Sažetak
In this paper the corrosion resistance of tool steel for hot work in the industrial emulsion medium (Lenox Band-Ade semi-synthetic oil + water, in ratio 1:10), water and 3.5% NaCl medium was tested. By Tafel’s extrapolation from polarization curves it was established that the tested tool steel showed extremely high corrosion rate in water and 3.5% NaCl medium in contrast to medium of Lenox BandAde emulsion. The double higher corrosion rate of tool steel is recorded in the chloride medium as opposed to that obtained in water, indicating that the tested steel is more corrosion resistant in water. The obtained results were confirmed by the method of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The sample of tool steel in the Lenox Band-Ade emulsion medium showed far greater value of charge transfer resistance Rct than that obtained in the water medium and 3.5% NaCl, which means that the Lenox Band-Ade emulsion formed a thicker oxide layer that has the role of barrier in further penetration of aggressive ions from the solution. The conducted SEM analysis after electrochemical measurements in 3.5% NaCl medium indicate the occurrence of pitting corrosion caused by breaking the passive surface of the material as a result of the action of aggressive ions from the solution. The EDS analysis of formed pits has been shown the increased oxygen content, but also the higher presence of sodium and chlorine, which accumulate in the pits, and come from the medium. Molybdenum and tungsten showed the highest presence in white deposits on the sample surface, which represent parts that did not completely cover with oxide layer, which is why the smallest oxygen content was recorded at these sites. The obtained corrosion rate values in the water medium and the chloride medium indicate that the studied tool steel is poorly stable in water and chloride media, and because of that it can only be used in exceptional cases under conditions in which it will come into contact with water or chloride medium.
