Corrosion of SUS304 Stainless Steel Pipe Induced by Manganese Oxide Deposition

Corrosion Behavior of Stainless Steel Clad Rebar

Stainless steel clad rebar (SCR) was investigated because it may become a cost-effective means of controlling corrosion in concrete under very aggressive environments. Sound SCR (316L cladding) resisted corrosion in saturated Ca(OH)2 solution (SCS) with up to 5 wt% chloride. Cladding breaks on SCR induced significant corrosion of exposed underlying CS in SCS with only 1 wt% chloride. A computer...

Suppression of Corrosion Growth of Stainless Steel by Ultrasound

In-Situ Observation and Acoustic Emission Analysis for Corrosion Pitting of MgCl2 Droplet in SUS304 Stainless Steel

Acoustic emission with near-field detection and optical video microscope monitoring was proposed to investigate the pitting corrosion caused by a small magnesium-chloride droplet. Four types of the detected waveforms were characterized by the wavelet analysis to investigate the corrosion of work-hardened SUS304 stainless steel. After high-activity AE signals observed, the corrosion product shee...

Corrosion at Sulphide Inclusions in Stainless Steel

Auger analysis was performed using a high resolution scanning auger electron microscope and auger electron spectroscopy. Elemental auger contour maps for corroded sulphide inclusions in stainless steel were presented. It was found that the copper enriched-manganese sulphide inclusions were uniformly corroded, which might be due to CU2S deposition on the surface of corroding inclusions. In contr...

IMPROVING PITTING CORROSION OF 304 STAINLESS STEEL BY ELECTROPOLISHING TECHNIQUE

Several surface modification techniques such as ion implantation, surface laser melting, have been employed to improve pitting corrosion resistance of stainless steel. Electropolishing is a technique in which the surface roughness is eliminated through a selective electrochemical dissolution. The effect of electropolishing on pitting corrosion of 304 stainless steel (SS) was investigated employ...
