Since 1959 when COR-TEN began to be marketed, this material has served as served as weathering steel (atmospheric corrosion-resistant steel).
COR-TEN has successfully overcome rust, steel’s most weakest, by capitalizing on its unique “rust cures rust” function.
When exposed to the atmosphere without painting, COR-TEN begins to rust in the same way as ordinary steel. But soon the alloying elements in COR-TEN cause a protective surface layer of fine-textured rust to form, thereby suppressing corrosion rate.
Capitalizing on this excellent property, COR-TEN can be used without painting, thereby nullifying the commonly held belief that “steel must be used with paint.”
But, if paint is applied to COR-TEN, the service life of the paint is prolonged compared to coatings applied to ordinary steel. Accordingly repainting costs are reduced.
Since its development in the U.S. in 1933, COR-TEN has been used in every field where steel is applied, such as bridges, railway vehicle and buildings. Recently, unpainted applications of COR-TEN are attracting attention as being especially suited for resource savings and environmental concerns.
Another growing application of unpainted COR-TEN is in conjunction with rust stabilization treatments on bridges, building exteriors and other structures.
In this way, COR-TEN helps to reduce lifecycle costs (LCC) and environmental burdens in a wide range of applications.
1 Features2Saving Maintenance Cost
Because COR-TEN has high weather resistance, it can be used without painting. Unpainted applications not only offer the economic advantage of reducing repainting costs; they also offer aesthetic benefits associated with the calming color of the protective rust.
While weather resistance depends on the product grade and the application environment, COR-TEN’s weather resistance is nearly 4~8 times that of ordinary steel.
Weather Resistance
COR-TEN is paintable in the same way as ordinary steel. In addition, even if a painting defect should occur, COR-TEN suppresses the progress of rust area and, accordingly, prolongs the service life of the paint, thereby reducing repainting costs.
Paint durability
While trace amounts of alloying elements such as copper (Cu) and chromate (Cr) are added to COR-TEN to ensure high weather resistance, the carbon content is lowered to provide appropriate weldability. Accordingly, COR-TEN can be welded using either manual, gas-shield or submerged arc welding. In addition, spot welding can be applied to thin-gauge COR-TEN.
Weldability
COR-TEN possesses workability (cold forming, hot forming and gas cutting) similar to ordinary steels of same strength.
Workability
Since 1959 when “COR-TEN” began to be marketed, more than 2.6 million tons of this material have been produced.

When COR-TEN is exposed to the atmosphere, it develops an initial layer of rust as ordinary steel does. But, as time goes by, this early product gradually converts to a fine-textured rust (protective rust) that tightly adheres to the base metal, providing a protective layer that both protects the base metal and suppresses further corrosion.
Fig. 1 shows the results of exposure tests conducted in an industrial area. It can be seen from the figure that corrosion in COR-TEN is suppressed within 3 to 5 years.
Fig. 2 shows the results of exposure tests in
coastal areas. As can be seen in the figure, while the corrosion level of COR-TEN is lower progress than that of ordinary steel, corrosion continues to develop in COR-TEN for a long period. Accordingly, it is necessary to pay due care in the application of COR-TEN in coastal areas.
Fig. 3 shows the results of exposure tests in the U.S. The corrosion in both Japan and the U.S. show the same trend, but the corrosion levels in the U.S. is only about 1/3 to 1/2 that in Japan. This seems attributable to differences in temperature and humidity between Japan and the U.S.

