Stress Corrosion Cracking of an Austenitic Stainless Steel in Nitrite-Containing Chloride Solutions.

ABSTRACT: This article describes the susceptibility of 316L stainless steel to stress corrosion cracking (SCC) in a nitrite-containing chloride solution. Slow strain rate testing (SSRT) in 30 wt. % MgCl₂ solution established SCC susceptibility, as evidenced by post-SSRT fractography. Addition of nitrite to the chloride solution, which is reported to have inhibitive influence on corrosion of stainless steels, was found to increase SCC susceptibility. The susceptibility was also found to increase with nitrite concentration. This behaviour is explained on the basis of the passivation and pitting characteristics of 316L steel in chloride solution.

Crystallographic orientation data from chloride-induced stress corrosion crack (CISCC) paths in gas tungsten arc welded (GTAW) austenitic stainless steel 304L.

Project description:This Data in Brief article presents crystallographic data collected along chloride-induced stress corrosion cracks (CISCC) in a gas tungsten arc welded (GTAW) austenitic stainless steel (AuSS) 304L. The experimental setup involved a welded stainless steel 304L coupon of dimensions 105 mm × 18.5 mm × 3 mm, loaded in a 4-point bending fixture with a maximum tensile stress of 380 MPa. The fixtured specimen was immersed in boiling magnesium chloride (MgCl2) solution until a through-crack was observed on the specimen surface after 17 hours of boiling. The cross-section was subsequently polished, and 37 cracks of interest in the heat affected zone (HAZ) and weld zone (WZ) were selected for crystallographic characterization. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) based electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) was used to map the grain orientations along and surrounding each crack path. The obtained orientation imaging microscopy (OIM) datasets were post-processed using EDAX OIM V8 proprietary software to generate inverse pole figures (IPF), image quality (IQ) figures, detector signal (SEM) images, and to determine the Taylor factor and Schmid factor of mapped grains. This dataset can be used to understand CISCC crack initiation, propagation, and termination behaviors, as has been reported in the accompanying original research article. This data article providing the raw EBSD OIM datasets and processed images formatted for accessibility in future studies. This comprehensive EBSD dataset can further be used to extract grain boundary misorientation information; benchmark comparative studies of SCC/CISCC in AuSS and other Fe or Ni alloys; and provide critical validation data on grain morphology, misorientation, and crystallography for GTAW and CISCC models.

Quantitative 3D Characterization for Kinetics of Corrosion Initiation and Propagation in Additively Manufactured Austenitic Stainless Steel.

Project description:In situ X-ray computed tomography (X-ray CT) is used to investigate the effects of characteristic microstructural features on the pitting initiation and propagation in austenitic stainless steel specimens prepared with laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) additive manufacturing. In situ X-ray CT in probing the mechanism and kinetics of localized corrosion is demonstrated by immersing two LPBF specimens with different porosities in an aggressive ferric chloride solution for the evaluation of corrosion. X-ray CT images are acquired from the specimens after every 8 hours of immersion over an extended period of time (216 hours). Corrosion pit growth is then quantitatively analyzed with a data-constrained modeling method. The pitting growth mechanism of LPBF stainless steel is found to be different from that of conventional stainless steels. More specifically, the mechanism of corrosion pit initiation is closely correlated with the original lack of fusion porosity (LOF) distribution on the surface of the specimens and preferential pit propagation through the LOF pores inside the specimens. Pit growth kinetics are derived from pit volume changes determined through 3D data analysis. The pit growth kinetics in LPBF specimens are found to vary in the initial pit formation, competitive pit propagation, and the dominant pit growth stages.

Non-oxide precipitates in additively manufactured austenitic stainless steel.

Project description:Precipitates in an austenitic stainless steel fabricated via any Additive Manufacturing (AM), or 3D printing, technique have been widely reported to be only Mn-Si-rich oxides. However, via Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) studies on a 316L stainless steel, we show that non-oxide precipitates (intermetallics, sulfides, phosphides and carbides) can also form when the steel is fabricated via Laser Metal Deposition (LMD)-a directed energy deposition-type AM technique. An investigation into their origin is conducted with support from precipitation kinetics and finite element heat transfer simulations. It reveals that non-oxide precipitates form during solidification/cooling at temperatures ≥ 0.75Tm (melting point) and temperature rates ≤ 105 K/s, which is the upper end of the maximum rates encountered during LMD but lower than those encountered during Selective Laser Melting (SLM)-a powder-bed type AM technique. Consequently, non-oxide precipitates should form during LMD, as reported in this work, but not during SLM, in consistency with existing literature.

