Abstract
In this study, the effects of 1 wt.% Cr addition on the corrosion behavior and mechanisms of low-alloy structural steel in a marine environment were investigated through immersion experiments, corrosion product analysis, and electrochemical experimental systems. The results demonstrate that the addition of 1 wt.% Cr significantly enhances the corrosion resistance of low-alloy steel in marine environments. The influence of Cr addition on the corrosion product layer was analyzed through rust layer morphology, cross-sectional morphology, elemental distribution, and electrochemical systems. Cr addition effectively promotes the densification of the corrosion product layer on the surface of low-alloy steel in marine environments, hindering the penetration of corrosive ions and thus improving corrosion resistance. This study’s findings can promote the optimization of corrosion resistance in low-alloy steel in marine environments and enhance its application prospects in marine environments.
