Corrosion Behavior of SA508 Coupled with and without Magnetite in EDTA-Based Solutions

The effects of magnetite on the corrosion behavior of SA508 were studied in 10% and 20% EDTA-based chemical cleaning solutions at 93 °C and 121 °C using electrochemical and immersion tests. SA508 was the anode of the galvanic pair between SA508 and magnetite. The galvanic coupling...

Description
Summary:The effects of magnetite on the corrosion behavior of SA508 were studied in 10% and 20% EDTA-based chemical cleaning solutions at 93 °C and 121 °C using electrochemical and immersion tests. SA508 was the anode of the galvanic pair between SA508 and magnetite. The galvanic coupling shifted the mixed corrosion potential of SA508 in the positive direction and thus increased its corrosion rate. The increase of the EDTA concentration and solution temperature led to an increase in the extent of the galvanic effect.