Development and optimization of trivalent chromium electrodeposit on 304L stainless steel to improve corrosion resistance in chloride-containing environment.

Project description:In this study, we developed and optimized a trivalent chromium coating electrodeposited on 304L stainless steel (SS) from a Cr-trivalent bath. The results reveal that the Cr coatings at all bath temperatures except for 80 °C showed clusters of polyhedral grains, however, the grain sizes decreased with an increase in bath temperature. Also, the coatings deposited at bath temperatures of 30, 50, and 60 °C experienced networks of cracks, which decreased in population density as temperature increased. However, the coatings deposited at bath temperatures of 70 and 80 °C were crack-free due to surface modification, confirmed by 3D profile results with an advanced power spectral density and a multi-Gaussian histogram analysis. The mechanical test results demonstrate that the adhesion and wear resistance of the Cr-coatings formed on the SS substrate significantly improved, with the optimal coefficient of friction of 0.18. Likewise, electrochemical behavior observations of the Cr coatings show that pitting resistance improved with the increase in bath temperature conditions, as shown in the pitting potential values which increased from 272.6 mV to 436.2 mV as bath temperature increases from 30 °C to 80 °C. From this study, it is proposed that the Cr-coatings deposited at a bath temperature of 80 °C presents the optimal coating performance concerning a combination of all the target qualities aimed, such as better tribological behavior and improved pitting resistance. Thus, enabling the establishment of an innovative method to overcome the conventional issues encountered in Cr electrodeposition of SSs.

Hot tensile properties and constant load stress corrosion cracking test data of autogenous weld joints of super 304HCu stainless steel in boiling MgCl2 solution.

Project description:Hot tensile test data of Gas Tungsten Arc Welded (GTAW) autogenous joints of Super 304HCu tubes tested at their operating temperature are presented along with the microstructure of the weld joint. The GTAW joints exhibited lower tensile strength than the parent metal and the failure occurred in the weld metal region for all test temperatures. Constant load Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC) test data of the GTAW weld joints tested in boiling MgCl2 environment at different applied stress level are presented. SCC curves obtained from the test were analyzed to derive SCC parameters such as rate of steady state elongation, the time required for set-in of tertiary region, and time to complete fracture. The fracture surfaces of SCC samples were examined using Scanning Electron Microscope to reveal the mode of fracture. Super 304HCu stainless steel being used as construction material for super heaters and reheaters of advanced ultra super critical boilers, this data will be an addition to the design data available for material selection in design of power plants.

Superior radiation-resistant nanoengineered austenitic 304L stainless steel for applications in extreme radiation environments.

Project description:Nuclear energy provides more than 10% of electrical power internationally, and the increasing engagement of nuclear energy is essential to meet the rapid worldwide increase in energy demand. A paramount challenge in the development of advanced nuclear reactors is the discovery of advanced structural materials that can endure extreme environments, such as severe neutron irradiation damage at high temperatures. It has been known for decades that high dose radiation can introduce significant void swelling accompanied by precipitation in austenitic stainless steel (SS). Here we report, however, that through nanoengineering, ultra-fine grained (UFG) 304 L SS with an average grain size of ~100 nm, can withstand Fe ion irradiation at 500 °C to 80 displacements-per-atom (dpa) with moderate grain coarsening. Compared to coarse grained (CG) counterparts, swelling resistance of UFG SS is improved by nearly an order of magnitude and swelling rate is reduced by a factor of 5. M(23)C(6) precipitates, abundant in irradiated CG SS, are largely absent in UFG SS. This study provides a nanoengineering approach to design and discover radiation tolerant metallic materials for applications in extreme radiation environments.

Evaluation of the thermal aging of ?-ferrite in austenitic stainless steel welds by electrochemical analysis.

