摘　　要：The effects of bentonite content on the corrosion behavior of low carbon steel in 5 mM NaHCO3+ 1 mM NaCl + 1 mM Na2SO4 solution were investigated by electrochemical measurements combined with X-ray diffraction(XRD) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM). In the initial immersion stage, the cathodic process of low carbon steel corrosion was dominated by the reduction of dissolved oxygen, while it transformed to the reduction of ferric corrosion products with the immersion time. The presence of bentonite colloids could suppress the cathodic reduction of oxygen due to their barrier effect on the diffusion of oxygen. However, the barrier performance of bentonite layer was gradually deteriorated due to the coagulation and separation of bentonite colloids caused by the charge neutralization of iron corrosion products dissolved from the steel substrate. More bentonite colloids could maintain the barrier effect for a long time before it was deteriorated by the accumulation of corrosion products. Conversely,it could lose the performance completely, and the corrosion behavior of low carbon steel reverted to the same as that in the blank solution.
