The hydrogen-induced cracking (HIC) testing laboratory is vital for testing equipment used for steel components in oil pipeline systems. The equipment can accurately determine a steel specimen’s sensitivity to HIC. The testing process generally takes about 96 hours.
We evaluate the following aspects during the experimentation process: the crack sensitivity ratio (CSR), the crack length ratio (CLR), and the crack thickness ratio (CTR). The standards we use are NACE MR 0248 and GB/T 8650-2006. The whole experiment is conducted under no-stress conditions.
If you have special demands, the stress-oriented hydrogen induced cracking (SOHIC) can be performed according to NACE TM 0103-2003.
Lixin has introduced a full set of experimental equipment to offer laboratories with multiple, complete functions that can support advanced HIC detection techniques.
The transmission, distributing and switching device for medium gas and the accommodating system for the main gas source
The collection and purification system for the exhaust gas and the collection system for the residue
