Effects of temperature on SCC propagation in high temperature water injected with hydrogen peroxide

It has been reported that the corrosion behavior of stainless steels in high temperature water with hydrogen peroxide (H$$_{2}$$O$$_{2}$$) was different from those with O$$_{2}$$. To evaluate the effect of H$$_{2}$$O$$_{2}$$ on stress corrosion cracking (SCC), SCC growth tests were conducted in high temperature water injected with H$$_{2}$$O$$_{2}$$. In 100 ppb H$$_{2}$$O$$_{2}$$ at 561 K, an intergranular SCC (IGSCC) was observed only small portion of area near the side grooves of the CT specimen. In 100 ppb H$$_{2}$$O$$_{2}$$ at 453 K, however, IGSCC extended to the central region of the CT specimen. Effects of H$$_{2}$$O$$_{2}$$ on SCC growth behavior appeared stronger at lower temperature due to a reduction of the thermal decomposition of H$$_{2}$$O$$_{2}$$. Moreover, outer oxide layer of oxide film formed on the crack of the CT specimen was examined to estimate environmental situations in the cracks and a thermal equilibrium calculation was performed.
