damage from fuel ash corrosion.

Hydriding of titanium is a metallurgical phenomenon in which hydrogen diffuses
into the titanium and reacts to form an embrittling hydride phase. This can result
in a complete loss of ductility with no noticeable sign of corrosion or loss in
thickness. Galvanic contact between titanium and more active materials such as
carbon steel can have what affect?
a) promotes damage
b) insulates the galvanic system and decreases damage
c) insulates the galvanic system and decreases damage only if pure titanium is
used (not titanium alloys)
d) all of the above
A
5.1.3.2.3 c)
When connected to a more anodic material in cooling water:
a) titanium may suffer severe hydriding embrittlement
b) titanium may suffer severe hydriding embrittlement below 180°F (82°C)
c) titanium becomes immune to corrosion
d) titanium becomes almost immune to corrosion
A

What form of fatigue cracking develops under the combined effects of cyclic
loading and corrosion and are evidenced by ver little plastic deformation where
the final fracture may occur by mechanical overload accompanied by plaslic
deformation?
a ) corrosion fatigue
, b) mechanical (vibration) fatigue
c) thermal fatigue
d) all ofthe a bove

What could ammonium bisulfide corrosion also be called?
a) fuel ash corrosion
b) alkaline fuel ash corrosion
c) alkaline sour water corrosion

Typical HF alkylation units operate with 1% to 3% water in the acid, equivalent t o
an HF-inwater concentration of 97% to 99% and the temperatures are gener ally
below 150°F (66°C). Under these conditions wh at material is widely used for all
equipment except where close
tolerances are required for operation (i.e., pumps, valves, instruments)?
a) carbon steel
b) 300 series stainless steels
c) duplex stainless steels
d) nickel alloys
A
5.1.1.6.3 e)
Amine corrosion refers to the gener al and/or localized corrosion th at occurs
principally on carbon steel in amine treating processes. Corrosion is not cau sed
by the amine itself, but results from dissolved acid gases (COz and HzS), amine
degr adation products, heat stable amine salts and other contaminants. Amine
corrosion primarily occurs in which materials?
a) carbon steel
b) 300 series st ainless steels
c) ferritic stainless st eels
d) nickel alloys
A
5.1.1.1.2
What is the most important factor related to mechanical fatigue of a piece of
equipment?
a) material selection
b) equipment design
c) operating conditions
d) opera ting temper atures
B
4.2.16.3
Temper embrittlement primarily occurs in:
a) Some low alloy steels as a result oflong term exposure from 650oF to 1070oF
b) All carbon and alloy steels as a result of long term exposure from 650oF to
1070oF
