Abstract
The repassivation behaviour of an 18Cr10Ni steel strained in tension in room temperature solutions of pH 2 containing chloride ion concentrations of 0·01M, 0·1M and 1·0M has been studied as a function of strain and potential under potentiostatic conditions. After straining the current decays such that — log i t is constant and this is interpreted as arising from the summation of a series of transients. The charge flowing during the repassivation process has been calculated and varies considerably, increasing with increasing strain and chloride ion concentration and as the potential is made more noble.
