Abstract

The elementally resolved dissolution kinetics of a Ni-Fe-Cr-Mn-Co multi-principal element alloy (MPEA) was investigated by in-situ atomic emission spectroelectrochemistry (AESEC) coupled to electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Potentiostatic AESEC-EIS experiments were conducted at open circuit potential and a passive potential in 2 M H2SO4 solution. Elemental Lissajous plot enabled to determine the elemental Tafel slopes of each alloying element suggesting that the different elemental oxidation rate would lead to a duplex oxide formation during passivation. Elementally resolved dissolution rates in spontaneous dissolution (elemental corrosion rates) were estimated by Stern-Geary equation with elemental Tafel slopes and polarization resistance obtained from EIS.
