Abstract

Cover: Corrosion of stainless steel ropes from a nominally austenitic alloy in seawater may result in hollow wires. This phenomenon was replicated by electrochemical tests and analysis of EBSD data indicates the susceptibility to such preferential axial corrosion being much more related to crystal orientation than to the amount of α'-martensite induced by cold drawing of the wires. Different production technologies may result in significantly diff erent corrosion behaviour. More detailed information can be found in: Paul Linhardt, Maria V. Biezma, Roland Haubner, Roman Schuster, Tomasz Wojcik, Hollow wire corrosion of stainless steel ropes in a marine mooring system and its relation to microstructure, Materials and Corrosion 2023, 74, 818.
