Comparison of the Test Severity of HLP Test Solution and NACE TM0284-2016 Test Solution C in HIC Testing

Steel pipelines designated for the transport of oil and gas containing wet hydrogen sulfide (H2S) are faced
with the risk of sudden and severe cracking. In sour environments containing water and H2S, hydrogen
atoms, originating from the anodic dissolution of the material, can diffuse into the steel and induce severe
damage. Different forms of cracking may occur, such as Hydrogen Induced Cracking (HIC), Sulfide
Stress Cracking (SSC) or Stress Oriented Hydrogen Induced Cracking (SOHIC).

or HIC testing under mildly sour test conditions at fixed pH, NACE TM0284 Test Solution C has been
introduced in the 2016 revision of the test standard. For the same purpose the use of the HLP solution,
a highly acetate-buffered test solution, has been permitted by NACE TM0284 as an alternative. This test
solution is intended to become TM0284 Solution D. For this test solution a better pH stability at low H2S
concentrations has been reported, which reduces the amount of pH adjustment cycles. However,
concerns have been raised about the effect of the highly concentrated sodium acetate. Within this paper,
the actual test severity of both test solutions is compared. HIC tests in a wide range of mildly sour test
conditions have been performed for two large-diameter line pipe steels intended for mildly sour
environments in both test solutions. Based on the results of ultrasonic evaluation, HIC resistivity diagrams
based on pH and partial pressure of H2S have been defined. For the HLP test solution a higher test
severity can be observed for some test conditions. Although the HLP test solution shows a better pH
stability, one-to-one comparison of the results with NACE TM0284-2016 test solution C does not allow a
general conclusion.

The Risk of Using Cathodic Metallic Coatings on Carbon Steel for Internal Corrosion Protection in Corrosive Environments

Metallic coatings are frequently used on carbon steel and other metallic and non-metallic substrates for corrosion control, decorative or aesthetic purposes. The coating metal commonly used includes Zn, Al, Cu, Ni, Cr, Ag, Au, etc., singly or sometime in combination. When one of these metal coatings is applied on a metallic substrate, it is very important to consider the relative positions of the coating material and the substrate in the galvanic or EMF series.

Variables That Can Affect Pull Off Adhesion of Coatings

Adhesion is a physical property that is crucial in many coatings, sealants, and adhesive applications, be it automotive, marine, or aerospace for example. Pull-off adhesion testing is an important tool in evaluating a coating’s performance, particularly while comparing pre- and post-exposure results. No matter what the application, the method for testing adhesion along with selecting the appropriate testing criteria has been the subject of multiple studies and reviews in the historical literature.

Risk Based Approach to Corrosion Prevention and Control for US Army Acquisition

Army Regulation (AR) 11-42, Army Corrosion Prevention and Control Program, requires that program managers and engineers use a risk-based approach (RBA) to identify the corrosion susceptibility on critical components and the consequence to the overall system. Department of the Army Pamphlet (DA PAM) 11-42 provides an example of generic procedures for conducting a risk-based approach. The goal of this project was to develop a detailed, standardized process for conducting a risk-based approach during CPC planning.
