T1 - Einfluss der Wärmebehandlung auf Mikrostruktur und Korrosionsverhalten kohlenstoffhaltiger nichtrostender Stähle N2 - Das Korrosionsverhalten von kohlenstoffhaltigen martensitischen nichtrostenden Stählen variiert in Abhängigkeit der Wärmebehandlung (WB) und der damit eingestellten Mikrostruktur deutlich stärker als bei kohlenstoffarmen ferritischen und austenitischen nichtrostenden Stählen. Bei erhöhtem Kohlenstoffgehalt bestimmt die diffusionsgesteuerte Bildung und Auflösung von Chromkarbiden die Verteilung von Chrom und Kohlenstoff im Gefüge. Bisher lag der Fokus von Forschungsarbeiten zum Einfluss der WB auf dem Anlassen im allgemein bekannten Sensibilisierungsbereich dieser Werkstoffgruppe zwischen 200 °C und 700 °C und der dort auftretenden Chromverarmung. Mit der gezielten WB des X46Cr13 (1.4034) wird gezeigt, dass Temperatur und Dauer beim Austenitisieren sowie die anschließende Abkühlung beim Härten das Korrosionsverhalten schon vor dem Anlassen signifikant beeinflussen. Auf der Basis von thermodynamischen Berechnungen wurden definierte WB ausgewählt, um gezielt unterschiedliche Volumengehalte von Chromkarbiden im Gefüge und somit auch unterschiedliche Chrom bzw. Kohlenstoffgehalte im Mischkristall zu erzeugen. Anschließend wurden die resultierenden Gefügezustände hinsichtlich Chromkarbidanteil und Härte verglichen und das Korrosionsverhalten mit der elektrochemisch potentiodynamischen Reaktivierung (EPR) sowie durch einen Schnelltest mit der KorroPad-Prüfung untersucht. Dabei konnte ein direkter Zusammenhang zwischen WB, Mikrostrukturänderungen und Korrosionsverhalten festgestellt werden. Mit steigender Austenitisierungstemperatur wird der Anteil an Chromkarbiden reduziert und der Kohlenstoff- und Chromgehalt der Matrix erhöht, bis eine vollständige Auflösung der Chromkarbide gegeben und die chemische Nennzusammensetzung der Legierung im Mischkristall erreicht ist. In der direkten Folge wird die Ausbildung der für nichtrostende Stähle charakteristischen Passivschicht erleichtert und das Lochkorrosionsverhalten verbessert. Die Abkühlrate hat neben den Austenitisierungsparametern ebenfalls einen großen Einfluss auf das Korrosionsverhalten. So führt eine langsame Abkühlung an Luft zu einer Chromverarmung im Gefüge, die eine deutlich erhöhte Lochkorrosionsanfälligkeit zur Folge hat. In Abhängigkeit der WB von kohlenstoffhaltigen nichtrostenden Stählen können Mikrostruktur, Härte und Korrosionsbeständigkeit in einem weiten Bereich variieren. T2 - 20.

Hard coated steel components are used in a wide application range, mostly for protective, wear resistant and decorative purposes. Despite of these coatings being regarded as relatively dense, there is always a high risk of localized corrosion when a coated low alloyed steel component encounters a surrounding high humidity atmosphere or even an aqueous medium. An approach to enhance the corrosion properties is the addition of magnesium to physical vapor deposited hard coatings, like TiN. It has been found that there is a remarkable increase in corrosion resistance in dependence of magnesium content of the TiMgN coating and its surface properties. In this work the authors will explain the underlying corrosion protection mechanisms by means of electrochemical and analytical studies. The positive impact of magnesium in the coating relates on its preferred dissolution vs. steel. This causes the potential to shift to more negative direction with respect to the steel substrate and additionally leads to a temporarily passivation of the steel due to alkalization of the surrounding electrolyte by formation of magnesium hydroxide.

