Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is a technology of nondestructive electrochemical testing. In this paper, EIS is applied to study the corrosion processes of Al-Mg coatings. In the initial 24 h of immersion in 3.5% NaCl solution, passive films of Al-Mg coatings dissolve quickly. As time passed, corrosion products increase on surface gradually, which can inhibit corrosion. After 480h of immersion, corrosion products fully cover on Al-Mg coatings’ surface. The EIS of different corrosion processes are fitted by three equivalent circuits corresponding to the three corrosion processes. In the test of open circuit potentials (OCP), OCP is instable in the initial 24 h of immersion. As immersion time goes by, OCP tends to stabilization at about -0.90 V. Measurements of scanning electron microscope (SEM) confirm the conclusions of electrochemical measurements.

The crevice corrosion behaviors of X52 carbon steel in two typical Cl--containing solutions were investigated by electrochemical noise and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Results show that oxygen concentration difference leads to the coupled current in NaCl + NaHCO3 solution while HAc concentration difference causes the coupled current in NaCl solution saturated with CO2 in the presence of HAc. There exists an apparent incubation stage during the crevice corrosion process of X52 carbon steel in the former. However, no obvious incubation period of crevice corrosion can be observed in the latter. Micrography shows that the crevice corrosion occurs indeed and the corrosion inside the crevice is not uniform.

In order to study the corrosion characteristics of 16Mn and Q235B steel in natural seawater, the indoor contrast corrosion experiments are carried out in seawater by electrochemical method. Tafel polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques are employed to investigate the corrosion electrochemical behavior of 16Mn and Q235B steel, which are acquired by electrochemical workstation. The results of polarization curves and EIS reveal the respective corrosion rules of 16Mn and Q235B steel in natural seawater. At last, the different influence of rust layer on the corrosion process of 16Mn and Q235B steel is analyzed contrastively.

Tinplate cans with polymeric coatings are commonly used for food storage. Due to health concerns related to bisphenol A (BPA), BPA-free coatings are currently being considered. Thus, understanding the degradation of BPA-free coatings is critical for predicting can integrity. In this study, the corrosion of tinplate cans with a BPA-free coating exposed to different solutions was studied using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). To accelerate the corrosion process, cans were stored at 49 °C for varying times prior to testing in various solutions. EIS was performed first in the original storage environment and then in 3.5 wt% NaCl to investigate the performance of the can coatings. Separately, EIS was also used to investigate degradation of the coating in the headspace region. The EIS results provide insights into the degradation of the BPA-free coating and the corrosion of cans arising from the exposure to different food chemicals.
