Corrosion Fatigue of U Bolt Pipe Clamp
M - Low Carbon SteelP - BoltAp - ShipCd - Corrosion Fatigue
Cm - Aspect Before AnalysisDf - Layer Detachment
Micrography of a longitudinal section of the sleeve, in a region where the surface layer starts detachment. This grey layer is the tugnsten carbide; and the white layer (1000 microns) is a stainless steel. In this case the first TS layer is sound. The substrate is white in the bottom of the figure.

Cm - As polished micrographyDf - Layer Detachment
Aspect of the male part of the coupling, a pin, presenting the thermal spray layer detachment (right side of the figure). The pin was manufactured in a superduplex stainless steel tubular forging; the external surface was partially coated by thermal spray and machined. The sealing is only elastomeric but a coating is required to avoid galling between the two materials of the coupling.

ML00147 — WC Layer Detached from a Cast Lean DuplexM - Lean Duplex Stainless SteelP - Centrifugal CastingAp - ShipCd - Lack of Sealing
Micrography of a longitudinal section of the sleeve, in a region where the surface layer was completely removed. In this position only the stainless steel layer is at the surface. That is why the sealing condition was lost. The substrate is white in the bottom of the figure.

ML00146 — Plastic Deformation of a SDSS Riser PinM - Super Duplex Stainless SteelP - PinAp - O&G Well DrillingCd - Bending
Micrography of a longitudinal section, at the damage surface of the pin, where the thermal spray layer was partially detached and broken. The through layer breaking is ductile, typical of an overloading condition caused by the localized bending of the pin.