T1 - Visualisierung werkstoffbedingter Lochkorrosionsanfälligkeit durch die KorroPad-Prüfung N2 - Mit der KorroPad-Prüfung können lochkorrosionsanfällige Oberflächenbereiche einfach, schnell und kostengünstig nachgewiesen werden. Das KorroPad ist damit für Hersteller, Verarbeiter, Anwender und Forscher eine interessante Alternative zu zeitintensiven Auslagerungsversuchen und elektrochemischen Untersuchungsmethoden, die normalerweise bei der Charakterisierung nichtrostender Stähle zur Anwendung kommen. Mit der KorroPad-Prüfung können auch werkstoff- und gefügebedingte Einflussfaktoren sichtbar gemacht werden, die Lochkorrosionsanfälligkeit verursachen. Um dies zu veranschaulichen, wird die Nachweisgrenze des KorroPads an Referenzlegierungen mit abgestuftem Chromgehalt aufgezeigt.

A1 - Rosemann, Paul T1 - Age-hardening behaviour, microstructure and corrosion resistance of the copper alloyed stainless steel 1.4542 N2 - The copper alloyed stainless steel 1.4542 (X5CrNiCuNb16-4) is used in different areas due to its good mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. Strength and corrosion resistance can be adjusted by the heat treatment, which is of importance for the application of this alloy. The mechanical properties (strength and hardness) are attributed to the dispersive precipitation of the copper rich ε–Phase. The additional precipitation of chromi-um carbides can reduce the corrosion resistance. Different ageing states were produced to investigate the precipitation behaviour with various methods. Furthermore, the influence of cold-rolling on the precipitation behaviour was studied in comparison to a solution annealed state without deformation. The microstructure was studied by SEM and the variations of hardness and magnetic proportion were characterised. The electrochemical potentiodynamic reactivation (EPR) was used to determine the corrosion resistance and detect chromium depletion in all heat-treated states. The results show that a work hard-ening accelerates the precipitation rate, while ageing at 600 °C reduces the corrosion resistance due to chromium depletion. T2 - 20.

T1 - Corrosion investigations on zinc coatings by using gel-type electrolytes N2 - A new approach to the assessment of the corrosion behaviour of zinc coatings under atmospheric conditions can be achieved using gel-type electrolytes as an alternative to standard aqueous test electrolytes. Gel-type electrolytes allow minimally invasive corrosion investigations on zinc coatings. They also provide the possibility to carry out corrosion investigations onsite. By using gel-type electrolytes corrosion-relevant characteristic values such as corrosion currents and polarization resistances can be determined. These allow to describe the formation and the stability of the formed corrosion product layers under various climatic conditions. With this knowledge, a prediction of the zinc coating life cycle is possible. In this contribution, the value of gel-type electrolytes for corrosion research on zinc coatings is presented.

T1 - Reversed austenite for enhancing ductility of martensitic stainless steel N2 - Quenching and partitioning (Q&P) heat Treatment increases the deformability of high-strength martensitic steels. Therefore, it is necessary to have some metastable austenite in the microstructure, which transforms in martensite during plastic deformation (TRIP effect). The austenitic-martensitic microstructure is gained by an increased austenitization temperature, water quenching and additional partitioning. The partitioning enables local carbon diffusion, which stabilizes retained austenite and leads to partial reversion of martensite to austenite. The influence of partitioning time was studied for the martensitic stainless steel AISI 420 (X46Cr13, 1.4034). In line with these efforts, metallographic, XRD and EBSD measurements were performed to characterize the microstructural evolution. The mechanical properties were tested using tension and compression loading. Additional corrosion investigations showed the benefits of Q&P heat treatment compared to conventional tempering. The reversion of austenite by the partitioning treatment was verified with EBSD and XRD. Furthermore, the results of the mechanical and corrosion testing showed improved properties due to the Q&P heat treatment.

