Summary: The research found that samples with less internal stress formed denser and less defective passive films on their surfaces, attributed to higher concentration of metal ions at the metal/solution interface during anodization process. Prolonged passivation times resulted in more impurities being incorporated into the growing passive film, deteriorating its electrochemical properties.

Summary: The study found that the oxide film formed on Type 316L stainless steel in molten FLiNaK salt is unstable and can only provide temporary corrosion protection. After the dissolution of the oxide film, selective dealloying of Cr and Fe from the steel leads to intergranular corrosion of Type 316L SS in molten fluoride salt.

Summary: The effects of laser shock peening (LSP) on the electrochemical and long-term immersion corrosion behaviors of AISI 420 martensitic stainless steel in a 3.5 wt% NaCl solution were studied. The results showed that LSP treatment significantly improved the corrosion resistance of the steel, with a decrease in passive current density and an increase in pitting potential. The LSP treatment also resulted in the formation of a Cr-rich passive film with better corrosion resistance, and the inhibitory effects of nanocrystalline structure and compressive residual stress effectively prevented rust formation even after 30 days of immersion.

Summary: The pitting corrosion susceptibility of 904L stainless steel in aerated LiBr solutions was studied using electrochemical measurements. The experimental variables, including electrolyte concentrations, pH, scan rate, temperature, and constant potential, were investigated. The results showed that the uniform corrosion rate and pitting corrosion susceptibility increased with increasing LiBr concentrations and temperature. Increasing the pH of the solution decreased both corrosion rates. An increase in scan rate enhanced uniform corrosion but suppressed pitting corrosion. EIS diagrams displayed a depressed semicircles with the center under the real axis. Bode plots supported the result that the uniform corrosion resistance decreased with increasing Br- anion concentration in LiBr solutions. The observations suggested that the observed single time constant may actually be the overlap of two time constants.

Summary: The long-term corrosion behavior of 2205 duplex stainless steel was investigated in hot concentrated artificial seawater under intermittent vacuum boiling conditions. Compared to the atmosphere state, the passive film on the specimen surface is thinner and the induction time for pitting corrosion decreases notably. However, the lower dissolved oxygen content and violent boiling of the solution retard the pit propagation.

Summary: The influences of laser shock peening (LSP) with different coverage layers on the electrochemical and long-term immersion corrosion behaviors of 2Cr12NiMoWV martensitic stainless steel in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution were studied. LSP-induced corrosion resistant surface resulted in significant diminution of corrosion density and passive current density, as well as higher pitting potential. LSP-generated carbide decomposition, matrix nanocrystallization and surface segregation of Cr contributed to the generation of Cr-rich passive film with better corrosion resistance. Due to the inhibitory effect of matrix nanocrystallization and compressive residual stress on corrosion propagation, LSP greatly reduced the size and number of the corrosion pits even after 30 days' immersion in NaCl solution.

Summary: The effects of boric acid and lithium hydroxide on the corrosion behaviors of 316LN stainless steel in simulated high-temperature pressurized water were investigated. The results showed that increasing the concentration of boric acid or lithium hydroxide decreased the corrosion resistance of 316LN stainless steel. Boric acid was recommended for the water chemistry, while lithium hydroxide alone was found to be inappropriate. The solubility of oxides in high-temperature pressurized water was calculated, and a promising water chemistry for high-temperature pressurized water was proposed.

Summary: The crevice corrosion of X70 steel varies in different pH solutions, with pH=2 and pH=12 solutions promoting crevice corrosion while pH=6.8 solution prevents it. The increase of pH and Cl- inside crevice contribute to crevice corrosion in pH=2 solution, while the decrease of pH and increase of Cl- inside crevice lead to crevice corrosion in pH=12 solution.

Summary: In this study, stainless steel SS430 and carbon steel B450C were exposed to an aqueous extract of sodium silicate-modified limestone-Portland cement for 30 days. The corrosion behavior of the two steels was examined. The results showed that carbon steel lost its passive state and formed a corrosion layer of FeO and FeOOH. On the other hand, stainless steel SS430 formed a passive layer of Cr2O3, leading to a more positive corrosion potential. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy revealed that the corrosion resistance of SS430 was significantly lower than that of B450C.

Summary: High porosity Co-Al-Fe intermetallics with 3D-microstructures were successfully synthesized in one step via a thermal explosion reaction. The link between pore structure and permeability was investigated using 3D-XRM technology. The corrosion resistance of the samples with different Fe contents was studied at 900 degrees C under an oxygen/sulphur atmosphere for up to 120 h. The results showed that the samples maintained stable pore structure and intact internal matrices, attributed to the formation of a thin protective layer on the surface. In addition, inward diffusion of S resulted in the formation of FeS nodules.

Summary: In this study, an environmentally friendly volatile corrosion inhibitor, lysine salts (LA), was prepared between graphene oxide (GO) layers using an in situ intercalation technique. The corrosion inhibition effect of LA was evaluated, and it was found that LA-GO2 achieved a 99.3% corrosion inhibition efficiency after composition optimization. The inhibition of the electrochemical anodic process on the surface of mild steel was the main reason for the high corrosion inhibition efficiency of LA-GO2. The properties of the surface film on the corroded steel were also characterized in detail to understand the corrosion inhibition mechanism of LA-GO2.

Summary: The oxidation behavior of FeCrNi medium entropy alloy was investigated through experimental observations and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The study found that at 900 degrees C, the alloy forms a desirable and continuous oxide layer, while at 1000 degrees C, the oxide layer becomes discontinuous with penetration of oxide. These observations highlight the significant role of phase structure in promoting the formation of protective oxide scales and influencing oxidation resistance.

Summary: This study presents a new approach to studying the mechanism of filiform corrosion in organic coated steel using the scanning vibrating electrode technique (SVET) and micropotentiometry (potentiometric SECM). The electrochemical activity under the coating was evaluated by mapping the ionic current densities coming from artificial defects made in specific locations of the filament. Antimony tips were also used to investigate the pH changes associated with different corrosion reactions at the metal-paint interface. Local pH levels along the filament in the anodic and cathodic regions were determined.

Summary: This work explores the correlation between electrolyte transport properties and the variation of pigment volume concentration (PVC) in organic coatings. An odd random phase electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (ORP-EIS) approach is used to analyze the diffusion of ions independent from water uptake. The results show that a higher PVC leads to a more homogeneous coating structure, resulting in faster diffusion of ions and enhanced water uptake.
