摘 要:Nickel alloys containing optimum amounts of chromium(Cr),molybdenum(Mo) and tungsten(W) are widely used in the chemical processing industries due to their tolerance to both oxidizing and reducing conditions.Unlike stainless steel(SS),Ni-Cr-Mo(W) alloys exhibit remarkably high uniform corrosion resistance in major concentrated acids,like hydrochloric acid(HCl) and sulfuric acid(H2SO4).A higher uniform corrosion resistance of Ni-Cr-Mo(W) alloys,compared to other alloys,in concentrated acids can be attributed to the formation of protective oxide film of Mo and W in reducing acids,and Cr oxide film in oxidizing solutions.The localized corrosion resistance of Ni-Cr-Mo(W) alloys,containing high amount Cr as well as Mo(or Mo + W),is also significantly higher than that of other commercially available alloys.The present study investigates the role of alloying elements,in nickel alloys,to uniform corrosion resistance in concentrated acids(HCl,HCl + oxidizing impurities and H2SO4) and localized corrosion performance in chloride-rich environments using ASTM G-48 test methodology.The corrosion tests were conducted on various alloys,and the results were analyzed using weight loss technique and electrochemical techniques,in conjunction with surface characterization tools.
