Abstract
Anodic potentiodynamic and chronoamperometric curves on nickel-chromium alloys (2–50 wt % Cr) are obtained in NaCl solutions at various concentration, pH, and temperature. The dependences of pitting and repassivation potentials on the concentration and temperature are determined for alloy with 20 wt % Cr. The effect of the Cr content and pH on the anodic behavior of the alloys, in particular, the transition from a pitting breakdown of passivity to transpassivation, is shown. Quantitative time dependences of the current in the passive range are obtained and the steady-state values of this current are determined. The corrosion potential of the alloy with 20 wt % Cr is measured. Cathodic voltamograms for passive and chloride-ion-activated surface of the alloy are obtained.