Eine große Rolle bei diesen Reaktionen spielt das Feuchtigkeitsangebot an der Metalloberfläche, welches nicht zwingend mit einem sichtbaren Wasserfilm einhergehen muss. An der Atmosphäre bilden sich an sauberen Metalloberflächen bei etwa 80 % relativer Luftfeuchte, bei versalzten Oberflächen auch schon ab etwa 25 % r. F., Feuchtfilme aus. Im Feuchtfilm laufen grundsätzlich die gleichen elektrochemischen Reaktionen ab, wie diese von wässrigen Medien bekannt sind. Dabei geht das Metall zunächst in Ionenform und in nachgelagerten Reaktionen in einen thermodynamisch stabilen Zustand in Form unterschiedlichster Oxid- und Hydroxidverbindungen über. Die so entstehenden Korrosionsprodukte können im Feuchtigkeitsfilm begrenzt löslich oder unlöslich sein und lagern sich auf den Oberflächen der Konstruktionswerkstoffe häufig als feste Korrosionsprodukte ab bzw. wachsen dort auf. Je nachdem wie die Korrosionsprodukte strukturell zum Untergrund passen, können sich dichte, sehr gut haftende Schichten ausbilden oder poröse, dicke Schichten ohne nennenswerte Haftung aufwachsen. Wachsen dichte, porenfreie Schichten mit guter Haftung auf, die im umgebenden Medium unlöslich sind, wird die weitere Auflösung des Metalls stark gehemmt. Man spricht dann von der Ausbildung schützender Deckschichten bzw. von Passivschichten auf welcher der Korrosionsschutz und damit die Dauerhaftigkeit vieler Konstruktionswerkstoffe beruhen. Kaesche bezeichnete die Passivität sehr treffend als „optimalen Grenzfall des Korrosionsschutzes durch Schichten von Korrosionsprodukten“. Aus technischer Sicht hält Kaesche eine Unterscheidung von Deckschichten bzw. Passivschichten für nicht zwingend erforderlich, da beide die Korrosionsgeschwindigkeit in gleichem Maß herabsetzen können. Die Übergänge zwischen den meist dickeren und dadurch sichtbaren Deckschichten und den meist dünnen, nicht sichtbaren Passivschichten sind fließend. T2 - 18.

The reason was discussed quite fiercely between failure analysts and material suppliers. In the end the discussion lead to the solution: inductive welded pipes of a certain sulphur content were prone to selective corrosion. The history of the arguments is discussed using old communications between Wilhelm Schwenk and Wolfgang Stichel, who later published the results in a paper unfortunately only I german. Thus the knowledge got lost and new cases based on the same material problems are observed in application of so-called C-Steel piping systems. Failure cases are shown.

T1 - The Effect of Different Polyaniline Types in Silicon Dioxide Containing Coatings for Carbon Steel Protection in Artificial Geothermal Brines N2 - According to the results of the experiments carried out, the following points can be concluded: 1. Exposure tests showed that specimens with the addition of SiO2 particles and polyaniline particles exhibit better corrosion resistance than specimens with the addition of only polyaniline particles or binder only. 2. Open circuit potential measurements showed that in the beginning of the experiments, both coatings had an open circuit potential 100 mV higher than carbon steel. Within one day of immersion, the potential of carbon steel increased significantly, indicating the formation of oxide layer. After extended exposure the carbon steel potential sat between PS1 (which had higher potential) and PS2 (which had a lower potential) and all three were in the range –600 mV to –500 mV vs Ag/AgCl. 3. Both coatings PS-1 and PS-2 were degraded with increasing exposure time, shown by the decrease of absolute impedance value at low frequency range after 2, 4, and 6 days exposure. 4. Potentiodynamic test was performed after 3 hours and 6 days exposure, and it was shown that the coating in the initial stage exhibited more passive behavior than the specimens exposed for 6 days.

