Sulphide stress corrosion in welded joints

Project Information

Grant agreement ID: 7210-KA-408

Project closed

Start date 1 July 1990

End date 30 June 1993

Funded under

• Medium-term guidelines (ECSC) "technical steel research", 1986-1990

Total cost € 266 000,00

EU contribution € 159 600,00

Coordinated by

CENTRO SVILUPPO MATERIALI SPA

Objective

The aim of this project is to investigate the possible effect of metallurgical variables such as chemical compositions and microstructure on sulphide stress corrosion cracking (SSCC) of line pipe steels. Fracture mechanics tests will be undertaken to measure resistance to crack propagation along with other laboratory tests to reproduce SSCC.
