Long-term corrosion performance of this coating in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution was evaluated through electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS).

Results demonstrate that corrosion current density does not necessarily decrease with increasing electrolyte concentration (Please check it out). Additionally, the alloy exhibits higher passive film transpassive potentials in more concentrated solutions. Potentiostatic polarization tests reveal an increase in steady-state current densities attributed to the passive films formed in more concentrated solutions. Lower electrolyte concentrations lead to the formation of more intact bilayered passive films. In this context, the formation of passive films is elucidated by examining the generation and annihilation of point defects.