T1 - Towards defining reasonable minimum composition thresholds – impacts of variable CO2 stream compositions on transport, injection and storage N2 - The collaborative project “Impacts of impurities in CO2 streams captured from different emitters in a regional cluster on transport, injection and storage (CLUSTER)” aimed to set up recommendations on how to define “reasonable minimum composition thresholds” that CO2 streams should meet when accessing CO2 transport pipeline networks. Within CLUSTER, we investigated potential impacts of CO2 streams with different and temporally variable compositions and mass flow rates along the whole CCS chain. Investigations included, amongst others, impacts on: Corrosion of pipeline steel, pipeline network design and related transport costs, alteration of well bore cements, pressure development and rock integrity, geochemical reactions, and petrophysical and geomechanical rock properties. All investigations are based on a generic CCS chain scenario. In this scenario, CO2 streams are captured from a spatial cluster of eleven emitters and collected in a regional pipeline network. Emitters comprise seven fossil fuel-fired power plants equipped with different capture technologies, two cement plants, one refinery and one integrated iron and steel plant. In total, 19.78 Mio t CO2 (including impurities) are captured in the emitter cluster annually. The combined CO2 stream is transported in a trunk line with a length of 400 km (100 km of these offshore) and is injected into five generic storage structures. The storage reservoirs are saline aquifers of the Buntsandstein. The investigations revealed beneficial and deteriorating impacts of different impurities and combinations thereof. Overall, no fundamental technical obstacles for transporting, injecting and storing CO2 streams of the modelled variable compositions and mass flow rates were observed. Based on the results, the CLUSTER project team recommends not to define “minimum composition thresholds” for CO2 streams as strict threshold values for each individual impurity in the stream. Instead, CO2 stream compositions and variabilities for specific CCS projects should be constrained with regard to a set of parameters including i) the overall CO2 content, ii) maximum contents of relevant impurities or elements, iii) acceptable variability of CO2 stream composition, and iv) impurity combinations to be avoided.

T1 - Polyaniline/silicon dioxide containing coating for use in artificial geothermal brines N2 - Geothermal brine is a complex system containing a wide variety of dissolved salts resulting from the condition s in a geothermal well. These fluids lead to corrosion in pipes and other parts of geothermal system construction and necessitate intense research efforts in finding new suitable materials. Carbon steel is susceptible to corrosion in geothermal brine especially when it is exposed to a high temperature and high-pressure medium, which is considered to be an aggressive environment. An artificial geothermal water, bas ed on a brine composition found in Indonesia, was used to investigate the performance of high alloyed materials. The electrolyte has pH 4 and contains 1,500 mg/l Cl-, 20 mg/l SO4 2-, 15 mg/l HCO3 -, 200 mg/l Ca 2+, 250 mg/l K+, and 600 mg/l Na+. In order to protect the bare material in geothermal application, it is necessary to either use high alloyed material s or coatings. In this research, a coating system consisting of polyaniline and silicon dioxide was investigated regarding its behavior to protect carbon steel. In detail, the effect of SiO2 and polyaniline (PANi) addition was evaluated by exposure and electrochemical tests for 7 days, i.e. electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and open circuit potential (OCP ) at room temperature and 150 °C with 1 MPa pressure .

Exposure tests were performed at both normal pressure and high pressure where CO2 is supercritical or in dense phase. The drop, 1 ‑ 10 μL in volume, was prepared by dropping CO2 saturated ultra-pure water onto the surface of steel coupons in a one-liter-autoclave. The CO2 gas stream, simulating the oxyfuel flue gas with varying concentration of impurities (SO2 and O2 ), was then pumped into the autoclave to observe the condensation and corrosion impacts of impurities. Comparable exposure tests were carried out with the same gas mixture and the same volume of water as vapor to observe the drop formation and the corrosion process that follows. The wettability and stability of drops on the surface of steel coupons in CO2 supercritical/dense phase environment was evaluated additionally by contact angle measurement.

