Abstract

In this study the corrosion effect of AISI 316L Stainless Steel treated by Oxonia-Active (consisting of dihydrogen dioxide and ethaneperoxoic acid solution) and in a mixture consisting of Oxonia-Active and Geotrichum candidum suspension was investigated. The electrochemical behavior made by Linear Polarization indicated that the stainless steel shows a higher corrosion rate in mixture consisting of Oxonia-Active and Geotrichum candidum suspension than in that only Oxonia-Active. The polarization curves obtained at different times after immersion of samples confirm that the mixture of biocide and fungal suspension is more destructive for metallic surface than pure biocide.
