Abstract

In this study corrosion resistance of 316L stainless steel has been investigated in a solution containing different percentages of hypochloric solution. In order to examine the rate and mechanism of the occurrence of pitting corrosion in this steel, various corrosion tests have been used. In addition, the locale of the pitting corrosion has been examined by scanning electron microscope. Results show that the presence of chlorine ion with the increase of cathodic reaction rates cause to increase the likelihood of pitting corrosion in 316L steel.
