4700 Tubes damaged by erosion-corrosion because of the erosive action of the soot blowers. (foto KEMA) (ref 50, Fig 1).
4701 The topotactically grown corrosion scale. In the oxide layer many sulphides are found. The sulphides have also grown in the cracks of the oxide. (foto KEMA) (ref 50, Fig 2).
4702 At the metal-oxide interface the element Cl is sometimes found. In a few cases this resulted in severe intergranular corrosion. (foto KEMA) (ref 50, Fig 3).
