Abstract:
Under normal conditions, cathodically protected mild steel in seawater is protected by a precipitated film of calcium carbonate and magnesium hydroxide, the so-called calcareous film. This study has attempted to investigate the dynamics of calcareous deposit formation during cathodic protection and the composition of calcareous deposits formed under different applied current densities, and also the role played by the initial current density in forming a good quality calcareous deposit. In addition, an under protection situation can occur where current demand values are under estimated, or where structures are approaching the end of their design lives. In these conditions, a calcareous film might well occur but complete protection is probably not possible. These situations have also been studied. At low insufficient current densities where steel corrosion is still occurring, a clear correlation exists between the iron containing corrosion product and the overlaying magnesium hydroxide layer. Such effects have also been investigated using pH titration analysis, where the effect of co-precipitation of the iron and magnesium oxides/hydroxides has been shown. At higher current densities a layered precipitate has been shown to occur consisting of an inner magnesium containing layer and an outer calcium containing layer. At obvious overprotection current densities, the mechanical stresses involved in hydrogen evolution are assumed to give rise to film cracking. To augment and compliment the study on calcareous calcium/magnesium films formed during cathodic protection, a calcium-magnesium containing pigment has also been investigated in aqueous solutions at open circuit as a possible corrosion inhibitor. Another study looked at the same inhibitor in conjunction with a sacrificial zinc anode. Very effective inhibition has been shown with the film containing not only magnesium, calcium and phosphorous but also zinc. In all the investigations electrochemical methods have been used together with various surface analytical techniques.

Abstract:
This thesis reports on the research outcome of corrosion mechanism and corrosion rate of mild steel in different environments (saline, alkaline solutions and concrete media) using potentiodynamic polarization technique. The study also included the effect of corrosion on bond strength between reinforcing steel and concrete using pull-out test. Corrosion of mild steel and 316L stainless steel with different surface conditions in 1, 3 and 5% saline (NaCl + Distilled water) was investigated. Specimens ground with 200 and 600 grit silicon carbide grinding paper as well as 1μm surface finish (polished with 1μm diamond paste) were tested. In case of mild steel specimens, reduction in surface roughness caused increase in corrosion rate, while in 316L stainless steel corrosion rate decreased as the surface roughness improved. Metallographic examination of corroded specimens confirmed breakdown of passive region due to pitting corrosion. Corrosion of mild steel was also investigated in alkaline solution (saturated calcium hydroxide, pH =12.5) contaminated with 1, 3 and 5% saline. A series of corrosion experiments were also conducted to examine the efficiency of various concentrations of calcium nitrite (CN) on corrosion behaviour of both as-received and polished mild steel in alkaline solution containing 3% saline after 1 hour and 28 days of exposure. Corrosion rate was higher for the as-received than polished mild steel surface under the same testing conditions in NaCl alkaline solution with and without nitrites due to the effect of surface roughness. Morphology investigation of mild steel specimens in alkaline solution ii containing chlorides and nitrites showed localized pits even at nitrite concentration equal to chloride concentration. Corrosion of steel bars embedded in concrete having compressive strengths of 20, 30 and 46MPa was also investigated. The effect of 2 and 4% CN by weight of cement on corrosion behaviour of steel bar in low and high concrete strengths specimens were also studied. All reinforced concrete specimens were immersed in 3% saline solution for three different periods of 1, 7 and 15 days. In order to accelerate the chemical reactions, an external current of 0.4A was applied. Corrosion rate was measured by retrieving electrochemical information from polarization tests. Pull-out tests of reinforced concrete specimens were then conducted to assess the corroded steel/concrete bond characteristics. Experimental results showed that corrosion rate of steel bars and bond strength were dependent on concrete strength, amount of CN and acceleration corrosion period. As concrete strength increased from 20 to 46MPa, corrosion rate of embedded steel decreased. First day of corrosion acceleration showed a slight increase in steel/concrete bond strength, whereas severe corrosion due to 7 and 15 days corrosion acceleration significantly reduced steel/concrete bond strength. Addition of only 2% CN did not give corrosion protection for steel reinforcement in concrete with 20MPa strength at long time of exposure. However, the combination of good quality concrete and addition of CN appear to be a desirable approach to reduce the effect of chloride induced corrosion of steel reinforcement. At less time of exposure, specimens without CN showed higher bond strength in both concrete mixes than those with CN. After 7 days of corrosion acceleration, the higher concentration of CN gave higher bond strength in both concrete mixes. The same trend was observed at 15 days of corrosion acceleration except for the specimen with 20MPa compressive strength and 2% CN which recorded the highest deterioration in bond strength.

