Abstract  

Materials served in marine environments are not only subjected to the Cl- and ocean currents, but also suffered from biological fouling. The effect of sulfate reduction bacteria (SRB) metabolism on the stress corrosion cracking (SCC) behavior of 2205 duplex stainless steel (DSS) in 3.5% (mass fraction) NaCl solution were investigated by means of potentiondynamic polarization technology, slow strain rate test (SSRT) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results showed that compared with the sterile solution, the presence of SRB promoted the anodic dissolution process of 2205 DSS in the bacterial solution and induced pitting, which facilitated cracks initiation. The SCC sensitivity of 2205 DSS was positively correlated with the concentration of SRB activity. The SRB activity concentration was the highest during their stable growth period, and the resulted metabolite H2S could induce the increase of brittleness of the steel. In this case, SCC sensitivity of 2205DSS was the highest. The SCC mechanism of 2205DSS in 3.5%NaCl solution containing SRB was the mutual control of anodic dissolution and hydrogen damage. In the presence of SRB, the ferritic phase in 2205DSS exhibited transgranular cleavage, while the austenitic phase exhibited ductile tearing, and the ferritic phase had higher SCC sensitivity.