Project description:Cr-segregation by spinodal decomposition and G-phase precipitation were observed in ?-ferrite of austenitic stainless steel welds thermally aged at 400 °C for up to 20,000?h. A reversion heat treatment (R-HT) at 550 °C for 1?h dissolved the Cr-segregation in the aged welds while some intermetallic precipitates were present. The double-loop electrochemical potentiokinetic reactivation (DL-EPR) analysis showed no significant differences among them. However, after selective etching of the austenite phase, the DL-EPR values of ?-ferrite phase steadily increased with aging time due to the growth of Cr-depleted regions by spinodal decomposition. The electrochemical behavior of ?-ferrite after R-HT condition was similar to that of unaged welds, indicating the intermetallic precipitates did not affect the corrosion resistance in this case. Overall, DL-EPR analysis of ?-ferrite phase provided better correlation with spinodal decomposition.

Corrosion behavior of metastable AISI 321 austenitic stainless steel: Investigating the effect of grain size and prior plastic deformation on its degradation pattern in saline media.

Project description:The role of grain size and strain rate on the corrosion behavior of plastically-deformed Ti-stabilized austenitic stainless steel (AISI 321) in saline media was investigated. The as-received coarse-grained alloy (CG: ~37 µm) was subjected to thermomechanical processing to develop fine (FG: ~3 µm) and ultrafine (UFG: ~0.24 µm) grained structures. These samples were deformed under high (dynamic) and low (quasi-static) strain-rate conditions to a similar true strain of ~0.86. Microstructural analyses on specimens after deformation prior to corrosion study suggests a shift from the estimated stacking fault energy value of the steel. Electrochemical tests confirm the highest corrosion resistance for UFG specimens due to the formation of the most stable adsorbed passive film. This is followed by FG and CG specimens in that order. For the three grain sizes, the corrosion resistance of specimen deformed under quasi-static loading condition is higher than that subjected to dynamic impact loading while the corrosion resistance of undeformed samples is the least. This work also confirms the non-detrimental effect of TiCs in AISI 321 austenitic stainless steel on its corrosion resistance. However, TiNs were observed to be detrimental by promoting pitting corrosion due to galvanic coupling of TiNs with their surrounding continuous phase. The mechanism of pitting in AISI 321 in chloride solution is proposed.

Measurements and predictions of diffusible hydrogen escape and absorption in catholically charged 316LN austenitic stainless steel.

Project description:Hydrogen can have an impact on the service life of safety critical components, such as coolant pipes in nuclear reactors, where it may interact with other factors including irradiation. Hence, it is important to characterise such behaviour which in turn requires the capability to charge representative material specimens with hydrogen and to quantity the levels of hydrogen present. Hydrogen concentrations resulting from cathodic charging of 316LN stainless steel over short time periods (< 2 h) were estimated from hydrogen release rates obtained from potentiostatic discharge measurements and used to calibrate simulations based on Fick's second law of diffusion in order to predict the hydrogen concentration after 24 h of charging. Leave-one-out cross-validation was used to establish confidence in results which were also validated using measurements from the melt extraction technique. The success of Fick's second law for estimating escape rates showed that a majority of the absorbed hydrogen was diffusible rather than trapped. These results confirmed that the potentiostatic discharge technique can be used on materials with low diffusivity, and provide a new method through which hydrogen concentrations within a sample can be estimated after cathodic charging non-destructively without the need to remove samples from solution.

The Corrosion Behavior of X100 Pipeline Steel in a Sodium Chloride Solution Containing Magnesium and Calcium.

Project description:The influences of Mg2+ and Ca2+ on the short-term (1800 s) corrosion behavior of X100 pipeline steel were investigated in a sodium chloride (NaCl) solution saturated with CO2. Either Ca2+ or Mg2+ in the solution inhibited the short-term corrosion of X100 pipeline steel, with the corrosion current density decreasing from 262.4 μA cm-2 to 163.5 μA cm-2 or 80.8 μA cm-2. During longer-term (8-48 h) immersion, the Mg2+ inhibited the formation of the protective scale, whereas the Ca2+ accelerated the formation of the scale. Further, an experimental equation establishing the relationship between the precipitation rate of the corrosion scale and the exposure time was proposed to quantitatively study the effects of Mg2+ and Ca2+ on the precipitation rate of the corrosion scale.
