Abstract:The aim of this paper was to investigate the effect of increasing cobalt content on the corrosion resistance of the FeCo-Cr-B-Si alloys in dilute mineral acids. The corrosion rates in 0.5N HCl, 1N HCl and 1N H 2 SO 4 significantly decrease with an increase in cobalt content. The alloys with a larger amount of cobalt can passivate spontaneously. The high corrosion resistance of the Fe-Co-Cr-B-Si alloys is also due to the formation of chromium -enriched passive film. Generally, the corrosion resistance of chromi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
