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.
The present work describes the combination of electrochemical investigations by using a gel‐type electrolyte with Fourier‐transformed infrared spectroscopy to investigate partially extremely thin corrosion product films on titanium‐zinc. The gel pad method enables the determination of corrosion relevant parameters such as the potential and the linear polarization resistance without altering the corrosion product layers, which are extremely prone to re‐dissolution when freshly formed. Complementary infrared spectroscopy enables the determination of main compounds of even very thin surface layers of few tenth of nanometers with a certain lateral resolution. It was found that zinc forms mostly zinc carboxy‐hydroxides such as hydrozincite, under various exposure conditions. The protective properties of these hydrozincite layers depend on the structure of the corrosion product film rather than on its thickness. In mid‐term exposure tests, shallow corrosion pits were found even in the absence of corrosive agents such as chloride.
Forschungsprojekt zum Korrosionsverhalten von Edelstählen - BAM und VSM mit neuen Erkenntnissen
(2019)
Wie kann man verhindern, dass Edelstahl korrodiert? Und welchen Einfluss haben Kornarten und Körnungen von Schleifmitteln auf das Korrosionsverhalten? Diesen Fragen ist die Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) mit Unterstützung der VSM AG zwei Jahre lang auf den Grund gegangen. Heute wurden im VSM Technical Center am Hauptsitz von VSM in Hannover die Ergebnisse vorgestellt. Die zentralen Erkenntnisse: Kornarten und Zusätze im Schleifmittel haben keinen Einfluss auf die Korrosion. Aber: Je feiner die Oberfläche geschliffen ist, desto besser ist der Korrosionsschutz. Dabei ist das Einhalten der Schleiffolge besonders wichtig.
