Abstract
Composition of corrosion layers on steel 20 in aerated solutions with hydrazine concentrations less than 11 ppm was studied at 50, 60, and 80°C in dynamic conditions by transmission Mossbauer spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction as supplementary technique. Corrosion rates were determined by gravimetric method. A comparison with corrosion in water at 80°C was made. The observed layers have not any protective character. For 0.1 m/s linear velocity, they are composed by nonstoichiometric magnetite, (Fe3−xO4,x=0.02–0.04) with lepidocrocite (γ-FeOOH) as secondary phase at 50°C. Haematite (α-Fe2O3) is observed at 60 and 80°C with a 19 nm particle size. It becomes smaller for higher velocity (0.7 m/s).
