Failure Analysis of 316L Air Cooler Stainless Steel Tube in a Natural Gas Production Field
In spite of the excellent resistance of stainless steel (SS) towards uniform corrosion, overcoming various localized corrosion could be a real challenge. This work presents an analysis of the failure behavior of 316L SS air chiller tube with a peripheral crack used in a Qatari gas company in Qatar. Macroscopic failure characteristics were analyzed by means of visual inspection, digital imaging ...
متن کاملElectrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) Study of Modified Type-316L Stainless Steel (SS) as an Effective Biomaterial for Orthopedic Implant Applications
Volume 3 • Issue 4 • 1000e108 J Nanomed Nanotechol ISSN:2157-7439 JNMNT an open access journal For centuries, metals and alloys have been used in substitution for anatomical structures owing to their extraordinary mechanical properties [1]. Type 316L Stainless Steel (SS) is known to be widely used for implantation purposes in orthopedic surgery due to its corrosion resistance, effective cost an...
متن کاملFractographic Investigation of Failure in Stainless Steel Orthopedic Plates
Plates of austenitic stainless steel are often used in orthopedic surgery for fixing ends of the broken bones and for repairing fractures. The paper analyzes a premature breakage of six plates for fixing broken bones with different patients during their recovery. Each plate's breakage can induce serious aftermaths such as a new surgery, unexpected undesired complications and a prolonged healing...
متن کاملPassivation and corrosion behaviours of AISI 316L stainless steel as implant materials in simulated blood environment
The purpose of the study was evaluation of corrosion resistance of steel 316L used in cardiologic treatment mainly for vascular stents. The study analysed influence of electrochemical and chemical treatment of the steel surface, including sterilisation with pressurised water steam, on its corrosion characteristics. The tests were performed in artificial blood plasma simulating human blood envir...
متن کاملThe Effect of Surface Treatment on Corrosion behavior of Surgical 316L Stainless Steel Implant
The AISI 316 L Stainless Steel (SS) specimens were exposed to passivation surface through two different processes including; holding in 40-vol% HNO3 at temperature of 60 ºC for 30 min and 15-vol%H2SO4 at ambient temperature for 1 hour. The corrosion behavior of specimens was evaluated in physiological solutions by electrochemical in vitro tests through linear an...
