Corrosion performance of additively manufactured stainless steel parts: A review (2020, background): “chemistry changes of the solution inside the pore de-passivates and hinders the formation of the passive layer [140,159,160].”
Pitting corrosion in pipeline steel weld zones (2011, background): “Typically, the maximum pit depth increases significantly after some initial period of exposure that lasts from months to years, depending on water temperature [15].”
Metastable pitting corrosion of 304 stainless steel in 3.5% NaCl solution (2014, methodology): “An ohmic potential drop may exist between the pit interior and the cathodic reaction region [2,12,20], but it cannot lead to concentrations of metal cations and chloride; thereby it cannot be the controlling factor in pit propagation.”
Composition changes around sulphide inclusions in stainless steels, and implications for the initiation of pitting corrosion (2010, neutral): “[48,52] as the precursors to pitting corrosion.”
