Statistical Analysis of Corrosion Process Flow

This paper presents the results of testing two different materials in aggresive atmosphere rich in sodium chloride (NaCl) depending on different time intervals (48, 96, 168, 240 hours), in order to determine the corrosion process flow. One of the materials is general structural steel SA516 Gr.70 and the other is austenitic stainless steel X6CrNiTi18-10. The test results were statistically analyzed with the aim of obtaining statistical regression models, as well as to investigate the effect of alloying elements on the corrosion process flow. Models for predicting the corrosion process flow (mass loss) of both materials were obtained by statistical analysis and it was determined that the proportion of alloying elements influences the change in the flow. Accordingly, general structural steel is characterized by linear, while austenitic stainless steel is marked by slow corrosion process flow. This indicates that the proportion of alloying elements which improve the corrosion resistance of the material strongly affects the durability of the material in an aggressive environment.
