Abstract
The corrosion resistance of the steel grades 1.4509 and 1.4301 against sodium and calcium chloride, at 650 and 750 °C is investigated by means of cyclic exposure tests (CETs) in dry air. The formation of chromates as well as volatile metal chlorides and oxychlorides leads to non-protective oxide scales on both steel grades. At 650 and 750 °C and in presence of a salt layer the alloy 1.4301 shows a higher corrosion resistance than the material 1.4509. At 750 °C and in presence of salt, the surface of the steel grade 1.4301 is transformed from a face centered cubic (fcc) to a body centered cubic (bcc) lattice, due to corrosion induced de-alloying. The surfaces of both tested materials deplete in chromium, especially at 750 °C. Consequently, the corrosion resistance of the materials exposed to CET decreases sharply in aqueous corrodants.
