The influence of UV illumination on passivity and pitting susceptibility on X70 pipeline steel in a borate buffer (pH=8.4) solution containing NaCl is described. It is observed that illumination of the sample leads to a decrease in its pitting susceptibility, as indicated by pitting potential and incubation time measurements in chloride containing electrolytes. This effect is strongly dependent on the applied potential during passivation. The electronic properties of the passive films on X70 steel were studied by Mott-Schottky analysis and photocurrent transient measurements. The results indicated that illumination during passivation led to modifications in the electronic properties of the passive films, mainly to a decrease of the bulk doping and an increase in the surface state density. The cause for the decreased pitting susceptibility is preliminary explained in terms of such modifications of the passive film.
