For Q235 carbon steels in 0.01 mol L NaNO2-HCl solutions with different pH values, the effects of pH values on the functional mechanisms of nitrite anions (NO2) were studied. In the pH 1 and pH 2 solutions, the Q235 steels showed the electrochemical behavior of activation, and uniform corrosion (UC) was the main corrosion type on the Q235 surface. The presence of NO2 did not affect the electrochemical behavior and the corrosion type but only accelerated the anodic reaction of Fe oxidation. In the pH 3 and pH 4 solutions, the Q235 steels presented the electrochemical behavior of activation-passivation transition, and intergranular corrosion (IGC) occurred on the Q235 surface. The cathodic reaction of NO2 reduction resulted in the transition of electrochemical behavior from activation to passivation and the change of corrosion type from UC to IGC. In the pH 5 and pH 6 solutions, the Q235 steels exhibited the electrochemical behavior of self passivation-pitting, and pitting corrosion (PC) was present on the Q235 surface. The strong oxidability of NO2 played a critical role in the formation of γ-Fe2O3 passive film on the Q235 surface under the combined action of Fe and NO2.
