An X70 natural gas pipeline steel that is being considered for blended gas/hydrogen service was evaluated in a high-pressure hydrogen environment. Fracture toughness testing and fatigue crack growth rate were conducted according to ASTM standards the results are presented context of ASME B31.12 qualification. While reduction fracture observed, behavior within acceptable bounds service.

The oil and gas production has grown steadily, the care with its transportation grid needs to be maintained expanded. pipeline used in transport of by-product requires materials high mechanical strength, toughness, fatigue resistance. chemical composition distribution, amount, morphology final microconstituents steel are paramount importance once it will directly influence properties. fracture ...

The microstructure and microhardness of X70 pipeline steel were investigated after conducting different processing routes. was characterized using optical electron microscopy. Scanning microscopy equipped with backscattered diffraction (EBSD) transmission techniques applied for investigation thermal treatment conditions. Mechanical properties by a tester. results show that the mainly consists g...

In the present work, compound 3´-(2,6-dimethoxybenzoyl)-benzyl 2,6-dimethoxybenzoate (RM4) was evaluated for its ability as a corrosion inhibitor in 3% chloride medium and using an API 5L X70 steel working electrode. The electrochemical system by techniques such polarization curves (CP) impedance spectroscopy (EIS), finding through values obtained that efficiency of at 50 ppm reached 73.2% agai...
