The role of molybdenum in corrosion resistance of stainless steel
Description
The effect of Mo on corrosion properties of stainless steels in 1M MgCl2 solution was studied using an electrochemical polarization method. Procedure for the preparation of electrochemically polarized samples for surface analysis is described. The samples surface were analyzed using X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS). The stainless steel which has high Mo content has a better resistance to corrosion in Cl containing media. Cr and Mo are enriched in the surface of Mo-bearing stainless steels which have undergone high anodic-metal dissolution. Mo may exist as MoO2 which is responsible in slowing down the rate of corrosion attack. (author)
