is used primarily for the initial removal of heavy corrosion deposits such as flaking rust and exfoliation
Scrapers
hardness testers
usually a Rockwell, Brinell, or Vickers type
• Prior to securing turnbuckles, threaded terminals should be screwed into the turnbuckle barrel until no more than _____ threads of either terminal are outside the barrel
three
What do you do after the turnbuckle has been adjusted for proper cable tension
two pieces of safety wire are inserted one-half the wire length into the hole in the center of the turnbuckle barrel
classifications of fuel contamination
generally classified as chemical, microbial, or material
what is the maximum amount of special duty pay that you can get
$450 per month
what percent of all Coast Guard units are within 30 miles of a HSWL RP
42
What year was the Coast Guard Special Needs Program was implemented
1984
Enrollment in the Special Needs Program does not preclude AD members from:
1) Sea duty;
(2) Normal sea/shore rotation;
(3) Unaccompanied assignments;
(4) Standing watches;
(5) Performing normally assigned duties; or
(6) Temporary Duty (TDY) assignments in support of Coast Guard-wide individual augmentation or contingency response operations
Risk management manual
Comdtinst 3500.3a
• risk is defined as:
the possibility of loss or injury due to exposure to a hazard
• Risk Management is defined as
a process to identify, assess, control, mitigate and manage hazards associated with an operation or activity
what is the most common cause of mishaps
lack of deliberate and systematic RM during preparation, planning, and execution of operations and activities
• Research has identified ____ critical human factors that if not managed will increase the potential for error-induced mishaps
7
• The Coast Guard has adopted a 5-step Risk Management process that consists of
1) Identifying Hazards,
2) Assessing Hazards,
3) Developing Controls and Making Decisions,
4) Implementing Controls, and
5) Supervising and Evaluating Controls
