Abstract
The corrosion and erosion-corrosion behaviors in the weld heat-affected zone (HAZ) of Hadfield steels with varying Cr contents (1, 2, and 3 wt%) were examined. Various experimental methods, including electrochemical polarization, impedance, and weight loss measurements, were utilized. Two types of isothermal heat treatments were conducted in a box furnace..... More

Abstract
The objective of this study was to examine the wear-corrosion behavior of 18Mn(V, Mo) steel, which had a minor amount of Cr addition (< 3 wt%), in an artificial seawater environment, and compare it to conventional carbon steel. A variety of electrochemical experiments, including linear polarization resistance, impedance spectroscopy, and..... More
