A study of FAC mechanism based on detailed observation of oxide film

  • 1. Tohoku Univ., Graduated School of Engineering, Sendai, Miyagi (Japan)

Description

Effects of Cr content on flow accelerated corrosion (FAC) of carbon steels have been evaluated and their relation to oxide scale characteristics based on detailed oxide layer characterizations using transmission electron microscope with X-ray analyzer have been discussed. There is no 'threshold' concentration of chromium below which there is no effect of Cr content on the corrosion rate. Time dependency to chromium effect has also been not observed. Thickness of oxide layer does not affect the FAC rate in this experiments. (author)
