摘要

The SCC behavior of AerMet 100 ultra-high-strength steel under varying temperatures and simulated marine conditions was examined through electrochemical analysis, corrosion assessments, crack propagation experiments, and slow strain rate tensile tests. Findings reveal that AerMet 100 steel exhibits higher SCC susceptibility in the salt spray environment compared to the 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution, likely attributed to more oxygen availability. When the temperature increases from 5 °C to 45 °C, the plastic elongation percentage and reduction of area decrease to 30.2% and 28.1% in the 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution, while 6.0% and 19.0% in the salt spray environment. The thicker corrosion product film hinders the entry of hydrogen atoms, resulting in a lower da/dtII at 45 °C than at 5 °C in the 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution. In salt spray environment, higher temperatures promoted hydrogen diffusion and accumulation in the fracture zone, which caused da/dtII to increase from 3.1 nm/s to 27.3 nm/s.
