The effect of magnetite on the corrosion of carbon steel was investigated in simulated secondary water of pressurized water reactors at 60°C by using the immersion and electrochemical tests. The corrosion rate of carbon steel was increased by the galvanic coupling with magnetite, and was more accelerated with increasing the area ratio of magnetite to carbon steel. From the electrochemical behavior...
