The results showed that there is an optimal tin addition which is around （0.062-0.1） wt%, and the general corrosion resistance of B316LX with 0.08 wt% tin addition in boiling H2SO4 increased remarkably with a corrosion rate of an order of magnitude lower than that of 316L. Hydrolyzation of tin ions induces more metastable pit occurrence on the material surface. However, the pitting resistance of B316LX increases because tin oxides improve the density and uniformity of the passive film, and hydroxide and oxide of tin inhabit the process of pit growing. The effect of tin on pitting corrosion process is illustrated schematically.展开更多

IGC susceptibility of B316LX is mainly caused by the precipitation of M23C6 carbide and intermetallic Laves phase. DL-EPR test is unsuitable to evaluate the IGC susceptibility of B316LX with long-time sensitization, because more carbides and inter- metallic phases are formed at grain boundaries and inside the grains, which induce more severe IGC and pits attacks. Tin addition increases the IGC susceptibility, maybe due to diffusion of tin toward grain boundaries.展开更多
Cr release from stainless steels in different simulant fluids according to different test conditions is carried out with emphasis on ferritic stainless steels. Effects of Cr content and surface roughness on Cr release...Cr release from stainless steels in different simulant fluids according to different test conditions is carried out with emphasis on ferritic stainless steels. Effects of Cr content and surface roughness on Cr release are discussed specially with a relation to corrosion resistant and passive film formation. Some primary results are attained： （1） higher Cr content means better corrosion resistance including higher potential and lower corrosion rate and less amount of Cr release from base metal; （2） decreasing surface roughness is in favor of the formation of passive film which can re- train Cr release from base metal effectively; （3） Cr content and surface roughness have synthetical effects on Cr release with a narrow innoxious field referring to surface roughness with decreasing Cr content in stainless steels.展开更多