A1 - Bettge, Dirk T1 - On the corrosion behaviour of co 2 injection pipe steels: role of cement N2 - Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is identified as an excellent technology to reach the target of CO2 reduction. However, the safety issue and cost-effectiveness hinder the future of CCS. For the reliability and safety issues of injection wells, the corrosion resistance of the materials used needs to be determined. In this study, representative low-cost materials including carbon steel 1.8977 and low alloyed steel 1.7225 were investigated in simulated pore water at 333 K and under CO2 saturation condition to represent the worst-case scenario: CO2 diffusion and aquifer fluid penetration. These simulated pore waters were made from relevant cement powder to mimic the realistic casing-cement interface. Electrochemical studies were carried out using the pore water made of cement powder dissolved in water in comparison with those dissolved in synthetic aquifer fluid, to reveal the effect of cement as well as formation water on the steel performance. Two commercially available types of cement were investigated: Dyckerhoff Variodur® and Wollastonite. Variodur® is a cement containing high performance binder with ultra-fine blast furnace slag which can be used to produce high acid resistance concrete. On the other hand, Wollastonite is an emerging natural material mainly made of CaSiO3 which can be hardened by converting to CaCO3 during CO2 injection. The results showed the pH-reducing effect of CO2 on the simulated pore water/aquifer (from more than 10 to less than 5) leading to the active corrosion process that happened on both 1.8977 and 1.7225. Electrochemical characterization showed negative free corrosion potential and polarisation curves without passive behaviors. The tested coupons suffered from pitting corrosion, which was confirmed by surface analysis. Interestingly, basing on the pit depth measurements from the tested coupons and the hardness of cement powder, it is suggested that Variodur® performed better than Wollastonite in both aspects. The electrochemical data was compared to that resulted from exposure tests to give a recommendation on material selection for bore-hole construction.

This study presents preliminary work on the possibilities of using Al2O3 sol-gel coatings for corrosion protection of martensitic stainless steels in geothermal environments. Al2O3 sol-gel coatings were applied on UNS S42000, which is known to be susceptible to uniform and localized corrosion. The coated steel specimens were then tested in two types of artificial geothermal water, which simulate the geothermal fluids found in Sibayak (SBY), Indonesia, and North German Basin (NGB), Germany, respectively. SBY has pH 4 and 1.5 g/L of chloride ions, whereas NGB has a pH of 6 and 166 g/L of chloride ions. All experiments were carried out in autoclaves at 150 °C and 1 MPa under the deaerated condition. Evaluations were performed by investigating the surface profiles of both uncoated and coated steels before and after the corrosion test using a Laser Scanning Microscope (LSM) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Finally, Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) was performed to compare the corrosion resistance of Al2O3 coated steels in SBY and NGB solutions. It was observed from the corrosion test that Al2O3 coatings are more suitable for use in the geothermal water with a higher pH.

Detailed analysis using EDS line scan shown the slow diffusion of Chloride, suggesting why pitting did not happen after 20 weeks. To mimic the passivated steel surface, the steel coupon was passivated in simulated pore solution having pH 13.5 for 42 days. The passivated coupon was further exposed to NGB solution for 28 days. Electrochemical characterization was performed along the exposure processes to reveal the change in impedance, indicating the corrosion resistance of steel casing/mortar interface.

T1 - Factors Influencing Droplet Corrosion in Dense Phase CO2 N2 - Recent studies have shown that even at a very low concentration of impurities (less than 100 ppmv of SO2, NO2, O2 and H2O) the droplet formation and condensation of sulfuric and nitric acids in dense phase CO2 are possible and observable. To reveal the mechanism of droplet corrosion in dense phase CO2 at high pressure and low temperature, further studies on factors that affect wettability and resulting corrosion behaviors of transport pipeline steels are needed. In this study, effects of surface morphology were investigated by varying surface roughness of carbon steel coupons exposed to CO2 stream containing impurities to measure the wettability by contact angle and to observe the condensation as well as possible droplet corrosion that followed. Other considered factors were: pH of the droplet, temperature, droplet volume, and exposure time.
