Environmental Aspects of SCC of High Alloys in Sour Environments

Abstract: The initiation and propagation of stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of high alloys in sour gas environments ware investigated mainly from the viewpoint of cathodic reactions. The most probable cathodic reaction to support the metal dissolution in the pitting and/ or cracking process was identified by means of electrochemical measurements. Among various environmental constituents, the influence of elemental sulfur on the dynamics and kinetics of the cathodic reaction was clarified. The role of elemental sulfur in… Show more

“…In these regions, the alloy could not repassivate and mechanical stress was elevated. [61][62][63] Intergranular cracks found at the bottom of the pits also could act as seeds of SCC. 43 No nickel salts were found in corrosion products inside the cracks.…”

“…Considering that SCC in sour environments initiates at pits, the two boundaries were expected to coincide with each other after a sufficiently long time. 7,15 By substituting transition A (no attack-to-pitting) for transition C (no SCC-to-SCC), transition C also could be predicted by electrochemical techniques.…”

“…7 Then, the E 1 value of this reaction, and approximately E ip of passive alloys, can be calculated using Equation (10). 8 In Equation (10), the pH value can be obtained by the procedure introduced in the previous section, and H 2 S activity can be calculated thermodynamically as: 6 S + 2H + + 2e -= H 2 S (9)…”

“…Cold worked seamless pipes can have yield strengths of more than 1100 MPa. [3,6,14,[33][34][35] The major limitation to the application of these duplex alloys appears to be their susceptibility to sulfide SCC, although they are resistant to chloride-induced SCC. [26,34,36] Nickel-based alloys are a family of alloys in which the principal constituent is nickel although it might be <50% of the total composition.…”
