Abstract The influence of temperature and NaCl-content on the corrosion behavior of heat-treated U75V rail steel with fine pearlite lamellar microstructure in NaCl solutions was assessed via full-immersion corrosion tests with mass loss measurement, macroscopic morphology observation, scanning electron microscopy,and X-ray diffraction. The results indicate that the increase in solution temperature significantly accelerates the corrosion process, and the corrosion rate is positively correlated with temperature. At 45 ℃, the steel exhibits the highest free-corrosion current density (Icorr) and the lowest charge transfer resistance (Rct), but the temperature variation does not alter the phase composition of the corrosion products. The effect of NaCl content shows a nonlinear characteristic: when the NaCl content (mass fraction) increases from 2.0% to 3.5%, the surface passivation film is gradually destroyed by Cl- attack and the anodic dissolution is promoted, leading to increase in Icorr and decrease in Rct, i.e. the corrosion of U75V steel is intensified. However, when the NaCl content increases to 5.0%, the solution with high ionic strength may promote the formation of protective corrosion product α-FeOOH and significantly inhibit the dissolved oxygen, resulting in decrease in Icorr and n increase in Rct, thereby, the corrosion rate decreases instead.
