There is interest in characterizing the corrosion behavior of Alloy 22 (N06022) as a nuclear waste container material. It has been reported that the presence of bicarbonate ions is necessary to induce stress corrosion cracking in Alloy 22. It has also been determined that the SCC susceptibility may be related to the appearance of a peak in the anodic polarization curves in these media at potentials below transpassive. The aim of this work is focused on studying the anodic behavior of Alloy 22 in different media containing bicarbonate and chloride ions in different concentrations and different temperatures. Studies were extended to four other alloys of the family of nickel alloys in order to study the effect of alloying elements on passivation anodic behavior and SCC.
