摘要
Corrosion behaviour of two newly developed axle steels (MS3 and MS6) is critically analysed and compared with that of the conventional railway axle steel with respect to the rust formed on the surface and microstructure of the steels. The microstructure of all three steels is ferrite-pearlite. Immersion, salt-fog exposure and dynamic polarisation tests in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution are carried out. New steels have much better mechanical properties and comparable corrosion resistance in immersion and dynamic polarisation test and much better corrosion resistance in salt-fog exposure test than that of the conventional axle steel.
