Abstract

The friction-induced microstructural evolution of Alloy 690TT tubes submerged in a high temperature pressurised water was investigated. Two typical local regions characterised by significantly different worn morphologies (resulting from the stress field and material couple) were investigated in detail. A thin third-body layer and a thick Fe-rich layer were observed and their oxidation behaviour was analysed. Moreover, the main oxide was spinel, whereas the amorphous band was only observed in the Fe-rich layer. The tribologically transformed structure is formed by the mechanism of discontinuous dynamic recrystallisation . Finally, the microstructural evolution of the two areas during fretting corrosion is discussed.