Full text
Abstract:
The potential use of sodium propionate as a corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in aqueous media is investigated using a range of electrochemical and surface analytical techniques. The use of sodium propionate for the inhibition of mild steel corrosion is discussed, and the effective pH range of sodium propionate using various buffers is investigated. The effectiveness of sodium propionate as an inhibitor for mild steel pitting corrosion in the presence of various concentrations of CI- is studied. The effect of some oxidants, IO3-, BrO3-, NO32- on the anodic behaviour of mild steel in deaerated 0.01M carboxylate solutions of acetate, propionate, formate, succinate and salicylate is investigated. The critical temperature for effective inhibition of mild steel corrosion with sodium propionate is established, and the chemical composition of the film formed on mild steel surface in sodium propionate solution is studied using surface sensitive Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy FTIR. The efficiency of sodium propionate is compared to that of conventional inhibitors and a mechanism for the inhibition of mild steel corrosion with sodium propionate is proposed.

Abstract:
The aim of the research in this thesis was to study how environmentally friendly corrosion inhibitors for cooling water systems might be developed and used. Firstly, reduced toxicity inorganic corrosion inhibitors (i.e. nitrite/molybdate) were considered. Secondly, non-toxic inhibitors based on mono and di-basic salts of carboxylic acids were studied systematically as a function of carbon chain length. For nitrite inhibitor alone, a concentration of 7 mM NaNO2 was effective to inhibit carbon steel in chloride media of 10 mM NaCl, while 10 mM nitrite was needed in sulphate media of 3.66 mM Na2SO4. However, it was found possible to significantly reduce the concentration of nitrite by adding molybdate in synergy. This was attributed to the nitrite passivation combined with ferrous molybdate salt film pore plugging thus promoting a continuous and protective film on the material within these media. Thus, in pH 6-10 an inhibition efficiency of 97% was recorded with a mixture of 3 mM nitrite/2 mM molybdate in both chloride and sulphate media and at 25°C and 60°C. However as the solution pH decreased below pH 4 the inhibition efficiency decreased to about 47%.In the second part of the study, the use of sodium salts of carboxylic acids with different chain lengths has been investigated. In this part a summary of the performances and limitations of both mono- and di-sodium carboxylate inhibitors are presented. For mono-carboxylates, the inhibition efficiency reached a maximum value of 95% in stagnant aerated solutions at a chain length of C=4 with a critical inhibition concentration of 6 mM in 10 mM NaCl solution. However the inhibition efficiency gradually decreased as the number of carbon atoms in the chain length increased to more than 8, or less than 4, and this was in agreement with surface hydrophobicity and contact angle results. For lower chain lengths, the carboxylate anion becomes more acidic and complexing of the metal ion while for longer chain lengths, the carboxylate anion becomes less soluble and tends to micellise wherby the active groups are no longer available for surface adsorption. For di-carboxylates the inhibition efficiency improved in 10 mM NaCl at a given chain length compared with mono-carboxylates, and continued to increase to C=8 (sebacate), which achieved excellent inhibition efficiency. However, sebacate is costly so a blend with ethyl hexanoate was found to be economically favoured.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis is a contribution to research into erosion-corrosion investigating the rapid wastage of in-bed heat exchanger tubing in fluidized bed combustors. Two main new areas of research were investigated; erosion-corrosion of mild steel in a temperature gradient and erosion-corrosion modelling. It has been suggested that differences between the wastage behaviour measured in fluidized bed combustors and laboratory studies is due to laboratory tests being carried out isothermally (specimen and fluidized bed at the same temperature) whereas, in a FBC boiler, the fluidized bed is considerably hotter than the metal heat exchanger tubing. The fluidized bed test rig was modified to increase the temperature gradient between the specimen and the fluidized bed from initial tests conducted by Rogers (1992b). Tests were carried out over a range of bed temperatures (300-500° C) and cooled specimen surface temperatures (175-500° C) with a maximum temperature difference between the two of 250° C. It was discovered that the temperature of the wear scar during a test was up to 200° C hotter than the temperature at the back of the specimen where the specimen temperature was initially measured in tests by Rogers (1992b). After temperature calibration tests the wastage of the specimens in a temperature gradient were very similar to the wastage of specimens exposed isothermally at the same metal temperature. Short term oxidation experiments were conducted on mild steel to obtain oxidation kinetics for erosion-corrosion modelling. It was found that the initial apparent parabolic rate constant was an order of magnitude larger than at longer time. Erosion studies were conducted with the aim to obtain quantitative data on the particle flux and the erosive behaviour of the bed with temperature. Results were not accurate enough to yield quantitative data but provided an estimate of the particle flux in the fluidized bed test rig. Results obtained from the short term oxidation and erosion studies were used in simple erosion-oxidation models to construct erosion-corrosion regime maps which tended to predict metal erosion to higher temperatures than observed experimentally. Predictions of material wear from the combination of an oxide removal and spalling mechanism predicted sensible wastage rates which agreed with experimental results.

