Abstract Effect of size on corrosion behavior of 304 stainless steel micro-electrodes was investigated using electrochemical methods (including potentiodynamic polarization curves, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and electrochemical noise (ECN)). The results of potentiodynamic polarization and EIS indicated there is a non-linear relationship between the limiting diffusion current density and the area of electrode. The limiting diffusion current density, the corrosion current density and the double-layer capacitance increased with decreasing the electrode size. On the other hand, the corrosion potential negatively shifted and the solution resistance decreased with the decrease of electrode size. The results of ECN demonstrated that there is a critical size for metastable pitting, the frequency of metastable pitting reduced obviously with the decrease of electrode size.
