Martensitic stainless steel (UNS S41000), austenitic stainless steel (UNS S31000), and nickel-based
alloys (UNS N06625) specimens were exposed at 450°C and 7.6 MPa in pure supercritical CO2 (sCO2)
for a total of seven months. The exposure was performed in order to assess the effect of various
parameters on the oxidation of materials that may be used in oxy-combustion gas turbine systems
using sCO2. Materials and environment parameters such as composition, pressure and temperature
have been covered in the literature. However, engineering design will result in atypical conditions,
usually localized, that are well known to affect environmental performance of materials (such as
crevices, welds, stresses, or galvanic coupling). As a result of those atypical conditions, other types of
failure that have not been studied in those conditions may occur, such as stress corrosion cracking, or
crevice corrosion. Some of those failures resulting from engineering design are being presented in this
paper.
All martensitic stainless steel specimens (plain, welded, or coupled) had a matt black surface finish
after the two months exposure. The austenitic stainless steel and the nickel alloy were both discolored
after the exposure. Mass gain density inspection of the specimen was performed before and after
exposure. The highest mass gain density was found for the martensitic stainless steel (0.5 mg/cm2),
while it was close to the minimum measurable for the austenitic stainless steel and nickel alloy. The
mass gain rate density decreased significantly after the first 2 months exposure from 0.35 to less than
0.1 μg/(hr·cm2) from the fourth months onward. The welded specimens of martensitic and austenitic
stainless steels showed mass gain densities up to 50% higher than for the non-welded specimens. The
mass gain densities of the coupled materials (galvanic coupling or similar crevice coupling) were not
different from that of the single specimens but significant corrosion bonding was observed in all
couples.
