Role of magnesium ions in reducing high temperature aqueous corrosion of carbon steel
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract Carbon steel is used as the primary heat transport system piping material in pressurized heavy water reactors. The carbon steel surfaces corrode during the high temperature operation. Enhanced wall thinning of the piping in locations of high velocity and neutron activation of corrosion products pose serious operational difficulties. Magnesium ion modified water chemistry resulted in significant reduction in the corrosion and corrosion release of carbon steel. The changes induced by magnesium ions in the various processes at the metal–oxide, oxide–solution interfaces, and subsequent restructuring of the oxide were identified by in situ electrochemical impedance spectroscopy.
