Notes:
An ElectroScan ESEM was used for in situ corrosion studies on cold drawn electropolished 316L stainless steel tube surfaces in the as-received and passivated conditions. Corrosion product was removed as it formed and the tube surface was viewed before, during, and after corrosive attack. The corrosion process was followed in situ, and the sample features most susceptible to corrosion (draw lines, inclusions, etc.) were identified. In addition, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to study the changes in surface chemistry after corrosive attack. This information provided clear evidence of relevant corrosion mechanisms and relative corrosion susceptibility. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
