Acidic corrosion behaviour of niobium-added welding overlays fabricated by self-shielded metal-cored wires by Liu, Dashuang, Wu, Yucheng, Long, Weimin, Wei, Ping, Wang, Rui, Zhou, Wei

“…In order to determine the amount of ferroniobium addition in the wire to achieve the best corrosion resistance, and find out the mechanism of ferroniobium enhancing the corrosion resistance of the welding overlays, the high-Cr iron-based welding overlays with different niobium addition were fabricated by using self-made self-shielded metal-cored wires and their acidic corrosion resistance in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution + 0.01 mol/L HCl solution were investigated by electrochemical corrosion test. …”