Abstract:
This thesis falls into four fields of study. The first is a survey of relevant literature concerning the many theories of stress corrosion cracking and hydrogen embritt1ement. This includes descriptions of the mechanisms of stress corrosion cracking (SCC) and outlines electromechanical processes and stress - sorption theory. Four widely accepted mechanisms for environment assisted cracking are also outlined. They are, 1) Embritt1ement resulting from accumulated hydrogen at embritt1ement sites, 2) Lowering of surface energy by adsorption of hydrogen, 3) Hydrogen interaction with dislocations, and 4) Lowering of the binding energy by interaction of hydrogen. The literature survey is a significant part of this thesis. The overall objective of the survey is to review a series of current SCC tests on high strength steels. The principal findings from these previous studies are summarized, they provide concrete evidence for the conclusion that SCC of high strength steels is due to hydrogen embrittlement. The second part of the project deals with the development of a stress corrosion loading clevis suitable for testing compact tension specimens. Three existing constant load rigs were developed, and equipment was designed for the successful operation of the rigs. Corrosive environment was applied to the standard compact tension specimen using a novel circulation system based on a magnetic plate stirrer. Corrosive solution (3.5% NaCl) was stirred by the magnetic plate, and the vortex created by the magnetic stirrer was used to create a pumping head. The third area of work dealt with the testing of compact tension specimens of ULTIMO 200 steel using the developed apparatus. The experimental procedures used are based on the application of linear elastic fracture mechanics to stress corrosion cracking. The fourth area of work carried out was to perform slot length calibration experiments on CT specimens by using strain gauges. The results indicated that the specimens pre-cracked in air with a higher dynamic load gave higher threshold stress intensities (KIscc ) than those pre-cracked in air with a lower dynamic load. An electron microscope study indicated evidence of a largely inter granular fatigue crack having occurred in the specimens pre-cracked with a high dynamic load.

Abstract:
An investigation has been performed to determine the pitting resistance of stainless steels and stress corrosion cracking of super duplex stainless steels in water containing chloride ions from 25 - 170°C. The steels studied are 12% Cr, FV520B, FV566, 304L, Uranus65, 2205, Ferallium Alloy 255, and Zeron 100. All these commercial materials used in very significant industrial applications and suffer from pitting and stress corrosion failures. The design of a new experimental setup using an autoclave enabled potentiodynamic polarisation experiments and slow strain rate tests in dilute environments to be conducted at elevated temperatures. The corrosion potentials were controlled using a three electrode cell with computer controlled potentiostat. The experimental programme to determine pitting potentials was designed to simulate the service conditions experienced in most industrial plants and develop mathematical model equations to help a design engineer in material selection decision. Stress corrosion resistance of recently developed Zeron100 was evaluated in dilute environments to propose a mechanism in chloride solutions at high' temperatures useful for the nuclear and power generation industry. Results have shown the significance of the composition of alloying elements across a wide range of stainless steels and its influence on pitting. Nitrogen and molybdenum added to modern duplex stainless steels was found to be unstable at higher temperatures. The fractographic results obtained using the scanning electron microscope (SEM) has given insight in the initiation of pitting in modem duplex and super duplex stainless steels. A mathematical model has been proposed to predict pitting in stainless steels based on the effect of environmental factors (temperature, chloride concentration, and chemical composition). An attempt has been made to identify the mechanism of SCC in Zeron100 super duplex stainless steel. The proposed empirical models have shown good correlation between predicted pitting potential values with experimental results. It has been shown that the SCC mechanism in Zeron100 supports the slip assisted anodic dissolution model of SCC. The relationship between pitting and stress corrosion in dilute environments is established and empirical equations have been proposed to determine the damage region for wide range of stainless steels.

