Pitting is a common type of localized corrosion in passive alloys that can cause rapid failure
of material or equipment. In the case of stainless steels, non-metallic inclusions have been …

Corrosion, more specifically, pitting corrosion happening extremely in marine environments,
leads to lifespan of materials drastically decreasing in service, which causes enormous …

In this work the initial stages of the pitting corrosion in Q460NH weathering steel in a marine
environment was studied. To elucidate the effects of inclusions modified by rare earth (RE) …

In-situ 2D and 3D microscopic technologies are used to analyze the influence of inclusions
on pitting and stress corrosion cracking initiation of X70 steel in near-neutral pH solution …

The correlation between the porosity defects, inevitably existed in thermally sprayed Fe-
based amorphous coating, and the long-term corrosion behaviour of the coated steels have …

The microstructural evolution, pitting performance, and passive-film properties of Al x
CoCrFeNi high-entropy alloys (HEAs) fabricated via laser melting deposition (LMD) were …

In this study, the pitting corrosion behavior of 13Cr4Ni martensitic stainless steel (BASE) and
that modified with rare earth (REM) in 0.1 mol/L NaCl solution were characterized …

Localized corrosion triggered by inclusions is prone to metallic material failure. Except for
chemical dissolution of some special inclusions, the principle of galvanic coupling is the …

This work reports the mechanism of corrosion resistance enhancement of 316 L stainless
steel after Te-RE alloying. The individual MnS inclusions are replaced by composite …

Detailed understanding of localised corrosion phenomena induced by inclusions in low-
alloy steel is extremely critical as any corrosion-induced premature failure can potentially …
