Study of the corrosion behaviour of S32101 duplex and 410 martensitic stainless steel for application in oil refinery distillation systems

The corrosion behaviour of S32101 duplex and 410 martensitic stainless steel was studied through weight loss and potentiodynamic polarization in 1–6 M HCl solutions. Results show that S32101 steel has significantly lower corrosion rates than 410 steel from both tests at all concentrations with highest values of 0.04586 mm/y and 0.234 mm/y in comparison to martensitic steel with corrosion rates of 0.827 mm/y and 19.84 mm/y at 6 M HCl concentration. Micrographs from SEM and EDS analyses showed a less corroded morphology for S32101 steel with fewer pits and slight depletion in the percentage composition of chromium and other alloying elements.
