Description

Corrosion processes, specifically, erosion-corrosion, are one of the causes of damage occurring in NPP equipment during operation. Measures are taken to prevent erosion-corrosion wear of thermal-power equipment and pipelines. One such measure is the development and adoption of water chemistry regimes that are capable of forming a protective fi lm on a metal surface. Octadecylamine is one such reagent. The results of laboratory tests and industrial experiments studying the effect of octadecylamine on the development of erosion-corrosion wear of NPP equipment are presented. The octadecylamine-hydrazine water chemistry regime at octadecylamine concentration 0.5 mg/dm3 reduces the rate of erosion-corrosion wear by about 15-fold. The positive effect of micro-additions of octadecylamine is confirmed by direct erosion-corrosion studies performed at the Kola NPP.
