Abstract: In order to determine the corrosion reasons of the composite plate (Q345R+316L) pressure vessel and formulate countermeasures, macro-morphological analysis and physical and chemical inspectionwere carried out for the corroded parts of the composite plate. The corrosion resistance and passivation ability of the composite plate laminated stainless steel in chloride environment were verified by cyclic polarization method and constant-potential method. The results indicate that the composite plate has obvious tendency to pitting in chloride environment, and cannot be re-passivated. The composite plate cannot meet the service conditions under current environment and it is necessary to take some measures to control the occurrence of chloride ion corrosion in pressure vessels.
