An inexpensive holder for corrosion experiments was developed to avoid crevice corrosion during electrochemical tests for studying pitting corrosion of stainless steels and other corrosion-resistant alloys. The working principle follows Qvarfort’s electrochemical cell. Therefore, this holder enables measurements of pitting potentials of metals susceptible to crevice corrosion. The sample holder attaches to cylindrical or prismatic coupons cut from bars or plates. The coupon thickness has to be greater than 10 mm. The holder is suitable for any chloride concentration and solution temperature at ambient pressure. The testing solution can be deaerated or saturated with any gas if needed. The method was validated by cyclic potentiodynamic polarization experiments on alloys UNS S30400, S31600 stainless steel and nickel-base alloys UNS N08031 and N07022. Results show that the pitting repassivation potential decreases linearly with temperature. Pitting repassivation potentials on stainless steels were 100-150 mV higher than the corresponding crevice repassivation potentials obtained by the PD-GS-PD method. Undesired localized corrosion near the holder electrical connection was not evident in multiple replicate specimens tested with the proposed method.
