Abstract

The increasing demand for lightweight, high-performance materials in marine and offshore engineering has driven the development of hybrid solutions combining metals and composites. This study investigates the stress corrosion cracking (SCC) and tribocorrosion behaviour of a novel hybrid wire consisting of a superaustenitic stainless steel (6Mo) outer shell and a carbon fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP) core. Microstructural analysis, residual stress measurement, and corrosion testing were performed to assess the integrity of the welded structure under harsh conditions. The results revealed that residual stresses and interdendritic segregation in the weld zone significantly contribute to SCC susceptibility, while the 6Mo steel showed improved corrosion resistance over 316L under tribocorrosion conditions but was more sensitive to the sliding frequency. These findings provide critical insights into the degradation mechanisms of metal composite hybrid wires and support the future design of corrosion-resistant components for offshore and structural applications.
