Abstract
The corrosion behavior of 3Cr steel and HP-13Cr stainless steel (SS) under high temperature and CO2 or H2S pressure environments was investigated by immersion tests and multiple characterizations of corrosion films, and analyzed by combining the Pourbaix diagram and kinetic calculations. At 180 °C/3.8 MPa CO2, both 3Cr steel and HP-13Cr SS exhibited double-layered corrosion films, comprising a crystalline FeCO3 outer layer and an inner Cr2O3 and Cr(OH)3 layer. Furthermore, at 180 °C/3.8 MPa H2S, the corrosion films of both steels consist of an outer crystalline pyrrhotite and pyrite layer and an inner Cr2O3 and Cr(OH)3 layer. The corrosion resistance of 3Cr in H2S is inferior to that of HP-13Cr SS due to the influence of stress corrosion cracking but is close to that of HP-13Cr SS in CO2. Therefore, 3Cr steel could be considered a cost-effective alternative to HP-13Cr SS in CO2 environments.
期刊介绍:
CORROSION is the premier research journal featuring peer-reviewed technical articles from the world’s top researchers and provides a permanent record of progress in the science and technology of corrosion prevention and control. The scope of the journal includes the latest developments in areas of corrosion metallurgy, mechanisms, predictors, cracking (sulfide stress, stress corrosion, hydrogen-induced), passivation, and CO2 corrosion.
70+ years and over 7,100 peer-reviewed articles with advances in corrosion science and engineering have been published in CORROSION. The journal publishes seven article types – original articles, invited critical reviews, technical notes, corrosion communications fast-tracked for rapid publication, special research topic issues, research letters of yearly annual conference student poster sessions, and scientific investigations of field corrosion processes. CORROSION, the Journal of Science and Engineering, serves as an important communication platform for academics, researchers, technical libraries, and universities.
Articles considered for CORROSION should have significant permanent value and should accomplish at least one of the following objectives:
• Contribute awareness of corrosion phenomena,
• Advance understanding of fundamental process, and/or
• Further the knowledge of techniques and practices used to reduce corrosion.
