Abstract

This document describes the effects of carbonates and bicarbonates on corrosion resistance for API 5L X42 and Grade B steels, these steels were subjected to annealing, normalized, and tempered heat treatments, to then compare them with the supply material looking for differences microstructural, the formation of carbonates or bicarbonates is observed by microscopic techniques in SEM. For this research, indentation resistance tests (Vickers hardness) and impact tests (Charpy PIC450 testing machine) were carried out, the corrosion tests were done with a CO2 saturation for one hour at 99.9% purity, a electrochemical cell, and a Potentiostat / Galvanostat PGSTAT204, and the NOVA 2.1 Software was used for the analysis. From these tests, it was determined that when performing heat treatments, the hardness of the materials improves with respect to the supply material; analyzing corrosion resistance, API 5L X42 normalized steel presents an improvement of 2.54% with respect to the supply material and API 5L Grade B steel improves by 46.47% with respect to the normalized one. In conclusion, hardened API 5L Grade B steel has better corrosion resistance due to the


formation of Iron Carbonates and Calcium Carbonates, verified by EDS.
