Abstract
A method has been proposed for testing rubber linings in industrial conditions based on a proposed model of coating penetration. The depth of penetration of rubber lining by water has been determined on the basis of investigation results by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Verification of the proposed procedure has been performed by comparing the obtained results of electrochemical investigations with determination of the water content in rubber by the gravimetric method. It has been confirmed that the values calculated in accordance with the penetration model correlate with the water content in rubber. Investigation results confirm views on the corrosion aggressiveness of media in different zones of a scrubber working as part of the flue gas desulphurisation installation.
