ML00122 — Crevice Corrosion in a Subsea SystemM - Austenitic Stainless SteelP - CaseAp - Oil and GasCd - Crevice
The case where the electronic device was installed suffered a localized corrosion that allowed the seawater to wet the internal side, destroying it. The position where the leakage occurred originally presented a hole that was sealed with a plug and the corrosion occurred in a crevice condition.

Micrographic detail of the crevice corrosion in the case wall, showing that the structure is not affected and is fully austenitic with equiaxial grains typical of a solution annealed condition. Even non metallic inclusions did not accelerate corrosion since the extension of the inclusions was not too long and they were not connecting to others.
