Effect of Some Sulphur Additives on The Degradation of 9Cr-1Mo Steel After Its 10 Years Service in The CCR Platforming Unit
Abstract
The work shows the results of the tests of 9Cr-1Mo steel, which was for 10 years operated in the CCR platforming unit in Group Lotos SA in Gdańsk, and then in the laboratory was sulphidised during 166 h at a temperature of 600 °C. Sulphidation was performed in a mixture of H2-H2S gases at the vapour pressure of sulphur 4.1·10-14 atm, so the order of magnitude of vapour pressure was less than that of the dissociation pressure of FeS. Although sulphidising took place in conditions which preclude any iron sulphide formation, research results have demonstrated that after 166 hour exposure in reaction mixture in 9Cr-1Mo steel produces iron and chromium sulfides. Sulphide precipitates form under a layer of fine carbides, located directly on the surface of steel. Formation of scale sulphide here is most likely caused by the penetration of hydrogen sulphide through the porous layer of carbides that increases the pressure of hydrogen sulphide. Thus the vapour of sulphur in apertures and narrow passages occurs between the layer of carbides and the rest of oversaturated carbon layer top, until its pressure value is reached allowing the formation of sulphide scaling.
