The localised corrosion resistance (pitting and crevice corrosion) of the high alloy 24.1Cr22Ni7.1Mo superaustenitic stainless steel has been studied in solutions with chloride concentrations between 200 and 6.000 ppm. A similar study has been carried out using mixtures of equal concentrations of chloride and fluoride ions in the range of 400 to 12.000 ppm. pH values varied from 2 to 6.5. The critical temperatures for pitting and crevice corrosion have been calculated for these test media using electrochemical techniques (direct current). From the results obtained by cyclic polarisation, the critical pitting temperature (CPT) and the critical crevice temperature (CCT) have been determined for this material in each of tested media. The resistance of this material to localised corrosion is high, mainly due to the high repassivation rate in the tested media. At the highest tested concentration of chloride and fluoride ions and at pH 6.5, the material undergoes a generalised attack.
