Abstract
The crevice corrosion behaviors of 436 stainless steels in chloride-containing solutions with sulfate addition were studied using potentiodynamic, galvanostatic and repassivation potential measurements. The results of these electrochemical tests were compared and discussed. Galvanostatic test was proved to be the most powerful technique in detecting the crevice corrosion of 436 stainless steels, while the repassivation potential measurement was the most time-saving method in this study. Sulfate ions have inhibited the crevice corrosion of 436 stainless steels in chloride-containing solution, which may result from the effects of competitive adsorption and the IR drop mechanism.
