galvanic corrosion

[siretb]

I am not a specialist at all in corrosion.
When I read the galvanic Series, I see two entries for 316L (active) and (passive)
How do I know which entry to select?
in itself, 316L is OK for this environment.

I want to check if I have significant galvanic corrosion between 316L and Titanium (neutral Brines containing Cl-, not seewater). a former post thread338-53910 from kenvlach, indicates SS and titanium as incompatible.

You need a basic text on corrosion. 316 can take both potentials. If it stays passive, then you are fine. If it goes active, then it is corrosing.

You are in a high conductivity environment, if there is a lot of Ti surface area relitive to the 316 you will have trouble.

Corrosion, every where, all the time.
Manage it or it will manage you.
