Usefulness of In-Situ Synchrotron Study on Scale Formation during CO2 Corrosion of Mild Steel: A Review by Sk, Mobbassar Hassan

“…It is the in-situ synchrotron study which made it possible to illustrate the appreciable time lag between the start of supersaturation and critical supersaturation limit. Ingham et al. [2] used in-situ synchrotron small- and wide-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS and WAXS) to demonstrate that the formation of crystalline siderite (FeCO3) during the corrosion of steel in CO2-saturated brine is actually preceded by the formation of a colloidal precipitate and an amorphous surface layer, both assumed to be amorphous ferrous carbonate. …”

Corrosion behavior of API X100 steel material in a hydrogen sulfide environment by Okonkwo, Paul C.

“…X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques were used to characterize the corroded surface. The results indicate that the corrosion rate of API X100 steel decreases with increasing H2S bubbling time due to the increase in H2S concentration in 3.5% NaCl solutions. …”
