On the application of bipolar electrochemistry for simulating galvanic corrosion behaviour of dissimilar stainless steels

The application of a bipolar electrochemistry technique to simulate the galvanic corrosion behaviour dissimilar stainless steels is introduced. allows comparison response by controlling extent localised as function an applied offset potential. setup was explored performance type 420 ferritic and 304L austenitic steels, yielding information about anodic vs. cathodic these materials when in close proximity each other. introduced approach provides novel methodology for simulating steels.
