Popis: | Nitrogen-alloyed stainless steels exhibit outstanding corrosion resistance in chloride solution. However, cold deformation and phase transformation can influence the materials surface properties and, therefore, corrosion behavior. A nitrogen-alloyed stainless steel with 20 wt% chromium, 0.13 wt% nitrogen, and subject to plastic deformation of up to 36% is electrochemically tested in a 5 wt% sodium chloride solution by linear polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The steel's corrosion behavior is distinctly influenced by its deformation state. Before polarization, a negative influence of plastic deformation on the corrosion resistance of the alloy can be determined. However, after anodic polarization, the susceptibility to corrosion due to cold deformation and phase transformation decreases. While the electrochemical resistance of the protective surface film decreases due to deformation-induced film rupture and the formation of anodes at the surface, the permeability of the double layer also decline. This is caused by the increased activation of the surface due to the formation of local anodes and, therefore, an increase in the formation of protective species that retard further dissolution processes. In addition, increasing plastic deformation results in the surface ratio between anodes and cathodes becoming more favorable, and in a decrease in the anodic current density. |
