Abstract
To analyze the repassivation mechanism induced by SO42â ions, in situ monitoring of the crevice corrosion morphology on Type 316L stainless steel was performed. The repassivation of the crevice corrosion was observed when the solution was changed from 1Â M NaCl to 0.88Â M Na2SO4 or to 1Â M NaCl-0.88Â M Na2SO4. The active dissolution of Type 316L stainless steel was suppressed by SO42â ions at pH 0.4 in anodic polarization measurements. The transition from active to passive states inside the crevice was likely promoted by SO42â ions.
