Microstructure and electrochemical corrosion behaviour of API 5L X90 pipeline steel in a simulated soil environment by Mahdi Yeganeh, Mostafa Eskandari, Hasan Mousavi

“…As a result of corrosion products forming on the active sites and rendering them inactive, the charge transfer resistance increased by approximately 1.5 times. Potentiodynamic polarization tests indicated an absence of passivation, accompanied by a decrease in corrosion current density and a shift in corrosion potential toward the cathodic direction during immersion. …”
