NACE “MR-01-75” And NACE “TM-01-77” Standards: Part I – Field Observations And Metallurgical Factors
No German title available
Brief description
This is Part I of a two-part series intended to provide background and a rational justification or supporting rationale for requirements leading to the development and publication of NACE(1) MR 0175 and ISO(2) 15156. Part I focuses on some of the metallurgical and processing requirements; specifically, Rockwell C 22 scale (HRC) limit, the various acceptable heat treatments and the 1wt% Ni limit for carbon and low alloy steels to minimize the threat of sulfide stress cracking (SSC) in H2S containing environments. Part II describes the testing and rationale behind the use of accelerated laboratory test procedures and their development to differentiate metallurgical behavior in sour environments.