Abstract:
Duplex stainless steel (DSS) is a dual-phase material with approximately equal volume amount of austenite and ferrite. It has both great mechanical properties (good ductility and high tensile/fatigue strength) and excellent corrosion resistance due to the mixture of the two phases. Cyclic loadings with high stress level and low frequency are experienced by many structures. However, the existing study on corrosion fatigue (CF) study of various metallic materials has mainly concentrated on relatively high frequency range. No systematic study has been done to understand the ultra-low frequency (10-5 Hz) cyclic loading effect on stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of DSSs. In this study, the ultra-low frequency cyclic loading effect on SCC of DSS 2205 was studied in acidified sodium chloride and caustic white liquor (WL) solutions. The research work focused on the environmental effect on SCC of DSS 2205, the cyclic stress effect on strain accumulation behavior of DSS 2205, and the combined environmental and cyclic stress effect on the stress corrosion crack initiation of DSS 2205 in the above environments. Potentiodynamic polarization tests were performed to investigate the electrochemical behavior of DSS 2205 in acidic NaCl solution. Series of slow strain rate tests (SSRTs) at different applied potential values were conducted to reveal the optimum applied potential value for SCC to happen. Room temperature static and cyclic creep tests were performed in air to illustrate the strain accumulation effect of cyclic stresses. Test results showed that cyclic loading could enhance strain accumulation in DSS 2205 compared to static loading. Moreover, the strain accumulation behavior of DSS 2205 was found to be controlled by the two phases of DSS 2205 with different crystal structures. The B.C.C. ferrite phase enhanced strain accumulation due to extensive cross-slips of the dislocations, whereas the F.C.C. austenite phase resisted strain accumulation due to cyclic strain hardening. Cyclic SSRTs were performed under the conditions that SCC occurs in sodium chloride and WL solutions. Test results show that cyclic stress facilitated crack initiations in DSS 2205. Stress corrosion cracks initiated from the intermetallic precipitates in acidic chloride environment, and the cracks initiated from austenite phase in WL environment. Cold-working has been found to retard the crack initiations induced by cyclic stresses.

Abstract:
In this work, Slow Strain Rate Test (SSRT) testing, Light Optical Microscopy (LOM) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) were used to study the effect of micro-structure, corrosive environments and cathodic polarisation on stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of two grades of high strength steels, Type A and Type B. Type A is manufactured by quench and tempered (Q&T) method. Type B, a normalize steel was used as reference. This study also supports electrochemical polarisation resistance method as an effective testing technique for measuring the uniform corrosion rate. SSRT samples were chosen from base metal, weld metal and Heat Affected Zone (HAZ). SSRT tests were performed at room temperature under free corrosion potential and cathodic polarisation using 4 mA/cm2 in 1 wt% and 3.5 wt% NaCl solutions. From the obtained corrosion rate measurements performed in 1 wt% and 3.5 wt% NaCl solutions it was observed that increased chloride concentration and dissolved oxygen content enhanced the uniform corrosion for all tested materials. Moreover, the obtained results from SSRT tests demonstrate that both Q&T and normalized steels were not susceptible to SCC in certain strain rate(1×10-6s-1) in 1 wt% and 3.5 wt% NaCl solutions under free corrosion potential. It was con-firmed by a ductile fracture mode and high reduction in area. The weld metal of Type A with acicular ferrite (AF), pro-eutectoid (PF) and bainite microstructure showed higher susceptibility to hydrogen assisted stress corrosion cracking compared to base metal and HAZ. In addition, typical brittle intergranular cracking with small reduction in area was observed on the fracture surface of the Type A due to hydrogen charging.

