Effect of NaCl and SO2 on the stress corrosion cracking of CMSX-4 at 550C
MATERIALS AT HIGH TEMPERATURES(2023)
摘要
In the pursuit of more efficient gas turbine engines, components are required to operate for longer times at elevated temperatures. This increased time in service, together with a complex loading regime, can expose the material to environmental attack. This work has demonstrated that the interaction of stress, NaCl and a sulphur-containing environment is critical to cause crack initiation in the early stages of the exposure and accelerated corrosion rates in CMSX-4 at 550 degrees C. The effect of having small concentrations of moisture in the gaseous environment or as water crystallisation in the salt is still to be investigated. A working hypothesis is that the interaction of alkali chlorides with a sulphur-containing atmosphere is the trigger to a self-sustaining cycle where metal chloride formation, vaporisation and oxidation lead to high amounts of hydrogen injection in a rapid manner and, therefore, hydrogen embrittlement.
