T1 - Case studies N2 - In this paper, some quite different survey tasks are described, and it can be seen that corrosion surveys will follow a certain scheme of data acquisition (first NDT measurements, than detailed testing on suspect areas), but the individual scope of on-site measurements may have a vast variety according to the local circumstances, and the interpretation always has to refer to a wider set of information than the data readings only.

Starting with a recent failure case, a broken axle of a German high speed train, a discussion is presented on issues of both safety levels. These include ideas for finite life design, the treatment of in-service effects on the fatigue strength due to flying ballast damage and corrosion pits, the effect of corrosion on fatigue crack initiation and propagation, potential effects of non-metallic inclusions in steels, the way to detect them by quality control measures and reliability aspects of non-destructive testing with respect to the detection of fatigue cracks. Proposals are made how the safety level could be further improved.

The lifetime reduction of (X46Cr13, AISI 420C) is demonstrated in in-situ-laboratory experiments (T=60 °C, geothermal brine: Stuttgart Aquifer flow rate: 9 Nl/h, CO2). S-N plots, micrographic-, phase-, fractographic- and surface analysis were applied to obtain sustainable information on the corrosion fatigue behavior. Maximum number of cycles (here 12.5 x 106 cycles to failure) is reached at σa =173 MPa. No typical fatigue strength exists and passive corrosion fatigue is most likely failure cause.

Mittemeijer, T1 - Qualitätsbewertung von Schneidwaren durch Kurzzeit-Korrosionsprüfung N2 - Bei der Qualitätsbewertung von Schneidwaren aus nichtrostenden martensitischen Chrom-Stählen stellt die Überprüfung der Korrosionsbeständigkeit ein wichtiges Kriterium dar. Allgemein üblich sind Wechseltauchversuche mit relativ hohem zeitlichem und auswertungsbedingtem Aufwand, die noch dazu zerstörend sind und teilweise fragwürdige Ergebnisse liefern. In den letzten Jahren wurden neue Ansatze der Prüfung geschaffen, die eine nahezu zerstörungsfreie Kurzzeit-Korrosionsprüfung erlauben. Es wird gezeigt, dass mit dem elektrochemischen Rauschen sehr empfindlich Einflüsse des Härtens und der Oberflächenbehandlung auf die Korrosionsbeständigkeit nachgewiesen werden können, wodurch eine schnelle und objektive Qualitätsbewertung innerhalb des Fertigungsprozesses und der Endkontrolle von Produkten möglich ist. Das für die Prüfmethodik ausgenutzte Phänomen des elektrochemischen Rauschens zielt darauf ab, den Beginn der Korrosion empfindlich und schnell zu detektieren, ohne die Prüfbedingungen maßlos zu verschärfen und Produkte damit zu zerstören. Neben der Funktionalität der Prüfung stehen aber auch die Anwenderfreundlichkeit und somit die Akzeptanz bei den Herstellern im Vordergrund. Aus diesem Grund wurde zusätzlich ein Indikatortest (KorroPad) als praxistaugliche Alternative zum elektrochemischen Rauschen angewendet. Die Ergebnisse zeigen eine gute Übereinstimmung beider Methoden und ermöglichen eine effektive betriebliche Qualitätsüberwachung von Schneidwaren.

A1 - Heyn, Andreas T1 - Short and long term degradation behaviour of Mg-1Ca magnesium alloys and protective coatings based on plasma-chemical oxidation and biodegradable polymer coating in synthetic body fluid N2 - The main problem limiting the application of magnesium alloys as biodegradable implant material is its high degradation rate. In order to slow down the corrosion rate an extrusion process and specific coating systems based on plasma-chemical oxidation (PCO) and organic dip coating with poly(ʟ-lactid-co-caprolacton) (PLLC) were applied on Mg–1Ca magnesium alloy. The additional PLLC coating is used to delay the start of substrate corrosion, while the purpose of the PCO coating is to decrease the substrate corrosion rate. The corrosion behaviour was investigated in synthetic body fluid (SBF) through measurement of the hydrogen evolution rate in long term tests and polarisation and electrochemical noise measurements in short term tests. The results showed significant differences between the cast and extruded alloys and a decrease of the corrosion rate due to corrosion product formation. The combination of both coating systems resulted in a significant delay of metal substrate corrosion and all coating systems showed good correlation between short and long term tests. The combination of the three investigation methods provides the possibility to gain more information about the degradation behaviour and break down of protective coatings.

