Are the mechanisms of chloride ion corrosion at high and low temperatures the same?

Heroes! Are the mechanisms of chloride ion corrosion the same at high and low temperatures? In the presence of other different corrosive agents, such as hydrogen sulfide, sulfonic acids degraded by sulfolane, and thermostable salts from MDEA amine solutions, is the corrosion mechanism the same, and does the degree of corrosion differ?
It’s easier to choose materials at low temperatures, but it becomes more complicated at high temperatures; different medium environments require specific analysis
Chloride ions do not cause corrosion on their own; it is other components that cause corrosion, and the corrosion products then interact with chloride ions, resulting in different corrosion rates. Therefore, the behavior varies depending on the medium and temperature.
