Abstract By means of a unique artificial pit specimen, pit growth on 18 percent chromium-8 percent nickel stainless steel has been measured and characterized. The effects of solution composition, agitation, atmosphere, corrosion current interruption, chloride ion concentration, and inhibitor additions have been investigated. Pit interaction during pit growth has also been determined. The autocatalytic nature of pitting has been verified, and evidence of ion screening at pit sites has been experimentally observed for the first time. 3.2.2

The effects of chloride ion concentration on SCC susceptibility of 15Cr and 13Cr martensitic stainless steels were investigated at 180°C by SSRT. Transgranular SCC occurred in the environment containing CO2 and chloride ion. The increasing chloride ion concentration was significantly affected SCC susceptibility of 15Cr SS. In addition, the contribution of hydrogen to SCC was examined at high temperature by SSRT with electrochemically polarization. The cathodically charged specimens showed hydrogen embrittlement. The fracture surface was similar to that of high temperature SCC. On the other hand, the SCC was accelerated by anodic polarization and not by cathodic polarization. The SCC behavior of martensitic stainless steel at high temperature is affect by evolved hydrogen atom. It is concluded that hydrogen plays a key role in the crack propagation.

Simulation Results

The corrosion behavior of maraging hardened stainless steel (MHSS) in different Cl-medium was investigated by thermodynamics simulation and electrochemical experiments. The simulation results show that the thermodynamic stability zone decreases with the increase of the concentration of Cl-. Some of chromium transformed into Cr(OH)2+and adsorbed on the surface of stainless steel, and others generated Cr2O3protecting the matrix. Mo reacted with O2to form MoO42-adsorbed on the surface of the material, which inhibited the destruction of Cl-. The electrochemical experiments indicate that the concentration of Cl-is in the range of 2%-7%. The pitting potential and self-corrosion potential of MHSS decreased linearly with the increase of ion concentration, and the pitting corrosion resistance of MHSS decreased. When the self-corrosion current increases from 1.9888 μA to 2.6524 μA, the corrosion tendency of the material enhances.

In this work Ni-free austenitic stainless steels with nanostructure and their nanocomposites were synthesized by mechanical alloying (MA), heat treatment and nitriding of elemental microcrystalline Fe, Cr, Mn and Mo powders with addition of hydroxyapatite (HA). Microhardness and corrosion tests' results of obtained materials are presented. Mechanical alloying and nitriding are very effective technologies to improve the corrosion resistance of stainless steel. Decreasing the corrosion current density is a distinct advantage for prevention of ion release and it leads to better cytocompatibility. Similar process in case of nanocomposites of stainless steel with hydroxyapatite helps achieve even better mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. Hence nanocrystalline nickel-free stainless steels and nickel-free stainless steel/hydroxyapatite nanocomposites could be promising bionanomaterials for use as a hard tissue replacement implants, e.g. orthopedic implants.

The anodic polarization curves of 430 ferrite stainless steels with various RE contents in 3.5% NaCl neutral solutions have been measured by electrochemical methods. The effect of RE on pitting corrosion resistance of 430 ferrite stainless steels has been studied by the metallographic examination. The results show that sulfide and other irregular inclusions are modified to round or oval-shaped RE2O2S and RES after adding RE to 430 ferrite stainless steesl. RE makes sulfide, and other irregular inclusions change to dispersed round or oval-shaped RE inclusions, effectively inhibits the occurrence of pitting corrosion, thereby enhancing the corrosion resistance of 430 ferrite stainless steels.
