Alloy 800 has been demonstrated to be susceptible to Pb-induced degradation such as stress corrosion cracking (SCC) in laboratory experiments. PbPb has been proposed to cause such degradation by affecting the formation of protective oxides comprising the passive filmsPassive film on the alloys. To understand the detrimental effects of Pb, Alloy 800 samples pre-passivated under all volatile treatment (AVT) conditions were exposed to alkaline environment of pH280 °C 9.5 at 280 °C in the absence and presence of Pb. The Pb-free and Pb-containing passivated surfaces, along with bare surfaces as control samples, were characterized using electrochemical and surface analytical techniques. The results contrast the susceptibility of Alloy 800Alloy 800 to Pb-induced degradation reported in literature, where experiments are usually performed on bare surfaces with excess Pb, typically as PbO, present in the aqueous solutions; suggesting that the effect of Pb depends on whether it is present in solution or incorporated in the film.
