Corrosion-resistant metals and alloys towards liquid metals determine the service performances and lifetime of the devices employing liquid metals. This paper studies the static corrosion behaviors of iron, chromium, nickel, low carbon steel, and four types of stainless steels (SS410, SS430, SS304, SS316L) in liquid Sb-Sn at 500 oC, aiming to screen corrosion-resistant SS for Li||Sb-Sn liquid metal batteries (LMBs). The corrosion rates of Fe and Ni are 0.94 μm h-1 and 6.03 μm h-1 after 160 h’s measurement, respectively. Cr shows a low corrosion rate of < 0.05μm h-1, which is due to the formation of a relatively stable Cr-Sb layer that may be able to prevent the interdiffusion between the solid substrate and liquid Sb-Sn. Ni has a high corrosion rate because the formed Ni-Sb and Ni-Sn compounds are soluble in the liquid Sb-Sn. The corrosion products of both pure metals and SS can be predicted by thermodynamic and phase diagram analysis. Among the four types of SS, SS430 shows the best corrosion resistance towards liquid Sb-Sb with a corrosion rate of 0.19 μm h-1. Therefore, a liquid Sb-Sn resistant material should have a high Cr content and a low Ni content, and this principle is applicable to design metallic materials not only for LMBs but also for other devices employing liquid Sb- and Sn-containing liquid metals.
