Insight into the role of Si on corrosion resistance of weathering steel in a simulated industrial atmosphere

This study investigates the role of Si on the corrosion resistance of weathering steel (WS) in a simulated industrial environment. With increasing Si content (0.15–0.50%), the corrosion resistance of WS is enhanced. On the one hand, the rust layer becomes compact and uniform because higher Si conten...
