Abstract

The corrosion behavior of E690 steel in 3.5% (mass fraction) NaCl solution by applied elastic alternating stresses of different frequencies (0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 1.3, 1.8 and 2.0 Hz) was studied by electrochemical test and surface characterization. Results show that there is a critical loading frequency for the applied alternating stress that divides the corrosion electrochemical behavior into two different regions. When loading frequency is below the critical frequency, the maximum strain rate of E690 steel and the number of active sites on steel surface increases with the increasing loading frequency. The corrosion process is mainly controlled by activation. The corrosion rate and the portion of localized corrosion area increase with the increase of the loading frequency. When loading frequency is higher than the critical frequency, the corrosion process is mainly controlled by diffusion. Hence, the loading frequency has little impact on the corrosion rate and localized corrosion area.

Key words: alternating stress loading frequency E690 steel electrochemical behavior
