Corrosion monitoring in alkaline sulfide kraft pulping liquors has been performed by means of the linear polarization resistance and electrical resistance methods. Corrosion rates obtained in real and simulated white liquors are compared with weight loss results. The importance of Tafel constants to the linear polarization resistance measurements is discussed. The corrosion rates of four materials of construction are compared.
