On the Sea Water Corrosion Resistance of Alloy 825 CTP (UNS N08827), an Improved Version of Alloy 825 (UNS N08825)

UNS(1) N08827, commercially called Alloy 825 CTP(2), represents a significant advancement of UNS N08825 (Alloy 825)(2) by virtue of its tailored chemical composition, resulting in enhanced localized corrosion resistance. The key modification in UNS N08827 involves a notable augmentation in molybdenum content, which has been raised to approximately 6%, twice the amount found in the conventional UNS N08825, which contains 3% molybdenum. Consequently, this alloy surpasses a critical threshold for the pitting resistance equivalent number (PREN) by exceeding 40, a prerequisite for specific applications within the oil and gas sector. Prior investigations have already demonstrated the heightened resistance of UNS N08827 to pitting and crevice corrosion when exposed to ferric chloride solutions, as evidenced by ASTM(3) G48 C and D tests. Building upon this foundation, the subsequent objective was to assess the corrosion performance of this alloy in an artificial seawater environment. This research paper presents the outcomes obtained from subjecting Alloy 825 CTP UNS N08827 to ASTM G61 and ASTM G150 tests, focusing on its corrosion behavior.
