Atom probe tomography (APT) is a promising tool to measure the atomic-scale distribution of hydrogen in solid matter for the assessment of hydrogen embrittlement susceptibility of materials. However, the accuracy of such measurements resulting from ambient charging and transfer experiments needs to be established. In this work, APT quantification of hydrogen (H) and deuterium (D) in a typical X65 pipeline steel has been determined after ambient charging and transfer to ascertain the contribution of artifacts to the measured H/D signal. A series of experimental workflows related to sample preparation (electropolishing, focussed ion beam) and electrochemical charging conditions (different electrolytes and charging potentials) were explored for H/D measurement using APT. The results show that APT can be used to measure charged H/D with statistical confidence after ambient charging and transfer, that hydrogen ingress occurs during electropolishing, and using a more negative charging potential will introduce more H/D into the material.

Corrosion behavior of cast Al-Cu-Mn-Zr (ACMZ) and RR350 alloys was compared to a cast 319 alloy in 3.5 wt.% NaCl. After 168 h immersion, ACMZ and RR350 alloys suffered from preferential attack adjacent to intermetallic particles decorated at grain boundaries while the attack in 319 occurred in eutectic Al-Si dendritic boundaries. Electrochemical data allowed semiquantitative comparison of alloy resistance to corrosion initiation, and ACMZ type alloys, including RR350 and three alloys with higher Cu, were considered more resistant than 319 due to the absence of deleterious Si particles. In case of 319, such Si particles presumably drove higher micro-galvanic influence to initiate and sustain Al corrosion. With lower susceptibility to corrosion initiation, ACMZ alloys should exhibit higher or at minimum similar resistance compared to cast 319.

This study analyzes the delamination behavior of adhesive joints after exposure to a saline environment for zero, one, and twelve weeks. Delamination was assessed under static and fatigue loading conditions in fracture Modes I and II, with a detailed analysis of fracture surfaces using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Backscattered Electron (BSE) detection. The 3D images reveal significant morphological differences in fracture surfaces, showing variations in fatigue lines and the presence of impurities depending on the fracture mode. A probabilistic fatigue life analysis was performed using a Weibull regression model, showing notable changes, especially in Mode I at a high number of cycles. A chemical analysis using EDX and FTIR-ATR complemented the mechanical study, revealing an increase in sodium and chlorine concentrations with prolonged saline exposure. Oxidative degradation was also observed, with carbonyl groups increasing significantly over time, particularly in areas most exposed to the saline mist.

We introduce an experimental setup to chemically image corrosion processes at metal-electrolyte interfaces under stagnant, confined conditions—relevant in a wide range of situations. The setup is based on a glass capillary, in which precipitation of corrosion products in the interfacial aqueous phase can be monitored over time with optical microscopy, and chemically and structurally characterized with microscopic synchrotron-based techniques (X-ray fluorescence, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray absorption spectroscopy). Moreover, quantification of precipitates through X-ray transmission measurements provides in-situ corrosion rates. We illustrate this setup for iron corrosion in a pH 8 electrolyte, revealing the critical role of O2 and iron diffusion in governing the precipitation of ferrihydrite and its transformation to goethite. Corrosion and coupled reactive transport processes can thus be monitored and fundamentally investigated at the metal-electrolyte interface, with micrometer-scale resolution. This capillary setup has potential applications for in-situ corrosion studies of various metals and environments.

During structural alloy development, the initial microstructure design is mainly considered in the context of achieving a balance of mechanical properties, with corrosion resistance often considered much later in the process. This perspective uses illustrations from degradation mechanisms in 3D-printed alloys and in-service microstructure evolution-driven mechanisms to show the importance of microstructure design for corrosion resistance and mechanical properties simultaneously, to improve the reliability of critical infrastructure.

