Corrosion behavior of X70 and X80 steel in simulated soil solution with AC interference was studied by applied open circuit potential, polarization curve, scanning electron microscope and gravimetry. The corrosion potential of X70 and X80 steel shifted negatively with increasing AC density. Polarization curves were all in active dissolution zone without passivation area. At the low AC density (0-100 A/m(2)), the corrosion rate of X70 steel increased rapidly with the density increase, while the change of corrosion rate of X70 steel was not as obvious at high AC density (100-300 A/m(2)). Under the AC interference with density of 0-300 A/m(2), the corrosion rate of X80 steel increased steadily with the increase of AC density. At the same AC density, the corrosion rate of X70 steel was about 2 times higher than that of X80 steel. At the low AC density, the surface morphology of the corroded X70 showed uniform corrosion: the sample surface was relatively smooth. At the high AC density, more numerous and larger corrosion pits were observed. When AC density was 0-200 A/m(2), the corrosion morphology of X80 steel was uniform with the smooth surface, only with some pitting corrosion at 300 A/m(2) AC density. Thus, corrosion resistance of X80 steel was better than that of X70 steel in simulated soil solutions.
