Materials and Corrosion is a leading international journal at the interface of materials science, metallurgy, and metallurgical engineering, with a strong focus on corrosion science.

Our scope encompasses all aspects of the behavior of materials in corrosive environments as well as corrosion testing, protection, and prevention. Thus, we provide an important resource for researchers and professionals concerned with corrosion and materials degradation, including materials scientists, mechanical engineers, equipment manufacturers, metallurgists, and environmental scientists.

Effect of Sulfate‐Based Stabilizers on the Rust Layer Formation and Corrosion Resistance of Q420qNH Weathering Steel

  •  2 February 2025

Graphical Abstract

Effect of Sulfate-Based Stabilizers on the Rust Layer Formation and Corrosion Resistance of Q420qNH Weathering Steel Issue ,

This study investigated the use of sulfate-based stabilizers to stabilize the surface of Q420qNH weathering steel (WS) and their effect on rust layer formation and corrosion resistance. Dry/wet cyclic corrosion tests (CCT) were used to examine the effects of the various treatment regimens. The results demonstrated that sulfate-based stabilizers accelerated the formation of α-FeOOH, thereby enhancing the corrosion resistance of WS in simulated marine atmospheres.