3■Exposure Test ResultsBecause a reliable accelerated test method is not available and because the alloying elements used in steel products and the effects of individual application environments are complicated, it is necessary to carry out long-term exposure tests using numerous test specimens in order to judge whether weather resistance is high or low.
COR-TEN was developed in 1933 as a result of long-term exposure tests using 30,000 or more test specimens. Since then, exposure tests and follow-up surveys of existing structures have been continued worldwide to further improve weather resistance. Extensive knowledge has been obtained on the performance characteristics that weathering steel should possess and on the environmental conditions required for weathering steel to fully demonstrate its unique weather resistance. The following offers a summary introduction of such knowledge.
It is necessary that steel products include the weather-resistant elements that which contribute to the formation of protective rustAs regards weather-resistant alloying elements, P, Cu, Cr and Ni are widely known. Further, Si, Mo, Ti and V are known as complementary elements used to improve weather resistance in combination with Cu and Cr.
Further, a multiplier effect can be obtained by appropriately combing the use of these elements, and thus higher weather resistance can be obtained by finding the optimum mix of elements from many experiments.
It is necessary for weathering steel to be subjected to repeated wet-dry cycles in the atmosphere in order to form protective rustAccordingly, when the surfaces of weathering steel are constantly submersed in water or wet earth, protective rust does not form. Consequently, the application environment such as this prevent the peculiar features of weathering steel from being fully utilized.
Further, protective rust is most likely to form in sections subjected to sunlight and rainfall, but is less likely to form in areas subjected to salts.
Because these environmental effects become clear when steel products are exposed to the atmosphere in an as-rolled state, it is necessary in unpainted applications of weathering steel to pay full attention not only to the select of COR-TEN steel but also to the purpose of its use and to the site where it is to be used.

Secular Changes in Rust Appearance
In the initial stage of application, COR-TEN shows a yellowish appearance. This is followed by a gradual change in the color of the protective rust from brown to a stable dark brown after one to two years in general application environments. Afterwards, the coloration shows no clear change except perhaps to a deeper dark brown.

The unpainted application of COR-TEN not only offers economical advantages but, thanks to the calming color of the protective rust, it also demonstrates excellent aesthetic properties. Because of this, COR-TEN is applied in a wide range of fields such as buildings and monuments. Because the initial outflow of rust dirties the surrounding area, it is necessary to fully examine the application site and the purpose for using COR-TEN and to devise a structuring method.

4COR-TEN can be applied without painting (in a bare state), thus reducing the cost of repainting and other repairs. However, there have been expressions of concern during the first year or two when the protective layer of fine-textured rust (protective layer) is forming. These concerns usually referred to adverse landscaping associated with the yellowish color of the initial rust and to the contamination of surrounding areas caused by the runoff of early-stage rust washed away by rainwater. As a result, there have been obstacles linked to the use of COR-TEN in spite of its superior economic advantages.
In order to solve these problems, supplementary rust stabilization treatment was developed.
In the case of Complementary Rust Stabilization Treatment, agents similar in color to rust have been selected on the premise that the agents would be converted to rust in the future. Recently, in order to meet requests for the free selection of colors that harmonize with surrounding colors, Complementary Rust Stabilization Treatment agents to which various colors can be applied.
Because the Complementary Rust Stabilization Treatment agents will eventually be converted to rust, there is a certain period when the color will cease, over time, to remain uniform. When countermeasures are required from a landscaping perspective, it is necessary to apply an easy restoration treatment for surface layer film.

Painted use4When COR-TEN is painted, the required number of times that repainting must be conducted can be reduced.
This advantage is believed to result from the fact that, even when corrosion occurs in the base metal due to defects in the painted film or to pinholes, the corrosion progresses slowly and thus the occurrence of blistering and peeling of the paint film is reduced.
By making the most of this advantage, COR-TEN is applied in every field where steel is usedranging from buildings to railway vehicle, marine containers, storage tanks, industrial machinery and bridges.

