Corrosion resistance of SS 316L in simulated concrete pore solution in presence of trisodium citrate

The corrosion resistance of SS 316L in simulated concrete pore solution, namely, saturated calcium hydroxide solution, in the absence and presence of 100ppm of trisodium citrate (TSC) has been evaluated by electrochemical studies such as polarization study and AC impedance spectra. Polarization study reveals that in presence of TSC, the corrosion resistance of SS 316L in simulated concrete pore solution decreases. AC impedance spectra reveal that in the presence of TSC, the corrosion resistance of SS 316L in simulated concrete solution decreases.
