However, certain harsh environments require alloys that utilize the formation of even more protective oxide films to provide improved performance and longer lifetime. In these cases, an alumina scale becomes a viable solution to protect high-temperature alloys. This paper summarizes high-temperature oxidation and corrosion behaviors of several high-temperature Ni- and Co-base alloys tested under various high-temperature conditions, including short-term and long-term oxidation, cyclic oxidation, dynamic (burner rig) oxidation, water vapor oxidation, nitridation, and carburization at temperatures ranging from 871 to 1093 °C (1600–2000°F). The oxidation and corrosion behaviors are compared between the alumina-forming and chromia-forming alloys, and the results show that the alumina-forming alloys were significantly superior to the chromia-forming alloys for high-temperature oxidation and corrosion resistance in terms of oxidation and corrosion rate reduction, scale stability and adhesion, mass penetration suppression, etc. Based on the extensive tests, alumina scales were highly effective in resisting oxidation, nitridation, and carburization attacks, especially under severe oxidation and corrosion conditions. To further demonstrate the benefits of an alumina scale, an alumina-forming alloy with pre-oxidation heat-treatment was also studied in the nitridation test.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":724,"journal":{"name":"Oxidation of Metals","volume":"101 6","pages":"1315 - 1330"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141866553","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When switching from Ar-20%O<sub>2</sub> to air, the oxidation rates first increased during a short period, then decreased. This surge of mass gain following the introduction of air was attributed to N pickup, forming a nitride layer and a N-enriched zone in the alloy, below the oxide layer. The subsequent decrease of oxidation rate was attributed to the formation of nitride and/or N-rich zone, which both act as diffusion barriers for oxygen. Switching from air to Ar-20%O<sub>2</sub> caused an increase in the oxidation rate of the W-containing alloys, which was attributed to the consumption of this barrier. The gas change had no significant effect on the oxidation rate of Ti6242S, which formed a much thinner nitride layer in air.

Typically, under such conditions, metallic materials in contact with the C-rich atmosphere are degraded by a mechanism called metal dusting (MD). Ni-Cu-alloys do not form protective oxide scales, but their resistance is attributed to Cu, which catalytically inhibits the C-deposition on the surface. Adding other alloying elements, such as Mn or Fe, was found to enhance the MD attack of Ni-Cu alloys again. In this study, the effect of the Mn and Fe is divided into two affected areas: the surface and the bulk. The MD attack on binary Ni-Cu alloys, model alloys with Fe and Mn additions, and commercial Monel Alloy 400 is experimentally demonstrated. The surface electronic structure causing the adsorption and dissociation of C-containing molecules is investigated for model alloys. Analytical methods such as scanning electron microscopy combined with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, electron probe microanalysis combined with wavelength-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, and near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure measurements were used. The results are correlated to CALPHAD calculations and atomistic simulations combining density functional theory calculations and machine learning. It is found that the Cu content plays a significant role in the surface reaction. The effect of Mn and Fe is mainly attributed to oxide formation.
