چکیده

Potentiodynamic, impedance measurements were carried out on 304 stainless steel in 0.5N, 1.0, 2.0 and 5.0 N H2SO4 solutions. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic [XPS] studies carried out on 304 stainless steel in H2SO4 solutions revealed the existence of CrOOH, Cr2O3, -Fe2O3, FeOOH, Mn2O3, Mn3O4, MnS, Ni (OH)2, Ni2O3, NiO, sulphides. The passive film found to contain chromium oxide inner layer and the dissolution of iron through it caused the formation of oxides of iron namely Fe2O3 and -FeOOH. Higher oxides of manganese and nickel are also due to dissolution through the film. Sulphates are reduced to sulphur chemically by the released protons from anodic polarization.

Electrochemical and passivation behavior investigation of ferritic stainless steel in simulated concrete pore media

The applications of stainless steel are one of the most reliable solutions in concrete structures to reduce chloride-induced corrosion problems and increase the structures service life, however, due to high prices of nickel, especially in many civil engineering projects, the austenitic stainless steel is replaced by the ferritic stainless steels. Compared with austenite stainless steel, the fer...
