Abstract
Previous work showed that mass transfer conditions affect the critical current density during potentiodynamic polarization measurements on Type 304 stainless steel in dilute sulfuric acid containing thiocyanate. This work used rotating disk electrodes of sensitized Type 304 stainless steel to test whether the mass transfer conditions would also affect double-loop electrochemical potentiodynamic reactivation sensitization tests. The critical current density during the forward scan was found to increase slightly with increased rotation rate, but there was no effect on the critical current density during the reactivation scan.
