Abstract: A new type of acid-resistant steel containing 0.09%Bi for railway open car was developed. The dynamic CCT curve was drawn through thermal simulation test, and the sulfuric acid corrosion resistance of the steel was studied by means of full immersion test and electrochemical test. The results show that with the increase of cooling rate, the microstructure changes from pearlite+ferrite to bainite and is refined. After hot rolling in the laboratory, water cooling to 622 ℃, and then asbestos coil cooling to room temperature, the microstructure obtained is ferrite and a small amount of bainite. After full immersion corrosion test, the corrosion products on the surface of the steel is smooth and the corrosion is light, and the mechanical properties and sulfuric acid corrosion resistance of the steel meet the requirements of Q/ASB 174—2016 standard. The electrochemical corrosion test show that the self-corrosion potential, self-corrosion current and corrosion rate of the steel are better than that of the Q345B steel, and the oxide film with dense corrosion products rich in Cu2S on the surface significantly improves the corrosion resistance.
