According to YB/T 5362-2006 “stainless steel stress corrosion test method in boiling magnesium chloride solution”, the sensitivity of the stress corrosion of three typical materials (304L, 2205, Alloy 825) was investigated in boiling magnesium chloride solution (experimental temperature is 143±1 °C, concentration of magnesium chloride is 43%). The results show that under the condition of constant strain, the corrosion resistant performance of 825 material is far better than 304L, and the corrosion resistance of dual phase steel may not be superior than that of austenitic stainless steel.

This present paper is aims to study the influence of cold rolling process on the microstructure and corrosion behaviors of 316L stainless steel using potentiodynamics polarization testing techniques. The steel with initial thickness of 2.0 mm was unidirectional cold rolled to 10%, 30% and 50% reduction in thickness. The corrosion behaviors of the cold rolled steels were evaluated in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) as their simulated body fluids environment. The pH and temperature of the solution was maintained at 7.31 and 37°C and took approximately 5 hours for each individual test. The microstructure observations of the steels were studied using optical microscope and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results showed that the cold rolling process has modified the microstructure of 316L stainless steel by producing extensive surface defects. The microstructure modifications of the cold-rolled steel caused to enhance the corrosion resistance by lowering its corrosion rate to 23% and reduce the pitting resistance by lowering its breakdown potential to 61%. The pit corrosion was extensively appeared after reaching the breakdown potential.
