Conduction mechanism in passive films on austenitic stainless steels in sulphate solutions

The passive state of three commercial highly alloyed austenitic stainless steels is studied by voltammetric, contact electric resistance and impedance measurements in 0.5 M sulphate solutions (pH 2-7). The three materials self-passivate and are susceptible to transpassive dissolution. The electric p...
