The corrosion behaviors of alloy 690 in 1 wt pct sodium hydroxide aqueous solutions with and without PbO were characterized by electrochemical measurements, including potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and Mott-Schottky measurement. The results reveal that there is a great difference between the corrosion behaviors of alloy 690 in the two tested solutions. The corrosion current density in PbO-containing solution is higher than that in the solution without PbO, which may be attributed to the anodic dissolution of metallic lead deposited at the early stage of polarization. The electrochemical impedance of the specimen in PbO-free solution is higher than that in the solution containing PbO. The slope of the Mott-Schottky curve in Pb-containing solution decreases notably compared with that in the Pb-free solution, which can be interpreted by the chromium depletion in the duplex structure of passive films.
