Abstract
This paper investigates corrosion behavior of Alloy C-22 in hot concentrated brines. The passive film behavior and localized corrosion properties of alloy C-22 as a function of nitrate and sulfate anions in concentrated chloride brines was investigated. Cyclic potentiodynamic polarization tests were used to study the general corrosion behavior of the alloy, Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) and Mott-Schottky (M-S) were used to examine the electronic properties of the passive films, and constant potential tests were done to study crevice corrosion initiation, propagation and stifling of the alloy. The aim was to investigate the correlation between the electronic properties of the alloy's passive film and the localized corrosion susceptibility of the alloy. The results showed that anions had major impact on the repair- repassivation behavior but did not cause significant effect on the properties of passive film when it was intact.