Abstract:
Today, ethanol, as well as other biofuels, has been increasingly gaining popularity as a major alternative liquid fuel to replace conventional gasoline for road transportation. One of the key challenges for the future use of bioethanol is to increase its availability in the market via an efficient and economic way. However, one major concern in using the existing gas-pipelines to transport fuel-grade ethanol or blended fuel is the potential corrosion and stress corrosion cracking (SCC) susceptibility of carbon steel pipelines in these environments. Both phenomenological and mechanistic investigations have been carried out in order to address the possible degradation phenomena of X-65 pipeline carbon steel in simulated fuel-grade ethanol (SFGE). Firstly, the susceptibilities of stress corrosion cracking of this steel in SFGE were studied. Ethanol chemistry of SFGE was shown to have great impact on the stress corrosion crack initiation/propagation and the corrosion mode transition. Inclusions in the steel can increase local plastic strain and act as crack initiation sites. Secondly, the anodic behavior of carbon steel electrode was investigated in detail under different ethanol chemistry conditions. General corrosion and pitting susceptibility under unstressed condition were found to be sensitive to the ethanol chemistry. Low tendency to passivate and the sensitivity to ethanol chemistry are the major reasons which drive corrosion process in this system. Oxygen plays a critical role in controlling the passivity of carbon steel in ethanol. Thirdly, the detailed study was carried out to understand the SCC mechanism of carbon steel in SFGE. A film related anodic dissolution process was identified to be a major driving force during the crack propagation. Fourthly, more detailed electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) studies using phase angle analysis and transmission line simulation reveal a clearer physical picture of the stress corrosion cracking process in this environment. Fifthly, the cathodic reactions of carbon steel in SFGE were also investigated to understand the oxygen and hydrogen reactions. Hydrogen uptake into the pipeline steel and the conditions of the fractures related to hydrogen embrittlement were identified and studied.

Abstract:
Corrosion and inhibitor protection of mild steel specimens immersed in acid chloride solution was investigated at ambient temperature by gravimetric and potential monitoring methods. The electrode potential monitoring was performed using a digital voltmeter and a saturated calomel electrode (SCE) as the reference electrode. Extracts of kola plant and tobacco in different concentrations were used as ‘green’ inhibitors. This paper reports the results obtained from the weight loss method, calculated corrosion rates and the observed electrochemical response from the electrochemical potential monitoring of the mild steel during the experiments. A reduction in the active corrosion reactions behaviour of the mild steel test specimens in the strong acid chloride was obtained with the addition of different concentrations of the plants extracts. There was a drastic reduction in the weight loss and in the corrosion rate of the test samples. This behaviour was attributed to the protective film provided on the steel’s surface by the complex chemical constituents of the plants extracts. Effective protection of the mild steel was achieved in nearly all the extracts for the greater part of the experimental period. However, the most effective results were obtained from the tobacco extract and also from the extract of kola leaf.

Abstract:
The atmospherically-induced stress corrosion cracking (AISCC) of austenitic stainless steel type AISI 316L was investigated using a U-bend technique, under conditions relevant for storage of intermediate level radioactive waste drums. The specimens were obtained from an actual '500 litre' drum with a wet-bead blasted surface finish. Using MgCI2 as contaminant salt, it was found that at the characteristic equilibrium relative humidity a threshold deposition for AISCC occurrence is found above chloride-ion contamination levels of 10 and 25 µg cm-2 at 50 and 30 °C, respectively. Higher contamination levels were required to produce cracking at room temperature or with the increase of relative humidity to 60 %. The AISCC severity was related to the spatial characteristics of the electrolyte film. Above 100 µg cm-2, crack depth seems to be controlled by the electrolyte thickness as it determines the diffusion path of oxygen to the cathodic surface. Below 100 µg cm-2, crack depth is affected predominantly by the formation of a discontinuous electrolyte film which results in smaller anodic/cathodic domains. Transition from cracking to pitting corrosion with tunnel appearance was observed as test temperature was decreased from 30 °C to room temperature, except at high chloride deposition levels. The results indicate that AISCC occurrence can be limited by restriction of chloride deposition, control of RH away from the deliquescence point of relevant salts and control of temperature. Using an X-ray diffraction technique, it was found that the drum's surface residual stresses are compressive and would provide a degree of protection against AISCC. However, tensile residual stresses can be found in non-blasted areas and in sections of the drum welds. Exposure of corrosion coupons and U-bend specimens III an underground environment that potentially resembles a geological disposal facility did not cause any significant pitting or AISCC after 1.75 years of exposure. This was correlated to a low chloride deposition and a high average RH that would have maintained the hygroscopic deposits in a dilute condition.

Abstract:
Corrosion of mild steel under CO2 conditions is a major issue in the oil and gas industry. This thesis provides novel methodology for in-situ characterization of corrosion inhibitor films at carbon steel and under corrosive conditions. The methodology is validated using existing and newly synthesized corrosion inhibitor compounds. This research will significantly benefit corrosion science as it assists in qualification of corrosion inhibitors and can be used directly for improving corrosion mitigation strategies across industries.
