Book Stress Corrosion Cracking

Download or read book Stress Corrosion Cracking written by V S Raja and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2011-09-22 with total page 817 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problem of stress corrosion cracking (SCC), which causes sudden failure of metals and other materials subjected to stress in corrosive environment(s), has a significant impact on a number of sectors including the oil and gas industries and nuclear power production. Stress corrosion cracking reviews the fundamentals of the phenomenon as well as examining stress corrosion behaviour in specific materials and particular industries.The book is divided into four parts. Part one covers the mechanisms of SCC and hydrogen embrittlement, while the focus of part two is on methods of testing for SCC in metals. Chapters in part three each review the phenomenon with reference to a specific material, with a variety of metals, alloys and composites discussed, including steels, titanium alloys and polymer composites. In part four, the effect of SCC in various industries is examined, with chapters covering subjects such as aerospace engineering, nuclear reactors, utilities and pipelines.With its distinguished editors and international team of contributors, Stress corrosion cracking is an essential reference for engineers and designers working with metals, alloys and polymers, and will be an invaluable tool for any industries in which metallic components are exposed to tension, corrosive environments at ambient and high temperatures. - Examines the mechanisms of stress corrosion cracking (SCC) presenting recognising testing methods and materials resistant to SCC - Assesses the effect of SCC on particular metals featuring steel, stainless steel, nickel-based alloys, magnesium alloys, copper-based alloys and welds in steels - Reviews the monitoring and management of SCC and the affect of SCC in different industries such as petrochemical and aerospace

Book Industrial Experience on the Caustic Cracking of Stainless Steels and Nickel Alloys A Review

Download or read book Industrial Experience on the Caustic Cracking of Stainless Steels and Nickel Alloys A Review written by R. B. Rebak and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Caustic environments are present in several industries, from nuclear power generation to the fabrication of alkalis and alumina. The most common material of construction is carbon steel but its application is limited to a maximum temperature of approximately 80 C. The use of Nickel (Ni) alloys is recommended at higher temperatures. Commercially pure Ni is the most resistant material for caustic applications both from the general corrosion and the stress corrosion cracking (SCC) perspectives. Nickel rich alloys also offer a good performance. The most important alloying elements are Ni and chromium (Cr). Molybdenum (Mo) is not a beneficial alloying element and it dissolves preferentially from the alloy in presence of caustic environments. Austenitic stainless steels such as type 304 and 316 seem less resistant to caustic conditions than even plain carbon steel. Experimental evidence shows that the most likely mechanism for SCC is anodic dissolution.

Book Exploring De alloying in Iron Nickel Chromium Alloys and Its Relationship to Stress Corrosion Cracking in Nuclear High Temperature Water Environments

Download or read book Exploring De alloying in Iron Nickel Chromium Alloys and Its Relationship to Stress Corrosion Cracking in Nuclear High Temperature Water Environments written by Zoe Lewis Coull and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most stress corrosion cracking (SCC) mechanisms initiate from localised corrosion (pitting, intergranular attack, de-alloying), which provides local stress concentration. Alloys are generally more susceptible to SCC than pure metals because selective dissolution or oxidation is possible. De-alloying involves the selective dissolution of the less noble (LN) component from an alloy. The more noble (MN) component enriches on the surface forming a brittle, metallic, nanoporous layer. In noble metal alloys and brass, SCC shows correlation with the threshold LN content below which de-alloying stops (the parting limit).In Fe-Ni-Cr engineering alloys de-alloying may be responsible for Cl-SCC, although this has not been proven explicitly. Initial indications show that de-alloying causes SCC in hot, caustic environments. In some cases, Ni enrichment and porosity are associated with cracks in stainless steel after long-term service in nuclear high temperature water environments, but it is unclear if this plays a causal role in cracking.Recently, it has been shown that SCC in noble element alloys depends on the mechanical integrity (quality) of the de-alloyed layer; a finding that was reflected here. At 140 °C at OCP the layer on 310SS was too thin to promote SCC and Alloy 800 did not de-alloy significantly. Layers formed with anodic potential did not result in SCC. In 50% NaOH at 280 °C, severely stressed 310SS cracked where thick de-alloyed layers formed. However, the thin layer formed on Alloy 800 was associated with SCC, even with low residual stress.Here the de-alloying mechanism (primarily the effect of Ni (MN) content) and its relationship to SCC in Fe-Ni-Cr materials (Fe10Ni, 310SS and Alloy 800) is examined using a hot caustic environment, and compared to classical de-alloying systems.De-alloyed layers formed on all materials, although Alloy 800 required a higher temperature. Increasing Ni content improved de-alloying resistance according to classical theory. Unlike classical systems, de-alloying occurred with concurrent MN dissolution and, at open circuit potential (OCP), the layers retained significant Fe and Cr (LN) instead of being 'almost pure' MN. Layers formed with applied anodic potential were friable and highly LN depleted. This behaviour was successfully modelled in Kinetic Monte Carlo simulations.

Book Environmental Cracking of Corrosion Resistant Alloys in the Chemical Process Industry A Review

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.
