An investigation into the electrochemical corrosion behavior of X80 pipeline steel under different elastic and plastic tensile stress in a CO2-saturated NaCl solution has been carried out by using open-circuit potential, potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and surface analysis techniques. The results show that the corrosion rate of X80 steel first increases and then slightly decreases with the increase of elastic tensile stress, whereas the corrosion rate sharply increases with the increase of plastic tensile stress. Both elastic and plastic tensile stress can enhance steel corrosion by improving the electrochemical activity of both anodic and cathodic reactions. Moreover, compared with elastic tensile stress, plastic tensile stress has a more significant effect. Furthermore, electrochemical reactions for CO2 corrosion and mechanoelectrochemical effect are used to reasonably explain the corrosion behavior of stressed X80 steel in CO2 environment.

Natural gas transmission pipeline is prone to internal corrosion due to the combination of corrosive impurities in the pipe (such as CO2, H2S and chlorides) and applied pressure of the pipeline, which seriously affects the safe operation of the pipeline. In this work, the corrosion behavior of a typical X70 pipeline steel was investigated by using potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impendence spectroscopy (EIS). The polarization and EIS data under different CO2 partial pressures (0–1 atm), H2S concentrations (0–150 ppm), chloride concentrations (0–3.5 wt%) and tensile stress (0–400 MPa) were obtained. The results show that corrosion rate increases with the increase of CO2 partial pressure and chloride concentration, respectively, while first increases and then decreases with the increase H2S concentrations. The corrosion rate is less affected by elastic tensile stress. In addition, a quantitative prediction model for corrosion rate of natural gas pipeline based on adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) was established by fitting the experimental data which maps the relationship between the key influencing factors (i.e. CO2 partial pressure, H2S concentration, chloride concentration and tensile stress) and the corrosion rate. The prediction results show that the relative percentage errors of the predicted and experimental values are relatively small. The prediction accuracy of the model satisfies the engineering application requirement.

X80 Pipeline Steel

The microstructure and corrosion resistance in H2S environments for various zones of X80 pipeline steel submerged arc welded joints were studied. The main microstructures in the base metal (BM), welded metal (WM), coarse-grained heat-affected zone (CGHAZ), and fine-grained heat-affected zone (FGHAZ) were mainly polygonal ferrite and granular bainite; acicular ferrite with fine grains; granular bainite, ferrite, and martensite/austenite constituents, respectively. The corrosion behavior differences resulted from the microstructure gradients. The results of the micro-morphologies of the corrosion product films and the electrochemical corrosion characteristics in H2S environments, including open circuit potential and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, showed that the order of corrosion resistance was FGHAZ > BM > WM > CGHAZ.

Strength And Toughness

A type of X80 grade high strength and toughness pipeline steel was designed and researched. The strengthening mechanism of the steel was analyzed by SEM, TEM and XRD, and the CO2corrosion behavior of the steel was simulated by high-temperature and high-pressure autoclave. The result shows that the microstructure of the base metal is mainly acicular ferrite with a small amount of granular bainite. Acicular ferrite consists of laths which occlude and interweave with each other, and there are many dislocation and carbonitrides distributing in acicular ferrite, which made the pipeline steel have good strength and toughness. Under the simulation of the actual working conditions, the activity of reactants is low at 30°C, so the corrosion rate is smaller at this temperature; the maximum of corrosion rate occurs at 60°C; when the temperature increases to 90°C, the corrosion rate is lower than that of 60°C, that is because hindering corrosion effect which take by the acceleration deposit of corrosion product is better than the acceleration corrosion reactions.

Co2 Environment

Research in high pressure CO2 environment is important in oil and gas industry due to potential development of high pressure CO2 gas fields. Current understanding limits the use of carbon steel pipeline material in this high pressure CO2 environment due to excessive corrosion rates predicted by corrosion prediction software. The aim of this work is to elucidate the corrosion behavior of X52 steel in high pressure CO2 environment. Electrochemical methods of linear polarization resistance (LPR), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization techniques were employed to study the CO2 corrosion mechanism at high pressures of 10-60 bar at ambient temperature. Surface morphology and chemical composition of corrosion film was studied by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results obtained showed that the corrosion rates at high pressures were significantly influenced by CO2 pressure. However FeCO3 and F3C were the main component of the corrosion product film.

