The influence of temperature and the role of chromium in the passive layer in relation to pitting corrosion of 316 stainless steel in NaCl solution

The electrochemical behaviour of 316 stainless steel was studied in nearly neutral electrolytes containing NaCl in the - 3 to 50°C temperature range, using potentiostatic and potentiodynamic techniques. Special attention was paid to both the current fluctuations previous to the irreversible breakdow...

description The electrochemical behaviour of 316 stainless steel was studied in nearly neutral electrolytes containing NaCl in the - 3 to 50°C temperature range, using potentiostatic and potentiodynamic techniques.

No pitting was observed at temperature lower than 0°C. In the 0-15°C range the breakdown potential shifts slightly in the negative direction. Between 15 and 25°C a remarkable decrease in the breakdown potential was observed whereas in the 25-50°C range it remained practically constant. The temperature dependence of the breakdown potential correlates closely with the temperature dependence of the Cr(III) to soluble Cr(VI) electrooxidation current.
