The study of immersion chloride extraction of iron artifacts

The chloride extraction rules of iron artifacts were studied by immersion methods. Different chloride extraction results between the alkaline solution and a washing solution were obtained. The microstructure and the anti-corrosion performance of the samples before and after treatment, were, respectively studied by the scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the potentiodynamic scanning method. The results indicated that Cl- removed according to the diffusion law. The microstructure of the samples transformed after treatment. The rusts became more compact, and the porosity also increased. The chloride extraction effect in the washing solution was better than that in the NaOH solution.
