Abstract
The pitting resistance of anodic passive films formed on 316L stainless steel was studied in the concentrated artificial seawater with the concentration ratio (c R) ranged from 1.5 to 3 times under typical operation temperature condition of multi effect distillation (MED) by using the polarization curve and Mott-Schottky analysis. The pitting potential decreases linearly with the logarithm of c R. The anodic passive films are characterized by both n- and p-type semiconductive behavior, i.e., a bilayer microstructure. The density values of defects (i.e. N D and N A) are in the range of 1020 to 1021 cm−3, and increase with c R linearly. According to the point defect model (PDM), the increase of both Cl− concentration and defect density N D can facilitate the absorption of Cl− ions in the passive films, which is mainly responsible for the deterioration of pitting resistance in the concentrated artificial seawater.