Exposure Test Results for Painted Steel Pieces
■Corrosion Tests for COR-TEN below Paint Film
COR-TEN, ordinary carbon steel and 0.2% Cu steel were painted and exposed to the atmosphere for one year. The results of tests comparing the corrosion rates of the metal beneath the respective paint films are shown in the table at the right.
In the test, the surfaces were prepared with a phosphate treatment, given a primer undercoat, and were top-coated using an urea-type alkyd coating. Following this, the identical test specimens were given the same flaw, a diagonal break in the paint film, after which they were exposed to the atmosphere. Photos at right show the test conditions in the 8th month. It is clear from the test results that COR-TEN exhibits high performances in every coating condition, and that, the corrosion rate of COR-TEN is 5 times good on than that of 0.2% Cu steel and 70 times good than that of ordinary carbon steel.
■Exposure Tests for Painted Materials in Industrial Areas
Atmospheric exposure tests were conducted in Amagasaki and Himeji (Hirohata) on test specimens that were given three layers of zinc oxide paint over a wash primer and then given an artificial flaw. The test results are shown in the photos at right.
It is understood from the photos that there is a great difference between COR-TEN and ordinary steel vis-à-vis rust originating from an artificial flaw.

Using COR-TEN O, Cu-containing steel and ordinary carbon steel in industrial, semi-rural and coastal areas, H.R. Copson and C.P. Larrabee jointly surveyed paint deterioration and corrosion rates over an 8- year span. The results of the survey are shown below. The test results show that the higher the corrosion resistance of the steel grade, the longer the service life of the paint film. The service life of paint applied to COR-TEN is expected to be 1.5 times (2 times on average) greater than for other steel materials.

Corrosion Test Results for Painted Test Pieces: Number of Years of Paint Deteriorationb)
Notes:a) The test piece of cold-rolled carbon steel caused corrosion from its rear side, and pitting occurred in 8 years, leading to nearly damage.b) When the breach of paint coatings occurs on the 2% of the sheet surface, including the cut edges, it is defined as deterioration of painting.c) Paint breach: Less than 2% even when 8 years have passedd) Rust below paint film caused discoloration, and the film was not breached.

Y-groove Weld Cracking Test Results (COR-TEN 490)
Steels containing P─such as COR-TEN O, NAW 400 and NAW 490-are likely to suffer hot cracking during welding and are thus not recommended for use in welded structures requiring heavy-gauge members that are ≧13 mm in thickness.
For welded structure applica-tions, it is recommended to adopt NAW K-400, COR-TEN 490 and COR-TEN 570 having high weld-ability. These products are low in hardenability, highly resistant to weld cracking and offer high joint performance.

■Cold BendingIt is considered that thin-gauge plates of COR-TEN O and NAW 490 are most commonly used with cold bending. When cold bending is applied under the conditions shown in the table below, favorable results can be obtained.
■Drilling and MachiningWhen drilling and machining COR-TEN 490 and COR-TEN 590, tool damage is reduced and fine finishes are made possible using fabrication speeds slightly lower than those for SM490 and SM570. The standard applicable fabrication speeds are 2/3 the speed used with SS400 for drilling and 3/7 the speed for machining.
■Hot WorkingAside from COR-TEN 570, all grades of COR-TEN steel can be hot-worked in the same way as ordinary carbon steel. Because COR-TEN 570 is quenched and tempered, it undergoes changes in material quality and suffers drops in yield point and tensile strength when hot working is applied at temperatures higher than the tempering temperature. It is recommended that hot working be conducted at temperatures of 600˚C or lower.
■CuttingBoth shear cutting and gas cutting can be applied to COR-TEN in the same way as ordinary steel products. In applying gas cutting to COR-TEN 570, the hardness slightly increases near by cutting area. This level of increase in hardness does not exert any appreciable effect on the subsequent fabrication processes, but when preheating and postheating are applied before and after gas cutting, the subsequent cold working is favorably attained.
■Spot Heating and Linear Heating for Stress Relief
Stress relief of COR-TEN can be undertaken by means of spot heating and linear heating. When COR-TEN is heated to relieve stress in the same way as ordinary steel, no deterioration in material quality occurs.
When the heating temperature is elevated beyond 800˚C, due care should be taken because the material strength and surface hardness increase while toughness tends to decrease.
It is recommended that COR-TEN 570 be treated in the same way as SM570.
