TY - JOUR A1 - Burkert, Andreas A1 - Müller, Thoralf A1 - Lehmann, Jens A1 - Mietz, Jürgen T1 - Long-term corrosion behaviour of stainless steels in marine atmosphere JF - Materials and Corrosion N2 - Nine different stainless steel alloys were exposed for 5 years under marine environment and their corrosion behaviour was compared and assessed. The investigation of four different surface finishes for all alloys tested further enabled to consider industry-specific features of the surface finish for the material comparison. The results of the exposure tests yield conclusions regarding the influence of alloy composition, surface finish and exposure duration under marine environment. The three duplex stainless steels revealed excellent corrosion resistance even in case of crevices during the 5 years of exposure under the given exposure conditions. Also the molybdenum-alloyed ferritic steel 1.4521 showed good corrosion resistance comparable to the classical austenitic materials 1.4301 and 1.4404.

Processing and surface finish influences the corrosion resistance of ferritic stainless steels, which may be considered for some application in marine environment. Three ferritic stainless steel alloys (X2CrNi12, X2CrTiNb18 and X2CrMoTi18-2) were exposed in four different surface finishes (rolled, dry grinding, glass beaded and electro polished) for five years in marine environment to obtain reliable information about the corrosion resistance. All samples were assessed after 22 and 60 months according to DIN EN ISO 10289 in validation degrees from 1 to 10. Complementary investigation using accelerated chamber test (salt spray test followed by four weeks storage at 30 °C / 80 % relative humidity) and short-term electrochemical methods (electrochemical potentiodynamic reactivation, pitting potentials and the KorroPad method) were conducted to compare their results. The presentation gives an overview on all methods and the generated results, which show benefits and restrictions of long-term, accelerated and short-term corrosion tests.

A1 - Babutzka, Martin A1 - Lehmann, Jens A1 - Burkert, Andreas T1 - Influence of grinding parameters on the corrosion behavior of austenitic stainless steel JF - Materials and Corrosion N2 - Samples of the austenitic stainless steel grade X5CrNi18‐10 (1.4301, AISI 304) were ground industrially with various grinding parameters to study their influence on corrosion resistance. The ability of the mechanically ground surfaces to form a stable passive layer was evaluated by KorroPad test and a modified electrochemical potentiodynamic reactivation test based on a single loop (EPR‐SL). Furthermore, the surfaces were characterized by surface analytical methods. The main influence was determined regarding abrasive belt type. Surfaces mechanically ground with granulate abrasive belts constantly had a lower corrosion resistance than surfaces ground with single‐coated grain. The granulate abrasive belts generated more sensitized surface areas and left formations of welded sample material on the mechanically ground surfaces. A post‐treatment with a nonwoven abrasive proved to be an effective finishing process by which the surface defects and sensitized material got removed and the surfaces regained the expected corrosion resistance.
