Abstract
Potentiostatic studies, conducted in the Tafel region in 5% sodium chl oride solution, on nn experimental white cast iron, characterized the suitability of various microstructures in resisting corrosion. The stu dy showed that in most instances single-step polarization curves indic ated corrosion was a single process. In some instances, two-step polar ization curves indicated corrosion occurred in two stages. Factors lea ding to these differences are identified and explained.
