AbstrAct Purpose: In the rear section of the automotive exhaust systems condensates bearing appreciable chloride ion concentrations and often low pH-values together with particles of electrochemical active soot can lead to pronounced pitting corrosion on the inner surfaces. For selection of an appropriate material that can enable cost-effective construction, the corrosion resistance of different candidate grades has to be rated. Design/methodology/approach: The different types of occurring corrosion, both general attack and pitting corrosion demands a combination of evaluation methods of the corrosion attack: mass loss measurements and the measure of the average depth of a certain number of pits with an optical 3D-Measuring System MicroCAD were used. Findings: The two methods for the evaluation of the corrosion attack provide the same ranking of the materials. Both methods are complementary to each other and together they provide a noticeable differentiation between some of the investigated materials.
