Evaluation of Corrosion Progression in X210Cr12 Tool Steel in a Marine-like Chloride Environment Using SEM/EDS and PCA Techniques

Corrosion of high-chromium tool steels in marine environments is a major concern for structural materials, as chloride-rich conditions accelerate material degradation and reduce service life. The corrosion process involves complex interactions among passive film degradation, loca...
