Abstract
To clarify the effect of the acid solution type on corrosion resistance, the corrosion behavior of stainless steel brazed joints in HCl aqueous solution was evaluated through electrochemical measurements. Anodic polarization curves of a ferritic stainless-steel base metal, Ni-based brazing filler metals, and a brazed joint were recorded. In addition, in situ observations were conducted to observe the corrosion behavior of each structure of the brazed joint. Corrosion potentials of the brazing filler metal were lower than that of the base metal. In situ observations of the brazed joint revealed the order of corrosion in aqueous hydrochloric acid. According to the electrochemical measurements, under an actual corrosive environment, the brazing filler metal can function as an anode and selectively corrode. In addition, the anodic polarization curve of the brazed joint showed values between those of the polarization curves of the brazing filler metal and the base metal, indicating that the corrosion resistance could be electrochemically evaluated in HCl aqueous solution.
