Abstract
Cavitation erosion and corrosion of mild steel was studied by means of a vibratory facility in 3% w/w NaCl solution. Dynamic Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (DEIS) measurements were carried out in the galvanostatic mode to allow on-line monitoring of impedance parameters in cavitation failure. The results, based on an analysis of instantaneous impedance spectra, correspond to degradation under the influence of cavitation erosion–corrosion. It has been shown that a change of pseudo-capacitance corresponds to an increase in sample roughness, while the charge-transfer resistance determines changes in the corrosion rate under the combined mechanical and electrochemical factors.
