Abstract
The addition of Ca and Sb in Cr‐bearing steel presents improved corrosion resistance during the field exposure test in a marine atmosphere environment. Through local hydrolysis reactions, Ca and Sb can form CaO, Sb2O3, and Sb2O5 to prevent the intrusion Cl− into the corrosion product film, which improves the protectiveness of the corrosion product film and reduces the corrosion rate. The formation of CaCl2 decreases the relative content of β‐FeOOH and makes the corrosion product film more stable. Due to the inhibition of Sb on the local acidification of corrosion product film, Ca and Cr are able to bond with more hydroxide for generating the corresponding oxides and improving the corrosion resistance of Cr‐bearing steel.
