The effects of C-substitution for part of the N content, on the pitting corrosion resistance and repassivation tendencies of duplex stainless steels (DSSs) were investigated. For this investigation, normal UNS S32205 containing N only (DSS-N) and the C-substituted DSS (DSS-NC) were fabricated. Microstructural analyses confirmed that the two DSSs had dual-phase microstructures without precipitates, and they possessed similar initial microstructure, including their grain sizes and phase fractions. Polarization and immersion tests performed in concentrated chloride solutions revealed that the DSS-NC was more resistant against stable pitting corrosion and possessed a higher repassivation tendency than the DSS-N. Furthermore, the corrosion pits initiated and propagated to a less corrosion resistant α phase. Polarization tests and corrosion depth measurements conducted in an HCl solution indicated that the DSS-NC exhibited lower galvanic corrosion rate between the α and γ phases than the DSS-N. Therefore, the growth rate of pit embryo was lowered in the DSS-NC, which shifted the potentials for the stable pit initiation and the pit extinction to the higher values.

Pit Initiation

Clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) is the major mechanism for internalization in mammalian cells. CME initiates by recruitment of adaptors and clathrin to form clathrin-coated pits (CCPs). Nearly half of nascent CCPs abort, whereas others are stabilized by unknown mechanisms and undergo further maturation before pinching off to form clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs). Phosphatidylinositol-(4,5)-bisphosphate (PIP2), the main lipid binding partner of endocytic proteins, is required for CCP assembly, but little is currently known about its contribution(s) to later events in CCV formation. Using small interfering RNA (siRNA) knockdown and overexpression, we have analyzed the effects of manipulating PIP2 synthesis and turnover on CME by quantitative total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy and computational analysis. Phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate-5-kinase cannot be detected within CCPs but functions in initiation and controls the rate and extent of CCP growth. In contrast, the 5′-inositol phosphatase synaptojanin 1 localizes to CCPs and controls early stabilization and maturation efficiency. Together these results suggest that the balance of PIP2 synthesis in the bulk plasma membrane and its local turnover within CCPs control multiple stages of CCV formation.

Pit Initiation

The pitting susceptibility of passive films formed on X70, X80, and X100 pipeline steels was investigated by means of electrochemical noise (EN) and Mott-Schottky measurements. The EN results were analyzed according to the shot-noise theory and stochastic theory. Pit initiation process was analyzed quantitatively using the Weibull distribution function. Pit growth process was simulated by Gumbel distribution function. The experimental results of Mott-Schottky plots showed that the passive films formed on the three pipeline steels displayed an n-type semiconductor character, and the passive film for X100 pipeline steel has the lowest donor density (ND) among the three passive films. The EN results demonstrated that X100 pipeline steel had the lowest pit initiation rate and pit growth probability, which implied that the X100 pipeline steel had the lowest pitting susceptibility.

Prediction of the accumulated pitting corrosion damage in aluminum-lithium (Al-Li) is of great importance due to the wide application of these alloys in the aerospace industry. The Point Defect Model (PDM) is arguably one of the most well-developed techniques for evaluating the electrochemical behavior of passive metals. In this paper, the passivity breakdown and pitting corrosion performance of AA 2098-T851 was investigated using the PDM with the potentiodynamic polarization (PDP) technique in NaCl solutions at different scan rates, Cl− concentrations and pH. Both the PDM predictions and experiments reveal linear relationships between the critical breakdown potential (Ec) of the alloy and various independent variables, such as a C l − and pH. Optimization of the PDM of the near-normally distributed Ec as measured in at least 20 replicate experiments under each set of conditions, allowing for the estimation of some of the critical parameters on barrier layer generation and dissolution, such as the critical areal concentration of condensed cation vacancies (ξ) at the metal/barrier layer interface and the mean diffusivity of the cation vacancy in the barrier layer (D). With these values obtained—using PDM optimization—in one set of conditions, the Ec distribution can be predicted for any other set of conditions (combinations of a Cl − , pH and T). The PDM predictions and experimental observations in this work are in close agreement.
