Influence of friction on the local mechanical and electrochemical behaviour of duplex stainless steels.
2006
International audience; The electrochemical behaviour of ferritic and austenitic phases in duplex stainless steel (UNS S32304) and the modifications induced by straining during sliding were studied by potentiodynamic polarisation curves determined at the microscale in a 1MNaCl (pH 3) solution, using an electrochemical microcell. The mechanical properties and stress state of each phase were determined by microhardness and X-ray microdiffraction measurements, before and after straining. The results show that sliding generates elastic straining of the ferrite and plastic deformation of the austenite. The electrochemical behaviour of these phases is dramatically altered, inducing a reduction of…
Impact des conditions d'usinage sur la zone du matériau affectée par le procédé
2007
Colloque avec actes et comité de lecture. Internationale.; International audience; Les procédés d'usinage peuvent créer des contraintes résiduelles à la surface des pièces usinées et ainsi modifier la microstructure et la texture de la matière proche de la surface. De tels changements sont importants pour l'étude du comportement des pièces au cours du temps. Il est alors nécessaire de quantifier les contraintes résiduelles, les composantes de texture et de déterminer la microstructure induite par l'usinage pour comprendre et prédire le comportement des surfaces considérées. Dans cette étude, le matériau cuivre pur a été choisi et considéré comme un "système modèle". En tournage, l'influence…
Study of the mechanical effects on passivity breakdown by local probe techniques
2006
This paper aims at demonstrating that a relationship exists between surface stress and pitting corrosion. The surface stress field generated by polishing was first calculated using a thermo-mechanical model and a finite element code. Pitting corrosion tests performed at the microscale along the austenite/ferrite interface using the electrochemical microcell technique were then analyzed considering the microstructure and the residual surface stress field. Mechano-chemical criteria are proposed leading to an enhancement of pitting corrosion of duplex steels.
Electrochemical behaviour of copper-nickel alloys as immobilisation matrices for the storage of fission products in CO2-enriched synthetic groundwater
2013
International audience; The surface properties of nickel and copper alloys exposed to simulated French Callovo-Oxfordien ground-water (aerated and CO2-saturated solutions) have been evaluated from electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in conjunction with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The kinetic reactions and physical properties of the layers grown on the alloy's surfaces, change versus the Ni content in the alloys and the presence of CO2 in the solution. Nickel alloys retain favourable passive properties in such environments, whereas oxide products on copper alloys are insufficiently protective when formed in the absence of dissolved oxygen in the electrolyte. A maximum addition of 30…
A Mechanical–Electrochemical Approach for the Determination of Precursor Sites for Pitting Corrosion at the Microscale
2006
International audience; The influence of metallurgical defects and residual surface stresses generated by polishing on the pitting susceptibility of duplex stainless steels was studied by combining macro- and microelectrochemical measurements with thermal-mechanical simulation and metallography tests. It has been shown that pits initiate in both phases at metallurgical point defects (such as oxide inclusions in the ferrite and dislocation lines in the austenite). By contrast, the surface stress state was the driving force for pit initiation along the austenite/ferrite interface. Experiments at the macroscale revealed that this process represents about 40% of the total number of pits observe…
