In this study, electrochemical behaviour of passive films formed on AISI 316L stainless steel (AISI 316L) in three acidic solutions concentrations (0.3, 0.6, and 0.9M HNO3) under open circuit potential conditions were evaluated by potentiodynamic polarization, Mott–Schottky analysis and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. The potentiodynamic polarization results showed that...

This study focuses on the semiconductor properties of passive films formed on AISI 420 stainless steel immersed in four nitric acid solutions under open circuit potential (OCP) conditions. For this purpose, the passivation parameters and semiconductor properties of passive films were derived from potentiodynamic polarization and Mott–Schottky analysis, respectively. The OCP plots showed that th...

Potentiodynamic, impedance measurements were carried out on 304 stainless steel in 0.5N, 1.0, 2.0 and 5.0 N H2SO4 solutions. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic [XPS] studies carried out on 304 stainless steel in H2SO4 solutions revealed the existence of CrOOH, Cr2O3, -Fe2O3, FeOOH, Mn2O3, Mn3O4, MnS, Ni (OH)2, Ni2O3, NiO, sulphides. The passive film found to contain chromium oxide inner layer an...
