The mechanical properties of protective coatings produced by corrosion on the internal surfaces of pipelines transporting hydrocarbons have been investigated by indentation tests, which have revealed the spall or cracking attitude of the film. The role of material properties controlling the coating integrity and the main damaging mechanisms have been identified with the aid of the numerical simulation of the experiment.

Abstract

The mechanical properties of protective coatings produced by corrosion on the internal surfaces of pipelines transporting hydrocarbons have been investigated by indentation tests, which have revealed the spall or cracking attitude of the film. The role of material properties controlling the coating integrity and the main damaging mechanisms have been identified with the aid of the numerical simulation of the experiment.
