Abstract

The Critical Pitting Temperatures of Ferralium 255 (UNS S32550), Zeron 100 (UNS S32760), and SAF2507 (UNS S32750). were investigated to look at the effect of pH on the measured critical pitting temperature (CPT)and to understand the type of mechanism driving the formation and growth of the pits.Due...

The low copper alloy (Zeron) having the next highest measured CPT of 85oC.

This cap on the pit is likely to enable concentrations of the solution on the internal of the pit to be high enough to encourage corrosion of the highly corrosion resistance super duplex stainless steels. There is no visible difference in the structure of the lacy capped pit formed in the individual alloys.Time-lapse imagery (TLI) of the samples undergoing CPT sweeps was conducted to confirm that the pits were forming after the alloy transitioned through its critical temperature. The measured CPT of the individual alloys were consistent with those measured in the previous 3 investigations. The TLI was able to capture the formations of the pits as the material transitioned through its critical temperature. It is possible that re-passivation of the pits were captured in the TLI. The re-passivation is likely to be caused by the lacy caps of the pits being removed or degrading. The loss of the cap results in the internal environment of the pit to no-longer be conducive to continuation of the corrosion reaction.</abstract><type>E-Thesis</type><journal/><volume/><journalNumber/><paginationStart/><paginationEnd/><publisher/><placeOfPublication>Swansea University, Wales, UK</placeOfPublication><isbnPrint/><isbnElectronic/><issnPrint/><issnElectronic/><keywords>Super duplex stainless steel, Critical pitting temperature, lacy capped pits</keywords><publishedDay>13</publishedDay><publishedMonth>5</publishedMonth><publishedYear>2024</publishedYear><publishedDate>2024-05-13</publishedDate><doi/><url/><notes>A selection of content is redacted or is partially redacted from this thesis to protect sensitive and personal information.</notes><college>COLLEGE NANME</college><CollegeCode>COLLEGE CODE</CollegeCode><institution>Swansea University</institution><supervisor>Sullivan, J.
