On the extension of CP models to address cathodic protection under a delaminated coating
Cathodic protection models for pipeline and other metallic structures developed to address the presence of coating flaws or holidays do not account explicitly for the presence of a delaminated region surrounding a holiday. The potential drop in the delaminated region was obtained by solving the coupled, non-linear, partial differential, governing equations that describe transport and electrochemical reactions within the delaminated region. The results were used to develop an analytic expression for the potential drop across the delaminated region as a function of delaminated region length and the resistivity of the bulk environment exterior to the holiday. Expressions developed using this approach can be utilized by existing cathodic protection models to deliver improved potential distributions along protected metallic surfaces. The simulations were used to test the commonly employed assumption that transport by diffusion can be neglected in the delaminated region. The influence of diffusion on current was shown to be significant.
Mechanistic aspect of near-neutral pH stress corrosion cracking of pipelines under cathodic polarization
Abstract This paper investigates mechanistically stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of an X70 pipeline steel that is under cathodic protection (CP) in a near-neutral pH solution. It was found that there is a critical potential range, i.e., −730 and −920 mVSCE, where the steel is in a non-equilibrium electrochemical state, and anodic dissolution (AD) reaction may occur when the steel is polarized cathodically. When the applied potential is more positive than this range, SCC is AD-based; while the applied potential is more negative, SCC of pipelines is under hydrogen embrittlement (HE) mechanism. When the polarization potential is within the range, SCC of the steel is under the combined effect of AD and HE. Therefore, AD may still occur on pipeline steel that is under CP with the potential within this critical range, contributing to the cracking process.
