Abstract
Cover:The effect of the presence of redox active molecules during a mild anodic polarization of AISI 304 stainless steels was studied with a focus on corrosion and microbially influenced corrosion (MIC) processes. The two‐part publication demonstrates that the presence of minute amounts of flavins in the preconditioning medium is capable of altering the pit nucleation processes (Part I) and promotes subsequent biofilm formation (Part II). Unexpectedly, biofilms formed on surfaces preconditioned in the presence of flavins led to corrosion inhibition.More detailed information can be found in:Nina Wurzler, Oded Sobol, Korinna Altmann, Jörg Radnik, Ozlem Ozcan, Preconditioning of AISI 304 stainless steel surfaces in the presence of flavins – Part I: Effect on surface chemistry and corrosion behavior, Materials and Corrosion 2021, 72, 974.and Nina Wurzler, Jan D.
