| description abstract | This paper is aimed to study the corrosion resistance of Cr10Mo1 alloy corrosion-resistant steel (CR) in the seawater–sea sand concrete pore solution (SWSSCPS), compared with low-carbon steel (LC) and stainless steel (SS). X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), SEM, atomic force microscope, and Mott–Schottky curve tests are applied to obtain information on the composition, structure, and morphology of the corrosion-resistant (CR) passive film. Finally, the difference between CR passive film and the other two kinds of steels under chloride attack is investigated, and the apparent morphology, microstructure, and chemical composition of the CR passive film during the attack are analyzed. With the exposure time increased, the passive film and interfacial integrity of CR are approximately equivalent to that of SS in terms of phase angle in the midband and low-frequency band modulus, indicating the anticorrosion performance of CR has a much better effect than that of LC and close to that of SS. The results reveal that the FeO in the passive film outer layer and a high amount of Cr2O3/Cr(OH)3 in the inner layer prevent CR from further corrosion by chloride ions. | |