Purpose Pipelines are seriously corroded due to the close distance between pipelines and high voltage transmission lines. The purpose of this paper is to study the influence of alternating current (AC) on corrosion behavior of X80 pipeline steel in coastal soil solution. Design/methodology/approach The corrosion behavior of X80 steel under different AC densities in coastal soil solution was investigated by electrochemical measurements and image processing technology. Furthermore, a quantitative description model of AC corrosion through fractal dimension of corrosion image was established. Findings The results show that under low AC density the X80 steel is mainly uniform corrosion, and once AC density reaches 150 A/m2, the corrosion morphology gradually turns to pitting corrosion with irregular circle. For another aspect, the fractal dimension of corrosion images shows that the two/three-dimensional fractal dimension increase with the increase of AC density, presenting a linear and an exponential relationship respectively. In addition, the variation of the three-dimensional fractal dimension is the same as that of average corrosion rate. The threshold of the increasing trend of fractal dimension as well as corrosion type is 150 A/m2. Originality/value The investigation provides a quantitative method to describe AC corrosion morphology through fractal dimension. Furthermore, the method is of benefit to process corrosion images automatically.

X80 Steel

The long-term corrosion rate of X80 steel in an acidic red soil was monitored in situ by using a precise electrical resistance (ER) test system. The corrosion characteristics of X80 steel were examined via SEM, EDS, and XRD. The results indicated that the corrosion rate determined from ER test was very similar to that obtained from the mass loss test. The ER test technique made it possible to predict the long-term corrosion rate of steel in soil in situ. The corrosion rate of X80 steel in acidic red soil was about 0.0902 mm/a at 38 weeks, but the corrosion rate was dropped to 0.0226 mm/a after 5 years. The final corrosion product layer was composed mainly of FeOOH,γ-Fe2O3, and FeCO3.

The passive films formed on X80 and X70 pipeline steel in 0.5 mol·L-1NaHCO3solution are investigated by potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and the corrosion resistance of both steel is compared. The results show that X80 steel has a much lower passive current density than X70 steel. EIS measurements indicate that the film formed on X80 steel is much more compact and uniform than that of X70 steel. Mott-Schottky analysis demonstrates that the passive film of X80 steel has a lower donor density and a thicker space charge layer than X70 steel. These factors lead to a better corrosion resistance for X80 steel than X70 steel.

To protect steel structures, zinc coatings are mostly used as a sacrificial barrier. This research aims to estimate the dissolution tendency of the electroplated and zinc-rich cold galvanized (ZRCG) coatings of a controlled thickness (35 ± 1 μm) applied via brush and dip coating methods on the mild steel. To assess the corrosion behavior of these coated samples in 3.5% NaCl and 10% NaCl containing soil solutions, open circuit potential (OCP), cyclic polarization (CP), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) tests were performed. The more negative OCP and appreciably large corrosion rate of the electroplated and ZRCG coated samples in 3.5% NaCl solution highlighted the preferential dissolution of Zn coatings. However, in saline soil solution, the relatively positive OCP (>−850 mV vs. Cu/CuSO4) and lower corrosion rate of the electroplated and ZRCG coatings compared to the uncoated steel sample indicated their incapacity to protect the steel substrate. The CP scans of the zinc electroplated samples showed a positive hysteresis loop after 24 h of exposure in 3.5% NaCl and saline soil solutions attributing to the localized dissolution of the coating. Similarly, the appreciable decrease in the charge transfer resistance of the electroplated samples after 24 h of exposure corresponded to their accelerated dissolution. Compared to the localized dissolution of the electroplated and brush-coated samples, the dip-coated ZRCG samples exhibited uniform dissolution during the extended exposure (500 h) salt spray test.
