Abstract: | Electrochemical measurement, optical microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy were employed to investigate the corrosion
behavior of some low alloy steels. The steels were held under a thin liquid film of 0.5wt% NaCl aqueous solution. It is found
that the steels with the same chemical composition but different microstructures exhibit obviously different corrosion behaviors.
However, the corrosion behavior of the steels with different compositions but the same microstructures may be similar in the
present investigation. The corrosion rate of bainite is slower than that of ferrite and pearlite. The corrosion products of
bainite are uniform and fine. The size of carbon-rich phases produces a great impact on the corrosion of the steels, whether
in the initial stage or in the long term. It is easy to induce large pitting for carbon-rich phases with large size, which
damages the compactness of the rust layer. |
