Passivation behavior of a ferritic stainless steel in concentrated alkaline solutions

The passivation behavior of AISI 430 ferritic stainless steel was investigated in concentrated alkaline solutions in relation to several test parameters, using electrochemical techniques. Increasing solution pH (varying from 11.5 to 14.0) leads to an increase in the corrosion rate of the alloy. Mott...
