Electrochemical polarization measurement on 304 SS in high temperature, high purity water

  • 1. General Electric Corp., Schenectady, NY (United States). Corporate Research and Development Center

Description

The polarization behavior of the redox reactions of hydrogen (H2), oxygen (O2), and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) on 304 stainless steel (SS) in high temperature, high purity water was studied in order to determine the electrochemical kinetic constants, such as Tafel slopes, exchange currents, orders of reaction and other parameters. These values are necessary to develop the electrochemical corrosion potential (ECP) predictive model for boiling water reactors (BWRs), which is used to monitor the intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC) susceptibility of sensitized austenitic SS
