Modeling Stress Corrosion Cracking With Explicit 3D Grain Microstructure

Product Number: ED22-17160-SG
Author: Benjamin S Anglin, Thomas W Web
Publication Date: 2022
$20.00

Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of Type 304 stainless steel (304 SS) in elevated temperature (288 °C) high purity water is typically an intergranular (IG) process with cracks propagating along grain boundaries, which are mesoscopic entities relevant on the grain scale. It follows then that the nature of the grain boundaries plays a significant role in SCC. In fact, for IG SCC to occur three things must be present: 1) stress; 2) a corrosive environment; and 3) susceptible grain boundaries. SCC growth rate (SCCGR) equations for 304SS in high temperature, high purity water, test orientation, temperature, material composition, and sensitization.

Coating Failures on Painted Galvanized Mast Arms

Product Number: 41208-402-SG
Author: Paul Vinik, Richard A. Burgess
Publication Date: 2008
$20.00

Galvanized mast arms support uncounted numbers of traffic signals and signage throughout the United States. The proportion of these that have a “duplex” coating system (both galvanizing and organic coatings) is unknown. However, the number is surely significant, and the number of coating system failures is also significant.

Safe and stable operation of the process plant through its life cycle is an ultimate target of any integrity management system. Over the last decades, a number of possible ways and systems for managing plant integrity were described and implemented.1-4 A common path for all those efforts was to control and manage corrosion processes in a more-or-less systematic way by applying certain measures (monitoring techniques, material selection guidelines, operating procedures etc.) and performance indicators (remaining time-to-failure, inhibitor usage etc.). An effective corrosion and integrity management system, in theory, should be capable to “uncover” excessive corrosion incidents before serious damage occurs. Unfortunately, unexpected corrosion-related failures are still occurring in the petroleum industry.5 This situation stems predominantly from relatively poor data organization and management, leaving corrosion and key process information spread and hidden across different refinery functions and systems.

The drive to embellish and beautify our surroundings is a human motivation that bridges both culture and time. From vases to vaulted ceilings, across the globe we captivate ourselves with ornament, decorating the objects that we create, the homes we live in and the spaces in which we work and worship. Examples of decorative painting can be found from the earliest moments of man’s existence and have evolved throughout history in synchronicity with our life styles; expressing our tastes, our status, our standards and values.

Coal Tar Enamel Service Life Extension

Product Number: 41215-931-SG
Author: Allen Skaja, Bobbi Jo Merten, David Tordonato
Publication Date: 2015
$20.00

Coal tar enamel provides an extremely long service life, under the right conditions. The Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) has observed more than 80 years of corrosion protection at facilities such as Hoover Dam. The coal tar enamel linings in penstocks and outlet works that are buried, encased, or in tunnels maintain excellent condition with minor damage. However, when temperature fluctuates between hot and cold, the enamel is stressed and develops alligator cracking.

Strontium Effect on Sulfate Scale Precipitation: Kinetics and Inhibition

Product Number: 51320-14608-SG

The multicomponents of the produced water often results in the formation of the solid solution, such as BaxSr1-xSO4. The suspended solids collected from industry often show the presence of Sr2+ in the BaSO4 scale, indicating the formation of BaxSr1-xSO4 solid solution. Thus, it is important to study the solubility, kinetics and inhibition of the solid solution to have a better prediction of the sulfate scale deposition rate and amount.
In this research, we will mainly focus on the effect of the incorporation of Sr2+ on the deposition rate of BaxSr1-xSO4 solid solution scale. The flow through system with two different reactors was used in the experiments. From the experimental results, we can find that the deposition rate of the BaxSr1-xSO4 solid solution decreased significantly with the increase of strontium concentration at a constant barium sulfate supersaturation. The deposition rate decreased up to six times when strontium concentration in aqueous phase increased from [Sr2+] = 0.5[Ba2+] to [Sr2+] = 8[Ba2+], all with SIBarite = 0.9. The decrease of the SI of the BaxSr1-xSO4 solid solution was found with the increase of Sr2+ in the aqueous phase. This might be the reason for the retardation of Sr2+ on BaxSr1-xSO4 deposition rate.

This paper will examine the formulation and performance of new, activated zinc epoxy primers compared to conventional zinc-rich epoxy primers. We will demonstrate comparable corrosion resistance at reduced zinc levels in the dried film (Level 3 ≥65%) and show that zinc metal levels can be reduced to as low as 31% by weight without compromising galvanic corrosion protection while improving adhesion and mechanical properties of the dry film.

When a metal or metal alloy is immersed in an electrolyte made of a conducting material of sufficient oxidizing power, such as moist soil, it will corrode according to a well-defined electrochemical mechanism. dc corrosion is a result of dissolution of material due to oxidizing reactions, liberating electrons and forming positive ions transported into the electrolyte, leading to material loss. The current-potential relationship governing this electrochemical process termed polarization, is non-linear. This relationship is often represented by a polarization curve, which is typically, an experimentally determined function. There are a number of parameters that can contribute to the final characteristics of the polarization curve within a system ranging from material parameters (e.g. material, geometry) to environmental factors (e.g. composition of the electrolyte).

Water Treatment Dosage Control and Relationship to Performance

Product Number: 51395-95260-SG
Author: J.E. Hoots
Publication Date: 1995
$20.00

New methods for monitoring scale and corrosion inhibiting water treatment programs have been developed. These new patented methods utilize the measurement of system consumption of actives in the treatment program by fluorescence analysis.'-' The applied dosage of treatment program and the amount of actives available to the system are measured with inert fluorescent tracers added to the treatments.

System consumption of actives is defined as the difference between the amount of actives added and remaining in the system. 2,5- 7 Consumption measurements determine changes in the whole operating system (not a simulated, small portion of the system). Consumption measurements can also be made on individual portions of the system (heat exchangers). Changes in consumption of inhibitors and dispersants can .be related to changes in system operating conditions and performance. Reducing consumption of actives or maintaining consumption within a specified range can be related to optimization of the operation of the cooling system and treatment program.
