Abstract: | The stress-corrosion-crack initiation and growth-rate response was evaluated on as-received, cold-worked, and aged Alloy 22
(UNS N06022) and titanium Grade 7 in 105 °C to 110 °C, aerated, concentrated, high-pH groundwater environments. Time-to-failure
experiments on actively loaded tensile specimens evaluated the effects of applied stress, welding, surface finish, shot peening,
cold work, crevicing, and aging treatments in Alloy 22. Titanium Grade 7 and stainless steels were also included in the matrix.
Long-term crack-growth-rate data showed stable crack growth in titanium Grade 7. Alloy 22 exhibited stable growth rates under
“gentle” cyclic loading, but was prone to crack arrest at fully static loading. No effect of Pb additions was observed.
This article is based on a presentation made in the symposium “Effect of Processing on Materials Properties for Nuclear Waste
Disposition,” November 10–11, 2003, at the TMS Fall meeting in Chicago, Illinois, under the joint auspices of the TMS Corrosion
and Environmental Effects and Nuclear Materials Committees. |
