Abstract

The corrosion resistance of structural alloys was investigated in conditions that simulate supercritical carbon dioxide sCO2 power fluid environments at 20 MPa and 550°C. Complementary air and Ar experiments were conducted at 1 atm. The alloys investigated in this study were as follows: Gr. 91, ferritic martensitic steel; 316L, austinetic stainless steel; HR 120, Ni-Fe based superalloy; and IN625, Ni based superalloy. The results for the air and sCO2 exposed samples indicated parabolic mass-gain with respect to time and sCO2 was more aggressive. The austinetic alloys exposed to sCO2 developed recrystallized zones under the oxide. The same alloys exposed to air showed signs of recrystallization that was detectable with TEM.