This study investigated the corrosion and oxidation mechanism of the Cr-free Fe-40Ni-15Co superalloy with exposure to a tropical marine atmosphere for one year and a subsequent high temperature of 650 °C for 300 h. The degradation behavior of the samples was evaluated based on surface characterization and analysis. In the tropical marine atmospheres, the corrosion process of the Fe-40Ni-15Co superalloy presented an initial localized type after one month of exposure and gradually developed into uniform. The corrosion products were mainly comprised of Fe2O3 and NiO, suppressing the pitting process. During the high-temperature oxidation process, all samples presented super-parabolic oxidation kinetics. Except for the initial active oxidation due to salt deposits, the corrosion products after atmospheric exposure could significantly enhance the oxidation resistance at 650 °C. An explanation for the degradation mechanism of the Fe-40Ni-15Co superalloy was developed based on the synergistic effects of atmospheric corrosion and high-temperature oxidation.

The rapid failure of organic coatings in deep-sea environments complicates accurate lifetime prediction. Given the rapid cracking characteristic on the coating surface in this environment, a comprehensive “performance-structure” failure model was established. Initially, a targeted image recognition approach containing convolutional neural network (CNN) and post-processing was constructed for the crack area detection. An overall precision of 82.81% demonstrated the network’s good accuracy. The length distribution and the statistical evolution of cracks were extracted from SEM images to obtain the kinetic equation of the cracks related to coating structure degradation. In addition, the kinetics of water diffusion and coating adhesion were examined, as they represent critical parameters of coating performance. Based on this achievement, a failure model incorporating three dominant factors was integrated by the gray relational analysis method. The average prediction error of the model was 2.60%, which lays the groundwork for developing image-based methods to predict coating life.

Corrosion fatigue (CF) crack growth is quantified as a function of relative humidity (RH) using AA7085-T7451 samples with NaCl deposited to understand the effect of deliquesced surface electrolyte droplets on CF performance when humidity varies. Fracture mechanics testing holding mechanical driving forces for cracking constant and incrementally increasing humidity show that crack growth rate (da/dN) more than doubles once RH moves above 78–80% RH. When decreasing RH, some amount of drying below the efflorescence RH (ERH) and/or a sufficient time is needed to pass in order for da/dN to return to that expected for a dry crack tip. All in all, this study establishes time of crack tip wetness as an important parameter for predicting fatigue lifetimes in atmospheric conditions, a parameter that cannot be solely predicted by RH, as accelerated cracking can continue for a limited amount of time even when RH is brought below the ERH.

This research investigates a specific type of irregularly shaped inclusions in steel, which are typically considered detrimental. A comparative study of two steels, treated with different inclusion modification methods by oxide metallurgy technology, reveals that spherical inclusions with complex structures can provide beneficial multipoint trap sites for hydrogen, thereby reducing the risk of hydrogen-induced cracking (HIC). Notably, irregular stripe-shaped silicate-oxide inclusions with sharp tips, due to their hot-soft characteristics during the process of hot-rolling, do not exacerbate cracks but instead mitigate local stresses. Conversely, large single-phase hard inclusions are detrimental to HIC resistance. This investigation provides insights into the mechanisms behind why certain irregular inclusions do not trigger HIC crack after the NACE TM 0284-2016 standard test.
这项研究调查了钢中一种特殊的不规则夹杂物,这种夹杂物通常被认为是有害的。通过对采用氧化物冶金技术的不同夹杂物改性方法处理的两种钢材进行比较研究,发现具有复杂结构的球形夹杂物可以为氢提供有益的多点捕集点,从而降低氢致开裂(HIC)的风险。值得注意的是,具有尖锐尖端的不规则条纹状氧化硅夹杂物由于在热轧过程中具有热软特性,不仅不会加剧裂纹,反而会减轻局部应力。相反,大的单相硬夹杂物不利于抗 HIC 性能。这项调查有助于深入了解某些不规则夹杂物在经过 NACE TM 0284-2016 标准测试后不会引发 HIC 裂纹的机制。

This investigation provides insights into the mechanisms behind why certain irregular inclusions do not trigger HIC crack after the NACE TM 0284-2016 standard test.","PeriodicalId":19270,"journal":{"name":"npj Materials Degradation","volume":" ","pages":"1-15"},"PeriodicalIF":6.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.nature.com/articles/s41529-024-00525-y.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142574201","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
