To study the effect of weld and defects on the corrosion behavior of nickel aluminum bronze (UNS C95810) in 3.5% NaCl solution, the weight loss, X-ray diffraction, optical microscope, scanning electron microscope and electrochemical test of the specimen with weld and defects were investigated. The results show that the presence of weld and defects increases the corrosion rate of bronze. Weld does not change the structure of the corrosion product film, but defects induce a lack of the protective outermost corrosion product in bronze. Weld makes the corrosion product film in the early stage more porous. Defects always produce an increase in the dissolution rate of the bronze.

The in-situ studies of the corrosion product film on nickel-aluminum bronze are significant for explaining the mechanism of its corrosion resistance. In this paper, the corrosion behavior of nickel-aluminum bronze and the formation process of the protective film in 3.5 wt % NaCl solution are systematically investigated. The results of scanning electron microscope analysis and electrochemical tests indicate that the corrosion resistance of nickel-aluminum bronze is improved due to the formation of the corrosion product film. The change of local electrochemical property on the corrosion product film during the immersion time is evaluated via in-situ scanning vibrating electrode technique, and it reveals the evolution rules of ionic flux in real time. The formation process of the protective film on different phases in nickel-aluminum bronze is observed directly by in-situ atomic force microscopy as height change measurements. The α phases at different locations present different corrosion behaviors, and the lamellar α phase within the α + κIII eutectoid structure gets more serious corrosion attack. The κ phases establish a stable and dense protective film in short time, preventing the corrosion attack effectively. The β′ phase, however, suffers the most serious corrosion damage until a protective film is formed after 150 min of immersion.

In this work, the corrosion behavior and surface reactivity of as-cast and heat-treated nickel aluminum bronze casting alloy (UNS C95800) in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution is investigated under stagnant and flow conditions. Increasing flow rate conditions are simulated using a rotating disk electrode from 0 to 9000 revolutions per minute (rpm). Optical micrographs confirm the decrease in the phase fraction of corrosion-sensitive β phase in the microstructure of C95800 after annealing, which, in turn, enhances the corrosion resistance of the alloy. Electrochemical studies including open circuit potentiometry, potentiodynamic polarization, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy are performed to assess the effect of flow rate and heat treatment on the corrosion of samples at 25 and 40 °C in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution. For both as-cast and heat-treated samples, increasing the flow rate (i.e., electrode rotating rate) linearly reduces the corrosion resistance, indicating that the metal dissolution rate is significantly affected by hydrodynamic flow. Increasing the solution temperature negatively impacts the corrosion behavior of the as-cast and heat-treated samples at all flow conditions.

Purpose This paper aims to under the laboratory environment, the corrosion behavior of X80 pipeline steel in oilfield injection water in eastern China was studied by immersion test. Design/methodology/approach First, the corrosion product film was immersed in oilfield injection water and the effect on the corrosion behavior and the corrosion reaction mechanism were constantly observed during this period. The effect was displayed by potentiodynamic polarization curve and electrochemical impedance spectrums (EIS) measurements. Second, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction were used to observe and test the corrosion product film immersed in the oilfield water for 30 days. Findings The results indicate that the tendency of metal corrosion becomes weaker at an early stage, but strengthened later, which means the corrosion rate is accelerating. Besides, it is indicated by impedance spectroscopy that with the decreasing of the capacitance arc radius, the reaction resistance is reducing in this progress. Meanwhile, the character of Warburg impedance could be found in EIS, which means that the erosional components are more likely to penetrate the product film to reach the matrix. The corrosion product is mainly composed of the inner Fe3O4 layer and outer shell layer, which contains a large number of calcium carbonate granular deposits. It is this corrosion under fouling that produces severe localized corrosion, forming many etch pits on the metal substrate. Originality/value The experiment chose the X80 steel, the highest-grade pipeline steel used in China, to conduct the static immersion test in the injection water coming from an oilfield in eastern China. Accordingly, the corrosion mechanism and the effect of corrosion product film on the corrosion of pipeline steel were analyzed and discussed.
