The results show that non-uniform corrosion occurs on the galvanized steel and IF substrate during 250 h with the mud adhesion. The corrosion products on the galvanized steel are very loose and porous, which are mainly ZnO, Zn5（OH）8C12·H2O and Zn（OH）2, and Fe-Zn alloy layer with a lower corrosion rate is exposed on the galvanized steel surface; however, the corrosion products on IF substrate are considerably harder and denser, whose compositions of rust are mainly FeOOH and Fe3O4, and several pits appear on their surface. The results of continuous EIS and linear polarization measurements exhibit a corrosion mechanism, that is, under activation control, the charge transfer resistances present different tendencies between the galvanized steel and IF substrate; in addition, the evolution of linear polarization resistances is similar to that of charge transfer resistances. The higher contents of dissolved oxygen and Cl^- ions in the mud play an important role in accelerating the corrosion.展开更多

The surface morphology and grain size of the steel were analyzed by scanning electronic microscope （SEM） and X-ray diffraction （XRD）. It was found that the IF steel treated by SNC and SNC ＋ 1% roiling got reductions of 200 mV and 300 mV in HE over-potentials ,respectively. Their real surface areas are enlarged by about 20 times and the hydrogen evolution reaction activation flee energies are about 50% of the original IF steels＇ s activation free energy.展开更多
