Abstract
During polarization in 1 M NaCl (pH 5.4), intergranular corrosion of sensitized re-sulfurized Type 304 stainless steel occurred after pit initiation at MnS inclusions. Intergranular corrosion occurred when the pitting corrosion reached a Cr-depleted region along the sensitized grain boundaries. During depassivation under open-circuit conditions in 1 M NaCl (pH 1.0), MnS dissolution occurred as the first step, and the second step was the initiation of intergranular corrosion. Finally, dissolution of the steel matrix occurred. The role of MnS in the initiation of intergranular corrosion and depassivation of sensitized steel is discussed.
期刊介绍:
npj Materials Degradation considers basic and applied research that explores all aspects of the degradation of metallic and non-metallic materials. The journal broadly defines ‘materials degradation’ as a reduction in the ability of a material to perform its task in-service as a result of environmental exposure.
The journal covers a broad range of topics including but not limited to:
-Degradation of metals, glasses, minerals, polymers, ceramics, cements and composites in natural and engineered environments, as a result of various stimuli
-Computational and experimental studies of degradation mechanisms and kinetics
-Characterization of degradation by traditional and emerging techniques
-New approaches and technologies for enhancing resistance to degradation
-Inspection and monitoring techniques for materials in-service, such as sensing technologies
