Laboratory Testing of Metals for Resistance to Sulfide Stress Cracking and Stress Corrosion Cracking in H2S EnvironmentsAvailable to Purchase

Addresses testing of metals subjected to tensile stresses for resistance to cracking failure in low-pH aqueous environments containing H₂S. The test method facilitates testing conformity so that data from different sources may be compared on an equal basis. Covers sulfide stress cracking (room temperature, atmospheric pressure) and stress corrosion cracking (elevated temperatures and pressures). Discusses environment cracking variability, test reagents and solutions, material properties, test vessels and fixtures, and testing at elevated temperature/pressure.
