Sulfur-Assisted Corrosion Mechanisms and the Role of Alloyed Elements... 

It should be noted that photoelectrochemical investigations [15b] suggest that the last two reactions, involving the formation and then dismutation of S2O33-and resulting in the formation of adsorbed sulfur, are operating in some cases. Photoelectrochemical microscopy shows the deposition around the inclusions of a ring of material deduced to be sulfur, which is consistent with the results of several other studies [6,10b]. A detailed analysis of the fundamental aspects of the sulfur-assisted corrosion mechanisms is presented in Chapter 9.
