Erosion-corrosion behaviour of nichel resist type D-4 alloy

This study investigated the effects of salt concentration and particle impingement angle on the erosion-corrosion rate of Ni-Resist Type D-4 alloy. Ni-Resist Type D-4 samples were tested under three different particle impingement angles (30o, 60o, and 90o) and subjected to two different sodium chlor...

description This study investigated the effects of salt concentration and particle impingement angle on the erosion-corrosion rate of Ni-Resist Type D-4 alloy. Ni-Resist Type D-4 samples were tested under three different particle impingement angles (30o, 60o, and 90o) and subjected to two different sodium chloride (NaCl) concentrations (0% and 3.5%). The erosion rate of samples was calculated as a function of contact area and mass loss. In addition, the surface morphology of eroded samples was analysed using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) methods. Results showed that erosion rate and surface morphology of Ni-Resist Type D-4 alloy have varied significantly based on different experimental conditions of salt concentration and particle impingement angle. Erosion rate of Ni-Resist Type D-4 alloy increased with an increase in particle impingement angle. In addition, the rate of material loss was accelerated when subjected to an increase in NaCl concentration of 3.5%. In-depth analysis of the surface morphology for the different Ni-Resist Type D-4 samples under different conditions of NaCl concentrations and particle impingement angles were well correlated by the erosion rates and the material loss mechanisms involved.
