“…The anodic current densities of A508III steel and iron were higher than the other alloys with certain contents of Cr and Ni. Equations [4], [7] and [8] are the main anodic and cathodic reactions for A508III steel and iron. Equations [4]- [6] are the main anodic reactions and [7]- [8] the main cathodic reactions for Cr, Ni, 316L SS, 430 SS and Alloy 690.…”

Equations [4]- [6] are the main anodic reactions and [7]- [8] the main cathodic reactions for Cr, Ni, 316L SS, 430 SS and Alloy 690. The cathodic polarization curves for the alloys with certain content of Cr and Ni present three parts.…”

“…Zone III comes from the hydrogen evolution reaction. The active-passive transition regions on the anodic polarization curves for 316L SS and 430 SS should mainly reflect the behavior of passive film formation reaction (6), as shown in Equation [3], and the transpassivation may come from the oxidation of Cr 3+ to Cr 6+ according to the reported potential-pH diagrams of Cr (6,11). It has been reported (6,17) that a higher Cr content in Ni base alloys such as Alloy 690 corresponds to a lower critical current density and passive current density.…”

“…PWR primary water contains boric acid and lithium hydroxide. Under leaking conditions, the primary water could be concentrated due to evaporation and become aerated as the results of contacting with the environment, producing varying degrees of external corrosion (3,4). There could be corrosion product such as rust or ferric ions at the leaking sites.…”

The effects of alloying elements on the electrochemical behaviors in ferric sulfate solution at 25 oC were investigated using A508III low alloy steel, pure Fe, Cr, Ni, 316L SS, 430 SS and Alloy 690. The electrochemical behaviors of A508III steel and iron are similar, showing no active-passivation transition on the anodic polarization curves and no mass-transport-controlled region on the cathodic polarization curves. Active-passivation transition appears on the anodic polarization curves of 316L and 430 steel. Mass-transport-controlled region appears on the cathodic polarization curves of the alloys with certain contents of Cr and Ni. Certain contents of Cr and Ni in alloys increases the open circuit potential, decreases the current density, and increases the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy value. A higher Cr content results in a higher EIS value.

“…In nuclear power plants, some components such as reactor pressure vessels (RPV), piping, valves, pumps, threaded fasteners and other structural steels are constructed with carbon steels and low alloy steels (LASs) (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9). A533B and A508III LASs are often used as RPV materials and other key components in nuclear power plants.…”

The corrosion and electrochemical behavior of A508III low alloy steel in boric acid solutions with or without LiOH at 25 °C and 70 °C were studied by weightloss measurements and electrochemical measurements. Depending on the solution composition and the resultant pH, A508III low alloy steel could be in active dissolution state or in passive state. These results were consistent with the potential-pH diagram. Increasing temperature or boric acid concentration of solutions accelerated the corrosion rates and electrochemical processes. Corrosion rates decreased with the addition of LiOH. Adding LiOH in H3BO3 solutions increased the current densities at relatively high anodic potentials, which had a complex effect on electrochemical impedance spectroscopy.
