Abstract

An investigation of the behaviour of a FeNi alloy (64-36) was undertaken in sulfate solutions of pH from 1.7 to 9, and the effects of Cl − ions and dissolved oxygen were examined. In the absence of these two species, the alloy is in the active state in the whole pH range and only becomes passive in neutral solutions at high concentrations of oxygen. Pitting was found to occur only in acidic solutions in the presence of Cl − ions.
