    Effect of Surface finish on Corrosion Resistance of SS316L

    We are OEM suppliers of instrumentation. There has been a debate on the effect of surface finish on the corrosion resistance of a given material (SS 316L) in given corrosive environment (acids or high chlorides). Can someone pl. guide me if any such studies have been done to prove that - an as...
