Abstract
Abstract The paper presents the results of corrosion resistance tests carried out on high-alloyed white cast iron. Tests were performed in 0.1 M NaCl by the technique of linear voltammetry. The test material was collected from six high-vanadium cast iron melts with a variable content of carbon and vanadium, and thus with different microstructure. Studies have confirmed that the type of crystallised microstructure has a very important effect on the alloy corrosion resistance. The highest corrosion resistance showed the alloy with a ferritic matrix containing the spheroidal precipitates of vanadium carbide VC, while the lowest had the eutectic alloy with a pearlitic matrix.
