Abstract:

Pitting corrosion is a primary corrosion type of stainless steel, and pitting potential is often used to evaluate the difficulty of corrosion of stainless steel. The pitting potential is affected by many factors. Based on the elemental composition and process parameters of stainless steel, support vector regression (SVR) was used to establish a model for predicting the pitting potential. The results showed that the correlation coefficient of the independent test set could reach 0.97 with the corresponding root mean square error (RMSE) of only 0.07. From the Pearson correlation analysis and sensitivity analysis, the element contents of Cr and Mo and the temperature had a crucial influence on the pitting potential, and a small amount of rare earth elements could improve the corrosion resistance of stainless steel.

Key words: stainless steel, pitting potential, machine learning (ML)
