Sulfide stress corrosion cracking (SIC)
SSC is a form of
spontaneous brittle
breakdown in occurring in
high-strength alloys and
steels when it comes in
contact with humid
hydrogen sulfide as well as
sulfidic atmospheres.
Among the most prone to
sulfide stress cracking
include valve trim, blowout
preventer hard parts and
tool joints.
Scope:[4]
This standard defines material requirements for
resistance to SSC in sour petroleum refining and
related processing environments containing H2S
either as a gas or dissolved in an aqueous ( liquid
water ) phase with or without the presence of
hydrocarbon.
