Abstract: | Hydrogen uptake by iron during corrosion in neutral to weakly acid electrolytes During atmospheric corrosion and corrosion by aqueous solutions, hydrogen can enter into steel. The hydrogen activity built up in iron during corrosion by dilute aqueous solutions of hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid and iron salts has been measured as a function of pH using a permeation technique. Below pH = 5 in oxygen free solutions and pH = 4 in air saturated solutions the hydrogen activity documentclass{article}pagestyle{empty}begin{document}$ a_{rm H} {rm = }sqrt {{rm p}_{{rm H}_{rm 2} } {rm /(}mathop {{rm p}_{{rm H}_{rm 2} } }limits^{rm o} {rm = 1},{rm bar)}} $end{document} reaches values of more than 0.1 sufficient to cause delayed cracking of steels susceptible to hydrogen embrittlement. The anions and Na+-ions have no markable influence. The influence of Fe3+ and O2 is discussed. |
