The electrochemical parameters obtained from DEIS were compared with the AFM and SEM studies. Results showed that DEIS is a sensitive technique detecting even very moderate changes in charge -transfer resistance (R-ct); it exhibits a very good correlation with surface morphological changes in relation to exposure time. This research also demonstrated the importance of performing corrosion measurements after a longer time period. (C) 2015 Taiwan Institute of Chemical Engineers. Published by Elsevier B.V.
