Abstract A small amount of PbO could induce the passive film of alloy 690TT unstable in the caustic solutions at room temperature. The immersion tests were carried out in high temperature lead-containing caustic solutions in a static autoclave. The results showed that alloy 690TT immersed in 10% NaOH+10 g/L PbO solution suffered from intergranular attack (IGA) at 330℃, and the specimens lost weight. The coarser the original surface of the samples, the more serious the samples suffered from corrosion. IGA was observed and developed as intergranular stress corrosion (IGSCC) with respect of residual stress. While no IGA was found for the samples immersed in 10% NaOH solution at 330℃.
