摘要
The electrochemical potentiokinetic reactivation technique(EPR) and the potentiostatic pulse technique(PPT) have been used to detect sensitization of austenitic stainless steel. Compared with EPR, PPT has some advantages such as it can be conducted at greater speed and with less destruction, etc. The sensitivity of PPT can be improved by altering t_1/t_2 in a certain range and it will favour the detection of the specimen with lower degree of sensitization.
