Properties of pipe steels for CCS (carbon capture and storage) technology require resistance against the corrosive environment of a potential CCS-site (heat, pressure, salinity of the aquifer, CO2-partial pressure). The influence of austenitzing in heat treatment routines of two different injection pipe steels (1.4034, X46Cr13 and 1.4021, X20Cr13) was evaluated. Steel coupons were austenitized at different temperatures (900- 1050 °C) for different lengths of time (30-90 min) before quenching and annealing prior to long term corrosion experiments (60°C, 100 bar, artificial brine close to a CCS-site in the Northern German Basin, Germany). In general, fewer pits are found on X46Cr13. Comparing steels with 13% chromium each the higher carbon content of X46Cr13 (0.46% C) results in a lower number of pits compared to X20Cr13 (0.20% C). It is found that neither the carbon content of the steels nor austenitizing temperature has much influence, but local corrosion behaviour is most susceptible towards austenitzing time.
The ageing of Fe-Cr model alloys in 0.5 % SO2 and 99.5 % Ar atmosphere was investigated to aim in a fundamental and systematic analysis of the combined oxidation and sulfidation mechanism. The crystallization and reaction paths for oxide and sulfide formation were followed in-situ by energy dispersive X-ray diffraction (EDXRD) in an early stage of corrosion (30 s – 24 h). For this technique, high energetic white synchrotron X-ray radiation (10-100 keV) was used as radiation source. Diffraction pattern were collected continuously in an early stage of corrosion up to 24 h during the complete ageing experiment.
The crystalline phases, growing on top of the coupons, were identified directly via their specific dhkl values. The evolution of the extracted integral intensities of specific reflections of the corrosion products as a function of time access direct information about the kinetics of the nucleation and growth. The results presented here show for iron with 2 wt% Cr wuestite formation first. Wuestite vanishes after 10 min of reaction only and magnetite and hematite appear. Magnetite formation proceeds simultaneously with sulfide formation. Sulfides growth proceeds after an incubation time, which differs for low alloyed (2 wt% Cr) and high alloyed (9 wt% Cr) material.
