Role of rare earth elements on the improvement of corrosion resistance of micro-alloyed steels in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution

The effects of rare earth (RE) addition on the corrosion behavior of micro-alloyed steels in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution were investigated elaborately through electrochemical tests and material characterization analyses. Results showed that the corrosion rate decreased after addition of RE elements. The...
