2. 1. Use of local electrochemical techniques for corrosion studies of stainless steels

   Author : Nuria Fuertes; Rachel Pettersson; Mari Sparr; Ulf Kivisäkk; Yolanda Hedberg; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Stainless steel; passive film; thermal oxides; work function; pickling; SKPFM; SVET; XPS; AES; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering;

   Abstract : The excellent corrosion resistance of stainless steels arises from the presence of a passive film on its surface. Above 10.5wt% Cr a chromium oxide of 1-3 nm is formed on the surface of the metal that in case of damage will reform and hinder further dissolution of the metal. READ MORE

4. 2. Use of localised techniques to elucidate the influence of process variables on the corrosion of stainless steels

   Author : Nuria Fuertes; Rachel Pettersson; Inger Odnevall; Stuart Lyon; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Stainless steel; corrosion; passive film; thermal oxides; Volta potential; pickling; deformation; cold rolling; AM; SKPFM; SVET; Kemi; Chemistry;

   Abstract : Several factors during steel manufacture and fabrication can alter the passivity and corrosion behaviour of stainless steels. These include alloying, deformation, welding and heat treatments. READ MORE
