The results show that goethite (α-FeOOH), akaganeite (β-FeOOH), lepidocrocite (γ- FeOOH) and magnetite (Fe3O4) are the major constituents among the corrosion products. The arrangement of different levels of the DC electric field intensity gives rise to the following results. The little higher DC electric field intensity (around 100-200 kV/m) promotes the crystallinity and growth of y-FeOOH; obviously, much higher DC electric field intensity (greater than 400 kV/m) prevents the growth of α-FeOOH and facilitates the generation of Fe3O4. Both the promotional growth of γ-FeOOH and suppression of α-FeOOH growth indicated the weakness of the protectiveness of the rust layer. Consequently, the suppression of the transformation of α-FeOOH from y-FeOOH favors the yield of the Fe3O4, which works as a large cathode area and would be about to quicken the subsequent steel corrosion.展开更多

With the increase in Sn content in 316 LX austenitic stainless steel from 0 to 0.21%, the critical pitting temperature value increased from 32.6 to 38.8 °C, and the pitting potential increased from 0.252 V_(SCE) to 0.317 V_(SCE). Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy results showed that the corrosion resistance of passive film rose with the increase in Sn content, indicating a more stable passive film. The Mott–Schottky measurement revealed an n-type passive film with a decreased carrier concentration on the 316 LX austenitic stainless steel surface. The Cr, Sn^(2+) and Sn^(4+)(SnO, SnOHCl or SnO_2) enrichments were observed in the passive layer by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The enrichment of Sn and Cr in the passive film can account for the enhanced pitting resistance of 316 LX austenitic stainless steel in chloride solution.展开更多
