Abstract
Passive layers on high alloyed chromium nickel steels protect the metal from corrosion. The protective effect of the passive layer, however, does not immediately exist after the final surface treatment. Some time is necessary to form the protective layer. The exposure conditions are also decisive for the formation and further development of the passive layer besides the surface treatment. Samples of different chromium nickel steels are pickled and active passivated before they are exposed under laboratory conditions and in outdoor climates at different locations. The state of the corrosion resistance of the surface is determined with electrochemical noise measurements after different exposure times. The decreasing activity of the surface with an increasing exposure time indicates the further formation process of the protective qualities of the passive layer. An index which quantifies the state of the surface at the time of the measuring is calculated from the measured potential and potential noise signals. With these results, the development of the passive layer can be assessed and the corrosion resistance of the metal can then be estimated.
