Abstract
The electrochemical corrosion properties of 26Mn-3Si-3Al and 27Mn-4Si-2Al austenitic steels in two different states were studied in 0.1 M H2SO4 and 3.5% NaCl using potentiodynamic polarization tests. The effect of cold deformation on the microstructure and corrosion behavior of steels was analyzed. In acid solution, both steels exhibited lower corrosion resistance than in chloride solution independently on the steel state (hot-rolled, cold-worked). Cold deformation decreases the corrosion resistance, though this effect is smaller than the effect of chemical composition related to the combined Al + Si addition. All steels showed the evidence of pitting corrosion. The intensive dissolution of Fe and Mn takes place in the acid medium.
