Re: [MW:31923] SS-316L Rusting

Your issue has signs pointing to iron contamination. Iron contamination on the surface of the stainless steel will oxidize and begin the degradation processes on the contamination itself then upon the surface lattice of the metal. Effective passivation requires proper cleaning of the stainless steel followed by the removal of all free iron contamination from the surface. Our natural environment makes it so that the iron rusts immediately upon contact with air and or water. Once this happens, only a passivation treatment will stop the contamination and reverse the exposure. What I believe you need to focus on is the iron oxide removal process by means of either Phosphoric Acid or Acetic Acid treatment. I referred you to ASTM A967 on my previous email but am now recommending ASTM A380. Cannot stress enough how much cleanliness is needed for such situations. Hope it all works out for you.

Dear Jamie;

Yes, the passive treatment meets the requirement of the ASTM and vendor instruction for application steps, we need to know the main reason for these faults could be due to the below reason which under investigation:

1- Vendor product used is expired (Under verification with supplier)

2- Water used was contaminated (checked and found acceptable)

3- Environment condition such as sunlight (maybe is not the main reason)

4- Other

So for this case, we need to repeat the passive application or we should follow another applicable procedure to remove this rust and to avoid the recurrence. 

regards

Adnan

Did this material/fabrication receive chemical treatments such as, but not limited to, pickle and passivate treatment? If so, do you know what test method was used to prove conformance to specification? Do you have the inspection report from the pickling and passivation, if performed? Depending where you are located, ASTM A967 is an industry standard specification for such treatments that shall be followed, or its equivalence.

Dear Expert,

Please could you advise about the root causes and how we can repair and stop this rust that occurred after the degreasing of the SS 304L tank?

Appears to be fluid marks due to contamination or possibly poor pickling done.

Dear Expert,

We have received an email from our customer with pictures showing "rust" on the stainless steel (SS-316L) chambers.  Can anyone please tell me what you see in these pictures from your perspective?
