Abstract
13Cr martensitic stainless steel is widely used in oil and gas industry. It is well known that addition of molybdenum (Mo) enhances the passivity of steel. However, the role of Mo in passive film has not been clarified completely. The subjects of the present research was to reveal role of Mo in terms of semi-conductivity. The Mott–Schottky plot, obtained by impedance spectroscopy, revealed the effect of Mo addition on the semiconducting property of a passive film under an H2S environment in a pH 4.0 solution at 25 °C. The results revealed that Cr-O of the inner film and sulfide of the outer film exhibited semiconductor p-type and n-type characteristics, respectively. The number of defects in the film on 2.5 mass% Mo-added steel was approximately half of that in the film on Mo free steel. The role of Mo was discussed through investigation using X-ray photoelectron spectrometric analysis based on the existent state of the passive films.
期刊介绍:
CORROSION is the premier research journal featuring peer-reviewed technical articles from the world’s top researchers and provides a permanent record of progress in the science and technology of corrosion prevention and control. The scope of the journal includes the latest developments in areas of corrosion metallurgy, mechanisms, predictors, cracking (sulfide stress, stress corrosion, hydrogen-induced), passivation, and CO2 corrosion.
70+ years and over 7,100 peer-reviewed articles with advances in corrosion science and engineering have been published in CORROSION. The journal publishes seven article types – original articles, invited critical reviews, technical notes, corrosion communications fast-tracked for rapid publication, special research topic issues, research letters of yearly annual conference student poster sessions, and scientific investigations of field corrosion processes. CORROSION, the Journal of Science and Engineering, serves as an important communication platform for academics, researchers, technical libraries, and universities.
Articles considered for CORROSION should have significant permanent value and should accomplish at least one of the following objectives:
• Contribute awareness of corrosion phenomena,
• Advance understanding of fundamental process, and/or
• Further the knowledge of techniques and practices used to reduce corrosion.
