Download or read book Environmental Cracking of Corrosion Resistant Alloys in the Chemical Process Industry A Review written by R. B. Rebak and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A large variety of corrosion resistant alloys are used regularly in the chemical process industry (CPI). The most common family of alloys include the iron (Fe)-based stainless steels, nickel (Ni) alloys and titanium (Ti) alloys. There also other corrosion resistant alloys but their family of alloys is not as large as for the three groups mentioned above. All ranges of corrosive environments can be found in the CPI, from caustic solutions to hot acidic environments, from highly reducing to highly oxidizing. Stainless steels are ubiquitous since numerous types of stainless steels exist, each type tailored for specific applications. In general, stainless steels suffer stress corrosion cracking (SCC) in hot chloride environments while high Ni alloys are practically immune to this type of attack. High nickel alloys are also resistant to caustic cracking. Ti alloys find application in highly oxidizing solutions. Solutions containing fluoride ions, especially acid, seem to be aggressive to almost all corrosion resistant alloys.

Download or read book Environmentally Assisted Cracking in the Chemical Process Industry Stress Corrosion Cracking of Iron Nickel and Cobalt Based Alloys in Chloride and Wet HF Services written by RB. Rebak and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many different alloys are used in the fabrication equipment for the chemical process industry (CPI) and the most common of these alloys are iron base (stainless steels). During service, the primary cause of failure of engineering alloys is stress corrosion cracking (SCC). Although the occurrence of environmentally induced cracking might be prevented by reducing the level of tensile stresses on components, this approach is seldom practiced. In some cases, failure can be avoided through a proper alloy selection based on results from laboratory testing. The aim of this paper is to assess the predictive capabilities of laboratory testing for cases of SCC in the CPI. Instances of chloride cracking and wet hydrofluoric acid (HF) cracking in the field are analyzed based on results from laboratory testing.

Download or read book Stress Corrosion Cracking of Steels in Industrial Process Environments written by Edward Ernest Heaver and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The interactions between engineering materials and their environment which give rise to stress corrosion cracking are reviewed and industrial examples from the petrochemical industry are described. In one of the examples, cracking took place in carbon steel exposed to pressurised gas containing carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and water. The crack morphology in this system was studied by metallography of samples from industrial gas processing plants and the crack growth rates were determined using precracked specimens. Constant extension rate tests, U-bend specimens and potentiodynamic studies were used to evaluate alternative materials and inhibitor additions in CO-C02-H20 environments. Electrochemical noise was accessed as a technique to monitor sec on line. It was found that the CO-C02-H20 system was characterised by a time dependent adsorption of carbon monoxide at anodic and cathodic sites. The adsorption produced a critical balance between crack tip corrosion rate and the repassivation process comparable to the behaviour at the active-passive transition zone in more conventional systems. The anodic passivation exhibited a breakdown potential near to -400 mV (Ag/ AgCI) that defined the zone of sec susceptibility. Inhibition by CO and hence sec was virtually independent of CO partial pressure provided there was a sufficient reservoir of CO. The addition of commercial film forming inhibitors did not greatly influence the system and sec was still observed in CO-C02-H20 environments to which inhibitors had been added. Steels containing alloy additions of more than 9 % chromium were found to be resistant to sec but austenitic-ferritic weld joints cracked. A low alloy 3% nickel steel performed well in the constant extension rate tests but was not wholly resistant to sec. The morphology of stress corrosion cracks in CO-C02-H20 mixtures was influenced by carbon monoxide partial pressure. More corrosion was observed on the crack walls at low carbon monoxide partial pressure and widened cracks resembling mesa Ģ corrosion were common. This increased corrosion was probably due to difficulty in maintaining passivity in the crevice formed by the growing crack. Similarly, crevicing in precracked specimens appeared to inhibit sec and no crack extension was observed. Electrochemical noise proved to be a useful tool for monitoring.

Book excerpt: Stress corrosion cracking, including hydrogen embrittlement, has probably attracted more attention in the last decade than any other single facet of the many that constitute the totality of the environment sensitive behaviour of materials. To some this is because the complex interactions between a number of parameters, particularly metal composition and structure, electrochemistry and the response of a metal to the application of stress, make the subject of stress corrosion fascinating. To others it is be cause the subject has become increasingly important in practical terms, as the problem of general corrosion has been controlled and the borderline conditions between widespread attack and com plete inactivity are more frequently encountered, and as materials have become more efficiently used by operating at higher stress levels than hitherto. Particularly in advanced engineering systems, such as pressure vessels used in transportation or in the chemical process industries or in the sophisticated equipment used in some of the energy producing industries, the incidence of stress corro sion failure has increased alarmingly in recent times and with consequences that are extremely costly if not worse. The reasons for holding a NATO Advanced Study Institute in this field are therefore obvious, but why publish the proceedings of the Institute in an age where there is, arguably, already a VIII superfluity of published material? Obe obvious answer is that the papers presented constitute valuable reviews of detailed develop ments in recent times.

This book was released on 2022-12-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to provide comprehensive and systematic introduction and summary of corrosion characteristics, mechanisms, and control methods of candidate alloys in sub- and supercritical water environment. First of all, corrosion types of candidate alloys and the effects of major alloying elements on corrosion resistance of potential alloys in sub- and supercritical water are compared and analyzed. At the same time, research status of candidate materials, and development and application trends of several corrosion-resistant alloys are summarized. Then, corrosion characteristics of Ni-Cr, Ni-Cr-Mo, Ni-Fe-Cr and Ni-Fe-Cr-Mo-Cu corrosion-resistant alloys, FeCrAl alloy, and Zircaloy are discussed in detail, including the corrosion rate, the structure and composition of oxide film, and the effects of various surface treatment processes, etc. More specifically, it also investigates corrosion behavior of Ni-based alloy, Fe-Ni-based, and stainless steels in supercritical water. The effects of aggressive species on the corrosion behavior of Ni-base alloys are also explored in supercritical water. Readers will further discover the total corrosion processes and mechanisms of typical candidate alloys in sub- and supercritical water environment. Finally, the work explores the corrosion control methods such as ceramic coatings and passivation processes in supercritical water oxidation and in subcritical water, respectively. Future challenges and development trends of corrosion research of candidate materials in sub- and supercritical water environments are covered at the end of this book. It offers valuable reference for theoretically guiding material selection and design and operating parameter optimization of key equipment in the sub- and supercritical water technologies. The book is written for senior undergraduates, graduate students, scholars, and researchers who are interested in corrosion behavior of candidate materials of supercritical water oxidation system, supercritical water gasification system, and nuclear reactor.
