Corrosion Behavior of Duplex Stainless Steels (2205) in Seawater in the Presence of Deep Sea Bacteria

Article Preview

Abstract:

The corrosion behavior of duplex stainless steel immersed in nutrient-rich simulated seawater without deep sea bacteria and with deep sea bacteria (Erythrobacter pelagi sp.nov) was studied. The effect of chloride ions and presence of deep sea bacteria on corrosion resistance was investigated. The occurrence of localized corrosion (Viz. pitting and crevice corrosion) was examined using visual inspection and SEM-EDX. Electrochemical impedance spectra were used to study the effects of deep sea bacteria on duplex stainless steel and inferences were made. Most significantly was the reduction of pitting resistance potential with increase in exposure time.
