Abstract
Bulk nanocrystalline ingot iron (BNII) was produced by the severe rolling technique. The corrosion behaviors of BNII and as-received conventional polycrystalline ingot iron (CPII) in 1 M HCl solution were investigated by potentiodynamic polarization tests, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurement, and immersion tests at room temperature. For BNII, the anodic dissolution process is inhibited, but the cathodic process is enhanced. The corrosion current and average corrosion rate of BNII are 0.479 and 0.391 those of CPII, respectively. The resistance of the charge transfer of BNII is about 1.59 times higher than that of CPII. These results indicate that the corrosion resistance of BNII is improved in comparison with CPII.Keywords