A1 - Heyn, Andreas T1 - Investigations of the aqueous corrosion of pretreated magnesium alloys by means of electrochemical noise measurements N2 - An important possibility to improve the corrosion behaviour of magnesium alloys is the application of protective coatings. The quality of such coatings depends mainly on the pretreatment and the exposure conditions after pretreatment. Since magnesium surfaces change much faster under atmospheric conditions than those of almost any other technical material, it is necessary to pay special attention to this particular feature. The activity of acid-pickled surfaces of the magnesium alloys AZ31 and AZ91 in dependence on the exposure time and the humidity conditions was investigated with electrochemical noise (EN) measurements. In addition to pickling, plasma chemical vapour deposition processes open new possibilities for an economical, as well as ecologically quite safe, pretreatment. The results of EN investigations after acid pickling as well as specific plasma oxidation treatments of the two magnesium alloys after exposure to air with different humidities are presented.

A1 - Kranzmann, Axel T1 - Corrosion behavior of steels for CO2 injection N2 - The process chain for Carbon Capture and Sequestration (CCS) includes tubing for injection of CO2 into saline aquifers. The compressed CO2 is likely to contain specific impurities; small concentrations of SO2 and NO2 in combination with oxygen and humidity are most harmful. In addition, CO2 saturated brine is supposed to rise in the well when the injection process is interrupted. The material selection has to ensure that neither CO2 nor brine or a combination of both will leak out of the inner tubing. In this comprehensive paper the investigated materials range from low-alloy steels and 13% Cr steels up to high-alloy materials. Electrochemical tests as well as long term exposure tests were performed in CO2, in brine and combination of both; pressure was up to 100 bar, temperature up to 60 °C. Whereas the CO2 stream itself can be handled using low alloy steels, combinations of CO2 and brine require more resistant materials to control the strong tendency to pitting corrosion. The corrosion behavior of heat-treated steels depends on factors such as microstructure and carbon content. For different sections of the injection tube, appropriate materials should be used to guarantee safety and consider cost effectiveness.

T1 - Investigation of biodegradation behaviour of an Mg-1Ca alloy influenced by heat treatment and applying plasma-chemical oxidation layers N2 - The degradation behaviour of an Mg-1Ca alloy is investigated in vitro to figure out the possibilities of influencing the degradation behaviour of such an alloy by applying heat treatment as well as the use of a coating system based on plasma-chemical oxidation. It is shown that an optimised solution annealing (T4-heat treatment) can reduce the degradation rate while an additional ageing between 240 and 300 °C (T6-heat treatment) increases it. A coating generated by plasma-chemical oxidation reduces the degradation rate in the immersion test. Its effect is depending on the former heat treatment of the Mg-1Ca alloy as well as on the parameter during plasma-chemical oxidation.

The carbon dioxide (CO2) stemming from flue gases contains acid forming impurities, especially in the case of coal fired power plants. In the present work, the mobility and reactivity of acids in supercritical scCO2 was investigated. The corrosive attack of low alloyed carbon steel (material 1.0484) by water (H2O) alone in scCO2 was negligible. Nitric acid (HNO3) was very mobile and corrosive towards the carbon steel while sulfuric acid did not migrate through the scCO2 to react with the steel surface. Hydrochloric acid in scCO2 was very mobile and reactive towards both carbon steel and high alloyed test equipment. Gravimetric analyses revealed a severe material loss after corrosion in the presence of HNO3. Thickness measurements showed localized material losses.

Thus, heat treatment influences the corrosion resistance for injection pipe steels with 13% chromium and different carbon content: 1.4034/X46Cr13 and 1.4021/X20Cr13 in CO2 saturated saline aquifer water at 60 °C, 1 and 100 bar. X46Cr13 shows better corrosion resistance with respect to corrosion rate, number of pits and maximum intrusion depth. Low corrosion rates are obtained for steels with martensitic microstructures exposed to supercritical CO2 at 100 bar, whereas normalized steels show better corrosion resistance at ambient pressure.
