The great demand for techniques that can detect and determine the degree of susceptibility to corrosion motivated thedevelopment of a research project that resulted in the construction of a portable electrochemical cell that has been validated according to ASTM A262. The success of this technique for nondestructive evaluation has motivated the expansion of this technique to other materials and phenomena of precipitation. In this work it was evaluated the use of this EPR-DL portable cell used applied for assessing the susceptibility to corrosion in super duplex stainless steels UNSS32750 and UNSS32760.Those materials were heat treated at 475°C and 850°C at different time of creating different patterns precipitation of deleterious phases to be detected by the cell. The solutions used were: 2M H2SO4 +0.01 M KSCN +0.5 M NaCl (solution 1 ) and 2M H2SO4 +0.01 M KSCN +1.0 M NaCl (solution 2) and the speedsscanswerestudied: 1.67 mV / s , 3.0 mV / s and 6.0 mV / s. To prove the presence of deleterious phases precipitation and associate them with the electrochemical behavior presentedby the electrochemical cell, the sampleshad theirmicrostructuresanalyzedby optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive of X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Also the consumption of ferrite magnetic phase was assessed with ferrite scope and performed Vickers hardness tests to analyze the increasing in hardness due to precipitation of deleterious phases. It was observed by OM, SEM / EDS, ferrite scope, EPRDL and Vickers hardness, that as much longer the heat treatment the amount of deleterious phasesprecipitated was increased. The results demonstrated that the solution 2 was the most effective in detecting susceptibility to corrosion, being capable to detect the depletion of chromium even in conditions of low precipitation and obtaining greater values of Ir/Ia as the scanning speed was reduced to the same condition of heat treatment. All these analyzes has confirmed that the EPR- DL portable cell was able to detect the depletionof chromium caused by the presence of deleterious phases, and reflecting the degree of susceptibility to corrosion of SDSS which were studied .
